    Javier's

    Newport location closed for remodeling. They laid off 239 workers. I've read some recent yelp reviews about it being loud, cramped and chaotic in Irvine. I bet it's worse right now with Newport being temporarily closed because those diners are probably going to the Irvine location instead. I...

    Javier's

    What's better seating -- patio or inside? I need to book a table at Javier's- Irvine Spectrum. I've actually never been there. They have also remodeled. Which area is either the least noisy or the least crowded?

    Watch your step at The Spectrum

    Watch your step at Irvine Spectrum. 💩 🐕 Just got back from there tonight. I was greeted by a dog turd right in front of Kay Jewelers that I nearly stepped in while walking inside. Dogs everywhere. A lady was blocking the entrance with her super long leash which is a tripping hazard after dark in...

    Tustin Air Base Hangar on fire

    Are you on Reddit too?? I literally just read this exact reply to someone else, word-for-word over there. I won't link to it, in order to maintain your privacy. Or maybe someone else wrote it and this is just a copy & paste. The circumstances surrounding all of it is just too bizarre. It isn't...

    Tustin Air Base Hangar on fire

    I had this book sitting on my shelf. I took these photos to share what it said about the hangars and their future plans for them when the book was published in 2011. Interesting. Convey all the land and demo the South Hangar.

    Tustin Air Base Hangar on fire

    I don't buy their excuse that it's too dangerous to go put out the fire. So, they're just going to pick their nose and watch it burn. Why didn't they air-drop some water??

    Tustin Air Base Hangar on fire

    How ironic that a school district can't spell hangar and doesn't know the difference from a hanger which you hang your clothes on. Don't they need to go to school to run a school?

    I sense lawsuits in the air.

    Tustin Air Base Hangar on fire

    “Oh no! What a fortunate coincidence that this large wooden structure that was deemed too costly/difficult to deconstruct has caught fire while completely vacant and now is getting an unplanned demolition with taxpayer money instead. However could this have happened... Guess we’ll have to build...

    If you were to move out of Irvine (and California), where would you buy a home today?

    Windsong Ranch in Prosper, Texas. Check out the massive 5 acre man-made lagoon. Wow.

    Aqua Fit / other

    Anyone have an adult pool exercise class they like? I'm looking anywhere from mid-Irvine to south O.C. I already belong to one near my home. The exercises are OK but plenty of other things about it are not ok like water quality, cutting classes, etc., which make me want to find a replacement...

    Charts show University of California admissions rates for every public high school in state

    I5 years ago on IHB / TI, these conversations about college seemed so far off. Hard to believe here we are and now I have a kid halfway through college, with another on the way soon. Kind of going on a tangent here, but one thing I'm glad we decided to do was go straight into a 4 year school...

    Charts show University of California admissions rates for every public high school in state

    My husband helps out with hiring. He got tired of applicants coming in who had no serious, genuine interest. He doesn't care where the degree is from ... ivy league, UC or Cal State, irrelevant. He focuses mainly on personal projects. (He's a senior software engineer so usually interviewing...

    Easter at The Great Park

    In my experience, people tend to be pleasantly surprised when they discover that there is actually an Easter service held at The Great Park. It will be at the ⚾️ baseball stadium. See Lot 5. Who would have thought? So here's an option for those who are looking for something nearby this coming...
