I keep hoping to see the elusive green flash on your sunset clips.

It would be one thing if “all you needed to do was build an upper and lower wall” but is there a guarantee you can even do that? After you get done with the city permits you have to go through a whole “mitigation” process with the coastal commission and then the surf riders are going to get their piece of flesh before they’ll ok it, right?
Those houses on the bluff are absolutely amazing, but how do you sleep at night when the dirt is eroding under your multi million dollar gem hour by hour?
Maybe the owners have absolutely no concept of the natural phenomenon of erosion. 🙂

Santoni shoes? You should be driving a Maybach.

Looks like a good neighborhood for a “sky hook” salesman.

Why do people think that ocean racket is desireable while freeway racket is a nuisance?
Couple that with the deteriorating shoreline, sky-high prices, and boatloads of people jamming beach streets and I just don’t understand the appeal.

The constant white noise of the ocean is 100 times more preferable than the freeway. There’s no semis hitting their air brakes at night on the ocean. It’s a much better view as well and the beach offers a range of activities while the freeway offers none of that.
If you’re a beach lover then it’s far more preferable to already be at the beach, than trying to be one of those jamming into the beach and finding parking etc.
The biggest reason to put up with some inconvenience is that view. Take a look at that view at the end. Sitting out on your porch with a margarita and watching that sunset is a pretty nice way to end the day. If I had the money to comfortably afford one of those places, I’d be buying. Maybe not the best investment in the end, but not everything in life needs to be an investment.

I was watching the video and scrolled down to post, and then I hear “Hey Jude”.
You’re simply the best, Jim! I’ll always remember your kindness for you didn’t have to do that. I’m pondering changing my (screen) name from “Susie” to “Beatles4ever”. *Chuckle* Is that possible?
Beatles? Best group ever, imo, and yeah, even my kids have Beatles favs on their iPods. (My son put 223 Beatle songs on mine.) On 09-09-2009, a local radio stations played the Beatles for hours. My son said it was “sick” when I told him I knew all the lyrics.
Jim, it’s just good you can’t hear me singing along as I finish up this post. Now back to our regularly-scheduled Real Estate Land…

You crack me up, BottomFisher! And Hendrix isn’t just known for his music. When I visited my daughter up at college recently, I bought a couple “quote” wall hangings. She thought the following was perfect for these times, and I loved it too. Here it is:
“When the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace.” -Jimi Hendrix-

For any Beatles fans, check out this 1968 live TV appearance I found on YouTube. Awesome with the audience participation!
