    Anyone like that GuppyHouse?

    9.25% Sales Tax in O.C.

    Here is my thing about the tax increase. . . IT IS NOT THAT BIG OF A DEAL. I will have to scrunge up the extra penny when I get my double cheese burger. . . Also, with respect to the California Republicans who cry so much about "spending", it is a big sham. I was listening to KPCC a...
