and many people like Beanie Baby Billionaire Ty Warner call it home.

I once ran into John Cleese at a Santa Barbara farmer's market. He was very 
pleasant about my brief interruption of his peaceful Saturday morning. One 
of only a handful of celebrities I've ever had any interest in meeting. Now 
there is a certain author though....
