LOPEZ: LA LA THIS!

As transplants from the Northeast Corridor, we are keenly sensitive to the slings and arrows of those who chose to remain 'back east' in the winter cold and tight closed places (as opposed to the wide open ones).

It seems when easterners, particularly the New York City breed—always more outspoken—come out here they break into two camps; the complainers and the converted.

The battle rages.

Today, in the LATimes, Steve Lopez takes aim at the ones who stayed behind (as represented by the NYTimes), the ones who came here to complain, and those of us who became instant LA/SoCal boosters.

They Still Actually Like Clichés?

Lopez is a prolific columnist and has the habit of getting right up the nose of a lot of people in public life. He has been hilariously funny and insightful about our governator.

He goes from sad to serious to hilariously funny; a wide range guy.

Not to miss him.
