    Where do you buy your Christmas Tree?

    Where do you buy your Christmas Tree?

    Costco does still sell real tress.  They'll be my first stop. I think the last real tree I bought was also at Ikea, when they were in TMP.  (Ahh memories.) I wonder if the Ikea in CM sells those really cheap trees.  (If so, do you have to put them together using incomprehensible instructions?)

    Garage Floor- DIY?

    Thinking about epoxying the garage floor. Hire a pro= $1,600. DIY with a kit from HD= $150. I'm sure the pro uses a superior product, but is 10X justified? If anyone has used the DIY approach, I'd appreciate any feedback on your results.

The appeals judge "noted that the EPA's estimated miles-per-gallon ratings are for comparison among vehicles and don't take into account variations, such...

    Shea: changing from in house lender to outside lender

    I could be wrong, but I think most lenders can fund in 21 to 30 days.  But, builders often charge $500 - $1,000/day fee if you cause a delay to the close of escrow. Ask your outside lender to guarantee that they can close on time. Otherwise, it might not be worth the risk.  You can always just...

    talkIrvine Realestate board slowing down????

    I think there were two posters, who went by various names at different times,  who realized that this was a public, not private, forum. Apparently they were concerned that they could be stalked to a particular "village" and that someone would care enough to do so. So, it seems their total...
