Thank you, thank you, thank you.

A Weimaraner owns me, as you might have guessed from my avatar. Great companion breed and has been good with our kids. Dogs are also a good reminder that you are never acting as an island: You may think that you have a "3-second rule" for dropped food, but it does not matter since your dog has...

What is this "watch" thing that needs repair? Do you mean on of those clock-bracelets that was invented in like, the '80s?

^^^ I'm stealing this. Agree with TD's assessment that this is likely a settling issue, but it is unlikely that you'll have the builder cover the stucco cracking as a warranty item.  The likely solution later on will be with paint. Good painters will seal the hairline cracks with filler prior...

This just in: Irvine's upcoming village, Laguna Ventana has already sold out, before even having been released.

The link that I'd listed above is directly from the www.irs.gov website and states that it was last reviewed/edited 3/12/13 at the bottom of the page. Hopefully that's sufficient? -IR2

Merry Christmas from IR2
