I'm still new to all this, I'd love to meet up with more experienced people and ask questions! I'm in Long Beach but I could travel for that.

So that this doesn't become another of my threads that just die a slow death...

Who just wants to do lunch?
The more the better.
We're not likely to get more than a few the first time out.

This is sort off of topic (I'm in Sacramento), but I wanted to ask you guys how you like living in San Diego. Even better if you lived other places.

Yikes! Almost missed this one, and I love Stone Brewery. I'm in.

What are you going to call it? Fish tacos and beer?

JasonR. I hate when people answer questions with "it depends" when you are just trying to get a feel for how a city is, but it depends. Unlike cities in the Midwest that have a more homogenous culture, SD is made up of a lot of different sub cultures. Depending on whether you are single or married, rich or poor, young or old you will find your experience will vary a lot.

Overall though it is pretty cool. There is a lot of stuff to do here and it is less of a rat race than LA. I've lived in lots of places in California and I've found that any place you live here, there are going to be some amazing things with some pretty bad drawbacks.


What I love the most about SD:
It is very easy to meet people. A lot of people aren't from here, so people are more open to talking to someone new.


What I hate the most about SD:
People that live here tend to be transient, meaning that they want to live it up here as long as they can but eventually they move somewhere else. There are college kids who just want to party, military guys here for a few months, tourists, super rich people, etc. So a lot of the people you grow close with end up moving away.

Jon. What if we give it a week or two and meet on the weekend.

In the mean time we can pm everyone we see that is near by and invite them. I seem to remember a lot of people from San Diego, we might get a pretty good turn out.

I'm in Orange County but could be easily coerced into throwing down some food and networking at Stone. Just give me some dates to work with...

Jon. I think we should all just pm people we see that give a location close to San Diego. I won't see everyone, but collectively we can probably cover a lot of people. Some may get duplicate PMs but I don't think they will mind.

I was just trying to pin the PM duties on the new guy :)
I vote we do it the fast-lane way, just do it and let those that miss it complain.
