34. This piece is so beautifully written & your children and wife are very
blessed to have you as a father and life partner. I went to San Diego in early February and I was struck by the same things that struck you in Dublin. The newest or rather phoniness, the affluence, the SUVs, and the absolute realization that I just was such an alien to this culture. I was stunned by the acute vapidness of it all.

Dublin FYI is a very wealthy Republican enclave and it's denizens are quite representative of the small group of elites that have benefited from Bush's slash and burn economy.

I loved the Bay Area when I lived there too. SF is a wonderful city. Keep writing.
