WE LIVE IN SILICON VALLEY ...  

... Our commute time is 45 minutes and we live just 8 miles away from work.

... We stopped asking how much things cost but, ask "How long will it take?"

... We know vast differences between Thai, Vietnamese, Chinese, Japanese, Cantonese, and Korean food.

... Our home computers contain mostly software that is not on the consumer market yet.

... we go to "The City" on weekends but don't live there because we like our cars.

... we think that "I'm going to Fry's!" is an acceptable excuse to leave the office for a while, and our boss does too.

...We know that Interstate 280 North runs West, and 680 North runs East.

... We don't say "Hi, what's up" anymore but "Hi, what's your URL?"

.. We have more bandwidth in our garage than most major universities.

... No one brings radio's or TV's into work :)

... We had personal web sites long before you ever even heard of the internet.

... The most successful relationship of our life is with someone we have never met in person.

... When we see a guy wearing a propeller beanie walking on the beach at Santa Cruz, we don't laugh, we stop and pay homage, because we know he's a rich programmer who's stock just went public.
