Of course, these rankings are reliable...up to #15 anyway.  :P This is how the world ranks universities from their point of view, not Irvine's skewed ones.  :P

All of our kids have the lunch accounts but they almost never use it.  They don't want to spend the extra time waiting in line.  And neither do their particular friends.  Also, since middle schoolers go in last, I heard they often run out of the main entr?e so all they have left is fruit or...

We're year round so just about in the groove now. Actually, the tissues are for the crying parents as their kids go inside.  :P

Now that I'm listening for it, I can hear the rumblings off and on even now.  I thought it was a large truck or something but it sometimes comes one after another even when I don't hear any traffic. I'm a few miles west of PP and I can still feel it. Is that Web site saying that they'll do...

This confusing Carmel Valley, which is near San Diego, was one of the places we seriously looked at, while we were still living in WA state.  Of course, due to the schools there.  :P  And, wife has a friend that bought there early on.  Even then, we thought it was expensive compared to other...

Talking of crime, anyone else hearing what sounds like a police helicopter circling around the Irvine/Tustin border area?  :P  It was flying a little earlier and went away but came back again for a little while.

Well, the time has come and it happens to be 6th grade for my girls. And, even less for my younger one.  But only to walk home with all three of my kids together.  Fortunately, their friends and a nearby neighbors' kids walks back so I'm hoping they can all walk back together as much as...

I think you need to add "ending up like Little Red Riding Hood's Grandma" to the list.  :P

I also had trouble canceling my Sunday subscription.  After trying a few times,  they sent me an invoice saying I had a balance of about $3.  So, I gladly paid that off thinking good riddance without checking the box that says to restart the service.  It stopped for a few weeks but then it...

This is where he came from.  Like Marcus Peters of our football team, good riddance! He transferred to UW from Fresno State(?) under suspicious terms so we were asking for it.  Hope he "matures" this time for real. Huskies center Robert Upshaw dismissed from the program for violation of team...

When I was up there about three years ago, I did see someone tipping the attendant at Costco.  That's why I wanted to bypass gassing in Oregon this time but the cheap prices was too much to pass up and I would have run out of gas.  I noticed noone tipping this time so I didn't feel guilty not...

I didn't look at everyone but I didn't see anyone tipping so I didn't either.  I'm sure there are people that do but it seems most do not.

Just came back from a trip up to WA state and back.  Put in gas at Costcos in Oregon and WA.  In Oregon, most of the places, you cannot put in the gas yourself, including at Costco.  They have only about two attendants for every 8 pumps or so.  Therefore, it can take a while until they fill your...

Yes, one of our kids had a school sponsored party this week at our HOA pool.  The other two had  "field trips" to Sky High.  On another note, as I was walking by the school yesterday to pick up my kids, I heard a crowd of kids and someone that looked like a teacher counting down.  Then, I...

I guess this is why my unlimited plan is often so slow?  Any shady lawyers on this forum?  :P  Sue, sue, sue. AT&T, if you're monitoring this board, I'll settle for a house in OH (has to be larger SFH) or HC.  :P...

I remember someone posted a while back about some guy that had a sliding scale depending on the results.  Do these outfits give any sort of minimum guarantees?  Hopefully, not to IVCC.  :P

I saw this article about attorneys.  No wonder some of the solo attorneys have to have "side businesses". http://www.cnn.com/2015/05/22/opinions/barton-rise-and-fall-of-lawyers/?iid=ob_homepage_featured_pool&iref=obinsite

So, why do the mayor and city council members earn so much less than those other positions? Well, it used to be that you wouldn't get rich working for the government (it was just for the comfortable retirement plans and the "can sit on your axx all day and can't be fired" type work) but I guess...

For preschool, I can't imagine this happening but this is what happened to me a few months ago.  I was waiting in my car with my kid until the door to his after school activity was open.  A mom comes up and asks me if I'm the father of "so and so" so I said "yes".  Then, she said she was...

That was my legal disclaimer so that I don't get sued.  :P Well, a legal office near a 99 Ranch doesn't give off a "high powered attorney" kind of image, but who knows?  Maybe he does get decent business there with all that foot traffic after shopping at 99 Ranch and JJ's. :P
