AC is a dump unless you are in one of the resort hotels. The rest of the time, you feel like you can get shot at any moment.

Dude Alpine is one of the richest zip codes in the US! Pdiddy, Mary J Blige, Jay-z, Chris Rock, Jonny Damon, and a ton of others live there!


And Chris Rock has a VERY funny bit about it...

This will take the wintry precipitation threat away and lead to just plain rain.


Now that is a highly professional way to relay the weather forecast. :roll:

I will give you an example of how race affects my life. I live in a place called Alpine, New Jersey. Live in Alpine, New Jersey, right? My house costs millions of dollars. [some whistles and cheers from the audience] Don't hate the player, hate the game. In my neighborhood, there are four black people. Hundreds of houses, four black people. Who are these black people? Well, there's me, Mary J. Blige, Jay-Z and Eddie Murphy. Only black people in the whole neighborhood. So let's break it down, let's break it down: me, I'm a decent comedian. I'm a'ight. [applause] Mary J. Blige, one of the greatest R&B singers to ever walk the Earth. Jay-Z, one of the greatest rappers to ever live. Eddie Murphy, one of the funniest actors to ever, ever do it. Do you know what the white man who lives next door to me does for a living? He's a DENTIST! He ain't the best dentist in the world...he ain't going to the dental hall of fame...he don't get plaques for getting rid of plaque. He's just a yank-your-tooth-out dentist. If he were a black dentist, he'd have to have invented teeth! See, the black man gotta fly to get to somethin' the white man can walk to!

I just got a call that I don't have to be in until 10 tomorrow. Now it could just be that some guys in my department think it would be funny to see me stay home, but I believed them.

Not sure if that means we're all on a 2 hour delay or they just think us geeks are wimps.
