Roommates from Hell, the outrageous Clifford Newman
Trump's advisor Peter Navarro in San Diego, bad taste in La Jolla, Bingoland in East County, too Carlsbad for words
Trisha got drunk and decided to handcuff herself to me. She dragged me around the room.
Roommates from Hell
Later that morning I called Carolee and described how I made love to her husband on her jungle-print sheets and gave her vivid details of our evening and our conversations. Rick and Carolee deserved each other. Then I made arrangements to move to California and put those two far from my life.

Clifford Newman
You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll wonder, what the Hell is this?
He placed flyers advertising One Night... ($7.11 per copy by mail) in several North County retail stores, restaurants, and gas stations. (Clifford weighs about 300 pounds, and under his signature on the flyers, he had typed, “Your little fat buddy.”) Last June, he publicized the book in a National Enquirer classified ad.

Peter Navarro and Lynn Schenk, April 1996. Lynn is a tough, intelligent, articulate, and stunning blonde who looks, acts, and sounds perfect for politics.
Peter Navarro fights Lynn Schenk, Susan Golding, Nancy Casady
Let me first confess that throughout the campaign, I had a mole working in the Bilbray camp, and please don’t give me a hard time about that either because it’s also a standard campaign practice. In fact, when C-Span broadcast a feature on our race, we saw at least five people in Bilbray’s headquarters who, at one time or another, had successfully infiltrated our volunteer network on behalf of Bilbray.

"The snow one? That would be about... $85,000."
La Jolla's Bohemian rhapsody
Isn’t that a little-known Renoir sitting there coyly in a comer all by itself? An unfamiliar one to be sure. but. well, there is the poppy field, and there is the little girl in a straw boater with a sky-blue silk band ...and there is the unmistakably French woman, in bouffon sleeves and crepe de chine, holding a parasol. There is no question about it. Even the flowering grass is indisputably Renoir.

Suddenly it occurs to him he is not just on a small road in the middle of nowhere on the edge of Dehesa.
An alien's adventures in Bingoland
Has he come all the way from the Soviet Union with that horrible accent to play bingo here in El Cajon? An intense maternal generosity now animates them, and they spontaneously confess that they play it at Dehesa just about every minute they have free. The flap their hands. Is he a novice? He doesn’t even realize how much fun he’s going to have out there in Dehesa.

Encina power plant
Too Carlsbad for words
Time’s a-wasting, better eat quick, soon, go to that eyesorish fake? restored? neo-Victorian uggle at Elm and Carlsbad with one, two, three flags (U.S., Canada, Calif.; no Mexico), get there so early, so quick, they have no other choice but to turn you away — no dinner till five. Twelve minutes to kill, walk, keep walking, admire the kittens, piggies and puppies in antique-store windows, ceramic mini-mammals, metal mammals — the town’s lousy with ’em.
