We have a new Argentine place in LN called Tierra del Fuego - in the same shopping center as Mameya Coffee (from Kobe JP) and trendy Japanese bakery Okayama Kobo and Avila’s El Ranchito.

My parents live in old Racquet Club which was originally zoned for IHS but now after the Northwood development districts into Northwood. Good for values in that old non-HOA neighborhood

My friend on Balboa Island has a similar cart. Both of you guys need to be wary of rising sea levels! Another friend lives in Bighorn out in the desert and everyone there was super tricked out carts that go really fast - lots of accidents behind those gates.

I got an AC quote for my MIL’s house from an Argentine guy. I don’t think he’s in the Irvine market.

They also hunted down a gal in HB that stole $1000 of Ulta merch. IPD is out to show they’re not nearly as incompetent as Newport Beach PD.

In Malaysia (at least where I stayed in Penang) you’re woken early by the call to prayer - don’t forget it is a Muslim country. Best food in Asia though outside Japan.

I’m no soccer dude but Belgium looked way more athletic and skilled - the play they ran for the first 2 goals was mental - getting the left footed kick from the corner to travel straight parallel to the goal and make it a layup for the tall guy who headed them in was as beautiful as a long TD...

No closet = against CA regulations to call it a bedroom

DACA planted unvetted time bombs across the country - self administered sleeper cells

But Whitney is well known with college admissions officials in the same manner as Uni - is CHS or Gahr? Also can’t compare HW and VC (if you’re referring to San Jose VC) - HW is super elite , VC not so much, more like a Mater Dei. Top dog for private in the South Bay area is The Harker School...

When COVID hit my $150/mo $0 down eGolf yielded $5K equity when EVs caught fire - rolled it into my first Model 3

I read about that in the WSJ - interesting product
