And I can easily afford my truck and toys.

I rest my case! Got to keep up with the neighbors, eh, Bill? Most
people that have the things they want, and then some are the last to
try and brag about it. My in-laws are perfect examples.


I did not brag about my truck, but that and my boat are very nice. You
were
the guys stating I could not afford my stuff, and you stated all
californians were in over their head.

Damn this is funny!! You are so damned stupid you can't get ANYTHING
correct! Example:
Please show where I said that you couldn't afford your stuff.
Please show where I said that ALL californians were in over their head.


Tell that to my former neighbor who
cashed out $80,000,000 on the IPO, or another who has in the range of
$240,000,000. I picked the wrong startups for the really big payouts,
but I
am not broke. And you? A scud draftsman.

Please show how you know I'm a draftsman.
If you're not broke, how come you are hiring yourself out as a
handyman?

So, are you saying that you live in a neighborhood of
multi-millionaires, Bill?


Because I got bored after I retired at 59. And for years I worked with
Habitat for Humanity. I like doing the work, and there are lots of older
folks who can not afford to hire a worker. So part of my labor is dirt
cheap. As to the neighborhood.

In addition to the business parks and retail centers, Pleasanton's downtown
is home to a number of fine-dining, casual, and ethnic restaurants,
specialty retailers, and service businesses. A redesign of Main Street in
the 1990s emphasized pedestrian traffic and outdoor dining.

Also, according to the latest U.S. Census information, Pleasanton is the
wealthiest midsize city in the nation. In 2005, the median household income
in Pleasanton was $101,022, the highest income for any city with a
population between 65,000 and 249,999 people.
