I spent a few months on a dirt spread there, back in the early '80s. It was a lazy little town back then.

It's a shame that there are so many shootings and other acts of wanton violence these days, but we are not a bit surprised as to the cause.

My scanner showed an alert for Ventura County.  That never means something good.  Soooooo sad....

I use to drive past Thousand Oaks a lot when I lived in SoCal, it looked like a nice area. A lot of movies and TV shows, such as MASH, were filmed in the hills around Thousand Oaks..
