Well, I for one am glad you left. Anyone who starts a post by using the words 'liberal', and 'left-wing' and then follows up with a ten-page essay that lists everything that is wrong with the city clearly thinks WAY too much about politics. Personally, I think it's just too expensive. Every other reason you gave was absolutely irrelevant to me. Good luck in your new location, but please leave your political views elsewhere.

I think Al Gore visited Lakewood park (in Sunnyvale Lakewood Village area) when he ran in 2000. I did not know both Bill Clinton and Al Gore visited in 1993.
What a wonderful video!
I love sunnyvale!
An extremely helpful visual and more interactive representation of Sunnyvale's history.
such a beautiful video.
My home town.

"the police department is severely under staffed, the fire department the same"
If you lived there for 53 years you'd know they're the same people.

VHS material. So many good memories - Police Academy, Married with Children, and many, many more. 😀
It's sad that the big tech has become so evil.

That's so weird that someone else also watched this around the same time I did
