Happy to be Here

Robert Price has some interesting information in his column today. He wrote about the article in Rolling Stone attacking D.A. Ed Jagels and informed us that all copies of the magazine sold out within minutes of being released. According to the article, Jagels response to the Rolling Stone piece was, “I’m not going to worry much about what a dope magazine has to say about me” to which Price replied, “Maybe Jagels is confusing Rolling Stone with High Times. Speaking of which, it’s high time we all acknowledge Jagel’s talent for the effortless, if not always completely accurate barb.” I like Robert Price.

The other interesting bit of information he shared is that according to Men’s Health Magazine, Bakersfield is one of the happiest cities in the United States. The results were determined by sales of anti-depressants and number of suicides among other things. According to the magazine, Laredo Texas is the happiest city, Fresno is the 7th happiest city and Bakersfield is the 10th. My friend Chuck says Fresno is like Bakersfield’s older, uglier, stepsister.

I think Fresno is pretty much just like Bakersfield except they have more crime and a Whole Foods.
