Do you know what happened this week back in 1850, 158 years ago?


1. California became a state.


2. The state had no electricity.


3. The state had no money.


4. Almost everyone spoke Spanish.


5. There were gunfights in the streets.

So basically, it was just like California is today, except the women had real boobs and the men didn't hold hands.

Mostly agree.  ...except for number three.

The state now owns or is entitled to, most of the resident's money, and collects from everyone who visits.
