"...every day, hot and sunny, today, hot and sunny, tomorrow, hot and, for the rest of the... hot and sunny, every single day, hot and sunny. And they love it. "Isn't great, every day, hot and sunny?" What are you, a fucking lizard? Only reptiles feel that way about this kind of weather. I'm a mammal, I can afford coats, scarves, cappuccino and rosy cheeked women"

That's the thing though, on the peninsula it's NOT always hot and sunny. Sometimes it is, but mostly it's close to perfect weather. 70s, 80s. Sun.

That said though real estate there has gone absolutely berserk, not worth the weather.

Did Bill Hicks say this of SF ? LA ? California in general ?

Starting around San Mateo and going north from there through the city all the way to Sausalito (and probably beyond), there are numerous microclimates. It's not at all like the LA that I know.

he was saying it about Los Angeles, when making fun of LA types. He was performing (as he did nearly half his career) for a British audience.
