Yea, Joe. You're obviously older than our "old school" friend.

You have a better memory, too.

Anthony, lots of manufacturers made them under license from Sony.

There's a lot of sight seeing this time of year around Mission Bay, Pacific Beach, Black's Beach....but if you're going to go in the water at La Jolla, shuffle your feet when you walk - a couple of dozen people got stung by Stingrays there on Wednesday

Do you like racing? There's drags at Qualcomm this Friday night
Race Legal | Qualcomm Stadium

And at Barona next Friday night
Barona 1/8th Mile Drags

The San Diego Chapter of SoCal Diesel Trucks meets @ Fuddruckers (8285 Mira Mesa Blvd. San Diego, CA) the 2nd and 4th Fridays of the month if you're wanting to see trucks

There's the San Diego Zoo, and the Wild Animal Park
Welcome to the San Diego Zoo

That's about all I've got...other than to suggest that you stay away from Tijuana.
