    What would make you vote with your feet?

    I'd leave in a heartbeat if my son's father died and I was no longer shackled to the six southern CA counties by order of the court. I would go somewhere that actually had attractive single men around, a nice change of seasons, a good cultural life, and nice houses in nice neighborhoods that...

    500 Things to Say

    24 - yup, I'm still holding out for OH. Feels kinda silly to do so sometimes, since it's been pushed out so far in the future that it seems more like Fantasyland! If other areas get built first (can anyone say "OC Great Park"? I might be tempted to defect as well. If they really do create a...

    500 Things to Say

    To my friends in the IHB Community: Well, to blatantly steal an idea from our beloved Trooper, I would like to briefly take a time out (after 499 previous posts) to reflect since zovall and I started IHB way back a thousand years ago. Well, okay, since zovall posted a question on...

    Arg! Heart rate monitor advice

    Cayci - yes, I have one at home (purchased as "remanufactured for 75% off retail) and that's where I surf the web. My laptop fits nicely on the top portion of the railing and as long as I'm careful, I don't get too much sweat on it. (I have wireless internet at home of course). At the gym...

    Need your best snapping-out-of-it-in-Irvine advice

    4walls - hang out with me! I rarely get to hang out with girlfriends because everyone either lives too far away or is married with kids and extended family that they're forever needing to attend to and all that crap. I have been single and dateless for more than three years and can tell you...

    Arg! Heart rate monitor advice

    Major - jogging is great but only works if your body will allow it. After I ran the San Diego marathon my orthopedic surgeon stepmother threatened me with foot shackles if I ever laced up again. I have a problem with my hip/knee/ankle alignment that will, in the end, result in a broken knee if...

    Before / After School Programs in Irvine

    I'm on the Stepmill and don't want to sweat all over my laptop so I'll keep this brief. My son is at Plaza Vista CDC where he attends kindergarten. I have two strongly enthusiastic thumbs up for PV CDC. No reservations - they are very good as far as I'm concerned.

    Pastor Rick Warren defends invite to inauguration

    Well, I for one was shocked and completely won over when President Obama included ME in his speech! (..."Christians, Jews, Muslims, Hindus and nonbelievers...") Has any President ever acknowledged nonbelievers like that before? Woohoo! Way to go Obama! You ARE my President too! Yay! It's...

    Bank of America...

    Serves BoA right. I hope they fold. I just cashed out a Countrywide CD last week. First of all, they wanted to charge me like $25 to do a wire transfer. So I told them to send me a check. So I finally receive the paper check, bring it to my local BoA, and deposit it. So I go to look for my...

    What do you use your garage for?

    All of y'all have wayyy too many cars. I think anything more than a 2-car garage just epitomizes the McMansion, "more-cars-the-better" spoiled rotten consumerism mentality in America these days. Two cars per married family, tops. Teenage children simply do not need their own vehicles. I...

    Movies and Movie Theaters

    I thought Benjamin Button was well-done, but too weird. And I really don't like Brad Pitt (and yes, I'm straight; he's just too pouty for me) but thought he was quite good here.
