I've not even been over then...I simply have no interest in reading more crazy. All I have to do is turn on the TV to virtually any channel (sans Boomerang or Home Shopping) and there is crazy being talked up, like it's main stream. Same with a local traffic channel. Open my browser to Yahoo...crazy. LA Times...crazy. Go to work...crazy.

So I'll stay right here...there is plenty of news and discussion to keep me more than satisfied.

And if the crazy gets to me (or you) lurk into THE BEST Cooking forum in the Universe...right here at DU. That will warm your insides with great recipes and food discussion...the regulars are lovely, friendly and helpful.

Leave it to wonderful California Peggy to point out where home really is!
