Anyone visiting the Berkeley area should check out Telegraph Ave., the famous street directly south of the UC Berkeley campus. It's dirty, crowded, and filled with homeless people begging for pot money and crazy people shouting offensive remarks. Some people will be disgusted by it. Others will be swept up in a frenzy of excitement and rebellion and end up purchasing an offensive t-shirt which they will probably never wear again from one of the many street vendors. Notable stops along this street include: Cheese & Stuff (the best value sandwich ever), Cafe Intermezzo (the biggest salad ever), and Smart Alec's (the worst excuse for food ever), Amoeba Music, and Cody's Bookstore.

I’d rather go hit up San Francisco***! I pride myself in being a liberal. In fact, I’m an atheist, and not much of a patriot, but I’ve done more than my fair share for “God and Country” during my short 6 years in the Navy. However, if …… Berkeley, CA
