lol...have you ever even been out here?  You realize you just said the equivalent of "i think Corona is better than Irvine"? Now, if you said "i think Valencia is better", or "i think Thousand Oaks is better" --- yeah, sure...lets discuss. But Simi?  You might want to visit Simi Valley before...

Hey Panda --- little birdie told me you were back; great to hear from you and glad to hear things are going well in Atlanta. Funny thing, I know two separate families (both Korean) that have also made the move to the Atlanta area in the past couple of years --- one family from Irvine, the other...

So following up on this, Bones. Sorry it has been a few days. At any rate, I did manage to take a quick ride around the GP and PP on Wednesday, and after seeing first hand, I will agree with your assessment above 100%. PP is in fact quite far removed from the GP proper, and in particular the...

This.

You are clearly the most reasonable and educated member of that PP community. Can I suggest you speak to some of your neighbors and maybe help them see the value in taking a different approach to this campaign?  The NIMBY "NOT IN GP, NOT IN IRVINE" drumbeats come across very shrill, and...

That's fair. I've never really assessed the distances to specific areas of the park --- but I promise to take a ride around tomorrow while I am in the neighborhood.  If I'm wrong I'll come back and say so. But honestly, even though I am (obviously) in favor of the memorial, I do understand the...

Wow, somebody told me I should come back and check this thread out. Good to see still a healthy debate down there in Irvine. I'll be in town for some meetings on Wednesday. Hopefully I have time to cruise by the future cemetery to see what all the fuss is about. So I'm not going to say anything...

Agree as well. And for the record I am everything I have ever claimed to be.  I have never hid behind my computer, I know MANY on this board personally. And even though I've been gone four years, I'm sure I've logged more miles in Irvine than 75% of the people on this board. I left your fair...

What makes you think I don't, bones? Is there something I said to indicate I don't volunteer for or contribute to VA organizations? I thought this thread was about the cemetery?  If you have a thread on TI about VA health care I would be glad to participate if you would point me to it.

The irony of it all is I really don't care about Irvine, Cal Court.  I only came back to this board after three years because somebody told me I was being talked about, and I wanted to have a little fun with old friends.  As a matter of fact --- even after I saw this mess of a thread I at first...

eyephone, I will have to join IHO and say I don't think you get it.  Nobody is arguing yaliu or anyone else's rights to petition or protest.  I am well versed in those rights; remember I was one of those charged with upholding it. Nobody is suggesting yaliu go to jail. If you guys really wanted...

Can't I rest in peace in the cemetery without my name coming up?  And yes, SoCal --- I do agree that Cal Court is trolling this thread, but I actually believe he is trolling yaliu. If you refer back to one of Cal Courts earliest posts here, he clearly states he is for the cemetery: Given that...

Thank you JMoney74, you have managed to sum up in one sentence exactly what everyone suspected was REALLY thought about that Veteran Memorial, but was danced around for so long by your colleagues with "we support it, just not around us".  Can't be any more clear of your real feelings than with a...

I don't think anyone is saying you don't have a right to free speech. But for illustrative purposes, let's use a real world example to show why IHO finds it is so ironic you are invoking the Constitution to mock those who either did or were willing to give their life for this country with a...

You are a wonderful representative for Irvine.  When the news crews come calling to interview the people against the Veteran Memorial (and they will --- they love these stories about people who are perceived to be against the Veterans; ask Michael Moore how his week was) I suggest you go forward...

Point 1: I could actually care less about your Irvine or its property values or who lives there.  I had not visited this site for like three years until someone called me out in another thread --- I was notified of that by a third party and decided to stop by and pay my respects. Remember, I...

I remember one time tenmagnet told me he saw my family and I at the Jamboree Ralphs.  And then said I should stop wearing the v-neck RL Polo sweater because it went out of style in like 1995. And guess what I was wearing that day. Smart guy --- he had never met or saw a picture of me before, but...

Thank you.  You said what I was thinking much better than I did with the sarcasm and balloon. ;)

I can only imagine; the city leaders must be mortified at the perception of this outside of the bubble. I can only hope that our trolling of this thread over the past couple of days has effectively killed it, and restored some order to Talk Irvine.  Now everybody can get back to questions like...

Sounds like a plan JC.  I'll stay away from your house, but will terrorize any other open houses that same weekend to drive business your way.  Perhaps I'll enlist the help of some T-ara zombies to ensure the job is done correctly. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CJ0djllyqwY
