A bit of California trivia (from my in-box)

by Pat S Dec 18, 2003 4:44AM PST

Do you know what happened this week back in 1850?

California became a state. The state had no electricity. The state had no money. Almost everyone spoke Spanish. There were gun fights in the middle of the streets.

So, it was just like California today... except that the women had real breasts.
