Passed by tonight and it's now open. Yelp reviews are good so far.

I would have told that lady at Nordstrom that she herself is Asian just to get under her skin! In high school, the Persians I knew would classify themselves as white and I would tell them that technically they're Asian, since Iran is part of Asia. That annoyed them so much when I said that.

If you ever visit China or Korea, you'll then understand why the FOB's here drive so recklessly. They bring that driving mentality here and pass it on to their offspring.

Yup, that 700 acre Pendleton fire is causing all the smoke in the area.

You can never go wrong with pancit and lumpia. Don't order dinuguan because it's a stew made with pig's blood.

Yup! Lower performing schools have a different criteria for admission versus higher performing schools. The real test is can these students from lower performing schools actually keep up with the rigorous curriculum at a top college. From what teachers have told my kids, these students...

Seems like Dunn always prices his listings WTF. So according to him, does that mean OH residents devalue their property because they're not long term thinkers?  ;) Noticed they also had a retro Ford Bronco in the garage. Some of the vintage Broncos are actually worth some bucks...

When I was looking at the OC Supervisors agenda for 5/23/17 there was a link to a $600,000 signed contract dated in April 2017 for temporary short term housing. The contract was between the County of Orange and a vendor that had the name "Irvine" in it, yet the vendor's address was located in...

Last month I took my son to Family Optometry to see Dr. Kim-Ong for the very first time. She is very thorough and detailed in her examination. My son had a question about his eyesight and she gave a mini eye anatomy lesson. She also explained to him how to keep his eyes healthy to avoid some of...

In photo #10 they used a cheap folding card table/chairs. I would let that go on an entry priced home, but on a million dollar listing, no, no, no!!

Here's a replay of the meeting: http://ocgov.granicus.com/MediaPlayer.php?view_id=6&clip_id=2735

Anybody going to the Open House this Thursday? I would like to go, but I have a school event to attend.

Yes, I received: ?Tiffany & Co candy dish ?Amex gift card ?Coffee table book "Southern California Coastal Mountains to the Sea" ?A burlap shopping tote that contained all the gifts inside When I picked up my keys, I gave "thank you" gifts to the sales reps and design consultant. I was more...

This is a lengthy article, but quite interesting. I wrongly  assumed you had to be licensed to run a sober living center. Never knew Costa Mesa had 102 of these facilities. If there's this much fraud now, just wait until California approves single-payer healthcare...

These two thieves got caught: http://www.ocregister.com/2017/05/19/police-arrest-2-in-connection-with-thefts-from-westminster-gym/

I know this isn't in Irvine, but close enough. Passed by the Tustin library (which is temporarily closed due to water damage) and there were a couple of tents in the courtyard area. Contacted Tustin police and they confirmed it's where the homeless have chosen to set up. Tustin PD doesn't appear...
