I went to school at Stanford, and just moved up to Sacramento, so I'm pretty set as NorCal. Stanford's nice as a school, housing prices around there are simply ridiculous. One of my friends lived in a garage for 5 months. His roommate was a Miata.

My explanation for The 5 has always been this: To get anywhere in LA requires at least 3 freeways. Think about verbally giving directions: "Take two oh five to one five to four oh five". The "to" can easily be misinterpreted as a "two," so saying "the" before the freeway number is a neccesity for clarity. My SoCal girlfriend has almost got me saying "the" 5, but I won't let that become permanent.

I also have a date in the city and sort of need ideas, I'm picking her up around Broadway and Embarcadero for lunch and some other afternoon thing. I haven't really done much in the actual city of SF. I thought about the SF MOMA, but the current featured exhibit looks a little depressing for a first date.

I've searched the thread for "date" and "broadway" and come up with very little, sorry if this has been covered before.
