San Diego

Can someone please confirm if Ron Burgandy is based on a real anchorman from San Diego? The so-called news anchors in San Diego are so dopey and flakey that there's no way Ron Burgandy is an entirely fictional character.



News idiots aside...

On our first day in San Diego, after wandering around Ocean Beach and having dinner in our favorite Mexican restaurant there (where after 2 years the waitress recognized us and remembered my usual order) and wistfully thinking about how much we loved that neighborhod, we walked down the pier, over particularly high waves splashing some spray up onto us, and we saw dolphins. It was the first time I'd ever seen dolphins in the wild, in their natural setting, away from an aquarium or zoo. It was so awesome. It was like Ocean Beach was telling us to come back, showing us what we're missing by not living there anymore.

The rest of the trip was pretty great, but nothing beats dolphins.
