    Very sad.  So was he arrested upon arrival?  I assume he won't get extradited?

    retirement savings in OC

    How common is it to have a brokerage account component to a 401K?  Ours allows up to 25% of the total 401K amount into a brokerage account like Fidelity, etc. (company decides which one but has changed a few times over the years but no biggie).  From that account, you can pretty much buy any...

    retirement savings in OC

    The bulb is slow to turn on up there.  :-) Is this a TI joke that some people (living in certain areas) pay too much Mello Roos and don't have enough to max out their retirement accounts?  Or, is this a tax thing?

    retirement savings in OC

    I understand about someone just starting out but with all the high income earners here, why wouldn't you contribute the maximum every year?  And also to a IRA? Is there such a thing as being 401K poor due to contributing too much?  :-)

    Teeth Cleaning / Dentist

    +1 for Dr. Sean Yu.  Like someone mentioned, the doctor rarely cleans your teeth and just shows up at the end to check the work and explains the test results.  He did clean my teeth once when it was really busy. But he is pleasant and doesn't shame me like some other dentists if I didn't floss...

    DUI causes chain-reaction crash on I-5 transition in Irvine

    In this case, who will likely be charged with the death of the driver?  The DUI driver or the driver of the 240SX who over-corrected?  What if the suspected DUI driver was cleared of DUI?

    Tragic shooting in San Bernardino

    Talking about bombs, this can't be good.  Who's in charge of the bomb warehouse?  I hope Russia isn't planning to attack us anytime soon. http://www.cnn.com/2015/12/04/politics/air-force-20000-bombs-missiles-isis/index.html The U.S. is running out of bombs to drop on ISIS Washington (CNN)The...

    Tragic shooting in San Bernardino

    "Co-worker Patrick Baccari told the Los Angeles Times that Farook recently visited Saudi Arabia to meet a woman he met online. They returned as husband and wife." >>> Well, that could possibly explain the wife and how he got influenced.  "A bag believed to belong to the shooters was found...

    Tragic shooting in San Bernardino

    It's weird that the guy was attending the party but left after some type of quarrel.  Who knows, maybe someone commented about the war with ISIS or something related to their religion and it offended him?  Or, maybe they were having a heated discussion about dashcams and traffic incidents?  :P...

    Clockboy sues Irving 15M

    I don't think his parents plan on doing that but if that was my son, instead of suing I would surely have beaten his arse.  :P For/After doing this, he got a full ride to a prestigious university in Qatar?  Hmm. They really think MIT would have let him in after this?

    My girls went there today as a school field trip.  We went a couple of years ago but I'm not sure if we'll do it again this year.

    Orchard Hills - Capella by Taylor Morrison

    Our area is not new but our street does not have a no. 4 or 13. My previous home in Tustin Ranch had a 4 in it but also an 8. A FCB (Chinese) bought it for his daughter who was attending med school.  But maybe the housing bubble had something to do with it? Knowing the crap I know now, I...

    Trouble in Troy (SC)

    I'm really sad to see our former head coach end up in this situation.  He has a major drinking problem which he also had while up there.  I would think the additional, unrealistic expectations and pressures of his present job, divorce just was too much for someone with that addiction.  Hope he...

    Does anyone else get the OC Register delivered?

    I wrote earlier that I emailed them several times to cancel.  The final time, I finally found out my customer number so I added that and then wrote to them that I cancelled and if they send me any further issues that it was their treat.  Then, I got a response back for the first time saying my...

    Assessment Scores Rank IUSD Highest in County

    My nieces and nephew were going to elementary school in the Poway school district some years back.  I still remember being surprised at the advanced work they were doing for their grades.  They were stressing about the possibility of being put in some new advanced middle school back then. They...

    Ants Anyone?

    I have lower middle and upper elementary.  They were all elementary when I started using it.  My kids know better than to mess with things when I tell them not to.  :P Anyway, I'm not sure how else you would use this bait?  I just put it on top of a paper towel to avoid the spill.  Otherwise...

    Ants Anyone?

    I put the bait on top of a paper towel so that the goo doesn't stick on my floors, in case it spills.
