I love what Stockton contributed to in my life, I was born there, my sons were born there, met my wife there, God called me and changed my life there, some of my best friends still live there, etc. My parents still live there.

Actually I still work in Stockton or about 7 miles outside of it.

I second this motion! But we always said that Stockton and Bakersfield were the two "arm-pits" of California! ...and Keith, I was born there too ... along with a lot of other major events in my life -- like graduation, college and my wedding...
