    As a native of "Cali" I find it interesting that the only people who seem to use that term to refer to California are those who don't live here.

    I don't mean that perjoratively and I don't find it particularly offensive--not like those folks in the Bay Area who go ape shit when someone innocently refers to San Francisco as "Frisco".

    It is an interesting term that I first noticed some friends back east using about 10 years ago.

    Hmmmmmmmm, wonder why it hasn't caught on amongst the local populace.

    I'm going back to Cali, to Cali, to Cali...

  3. dude   22 years ago

    To test this hypothesis, anyone know where LL Cool J is from?

  4. Dave Straub   22 years ago

    LL is from Queens, Hollis to be exact, if I recall correctly.

  5. Jason Ligon   22 years ago

    It is a far sight better than "The 'Natti".

    Egad, I hate that one ...

  6. steve   22 years ago

    I hear that Arnold beer has a bold flavor that will really grab you.

    Ba-dum!

    Thanks, I'll be here all week. Tip your waitress.

  7. JD   22 years ago

    With a name like "Governator", I would have thought it would be a bock or doppelbock, which would be appropriately Germanic.

  8. Voyager   22 years ago

    Is the beer rich and full-bodied?

  9. bobo   22 years ago

    There was a micro brewery serving a Terminator Stout some 10 years back on my last visit to Portland, probably the same brewers with an Arnold fixation.

  10. Douglas Fletcher   21 years ago

    Well it probably tastes better than that Billy Beer ever did. Not that a piss beer named after Billy Carter was anything but fitting, god rest his soul.

  11. MattG   21 years ago

    After watching Arnold's State of the State address tonight, I can tell you that he's about 85% libertarian.

    The libertarian wave is on its way. Government overregulation has gotten so out of hand that people aren't standing for it any more.

    The largest state in the nation has a libertarian governor. And as California goes, so goes the nation.
