I never ever took the bus in OC. I was advised not to. That place is more freeway-driven than even L.A., and you have to drive, because everything is strip-malls, except for the small downtown areas of all thirtysomething towns, and you can almost never find parking at most of those except in Orange.
For those Republicans who didn’t like the ideas in the previous thread, I have an alternate suggestion that is almost guaranteed to get you back in power. Ready? Here it is:
