    Filipino Invasion into Irvine!

    More impressive is that guy (Mikey Bustos) actually was born and grew up in Canada and I think still lives in Canada up to now.  But his accent, expressions and mannerisms are right on --

    Irvine brings back commission to fight traffic congestion

    I respectfully disagree -- because the toll road will end up getting congested and now you have NO other options if you are in a hurry.  At least now, if I am in a hurry, I pay up and use the toll road .. if not, I coast along Sand Canyon -- at least I have a choice.

    Asian Last Name = Fewer Job Interviews

    It actually works both way -- a Chinese / Indian manager in a large US corporation would have preference to hire their own race (whether intentionally or not) -- that is just the way we are wired.  Look up org chart of any large organization -- For the same department, say the manager is...

    Asian Last Name = Fewer Job Interviews

    But if your name is like Tong Chen or Lin Wang -- chances are you are not second or third generation :p  If you are the HR person and you have to 5 seconds to choose only one between two comparably qualified resume from Tong Chen or Jane Smith for job that requires English fluency --- even...

    Refusing to Wear Religious Garb

    I'm trying to play devils advocate here (not that I disagree with you) --  Both topless man and woman going to a regular beach or something -- you would request the woman to wear something on the top but allow men to go without shirt  as it is our cultural norm -- this is not much different from...

    President Trump

    For some people who voted Trump, Pence being a president is not really a bad outcome -- I read from some article before on why evangelicals should vote for Trump is because of Pence referencing in the Biblical times, most of God's anointed are the second in command to somewhat bad leader (eg...

    HomeUnion

    Anybody heard on this company ?  What do you think of it ?  Got curious as it is supposedly Irvine based -- but I would assume most of their products will NOT be in Irvine :) http://www.cnbc.com/2017/01/13/becoming-a-landlord-is-just-a-click-away.html

    Presidential Elections

    I think the blame really lie on Clinton itself more than the other side.  If she just have gotten the same amount of support from their traditional minority constituents .. it would not have matter: She can't even get more votes compared to Obama from women given the Trumps reputation with...

    Presidential Elections

    Pollster are just way wrong big time !! Based on fivethirtyeight last forecast before election .. Clinton has an 83.5% chance of winning Wisconsion, 78.9% change on MI and 77% chance on PA.  That's giving Trump like less than 1% chance of winning all three states.. boom...

    PS or cypress village

    If close access to Asian food and stuff is very important to you, Cypress might be a good choice.  Everytime I have to run errand to 99 ranch or pickup food in the Cypress Village / Orangetree shopping center or the center where Dunkin is or drop-off/pickup my daughter from Karis Academy, I...

    Did you ever wonder if you are intellectually disabled and don't know it?

    My thing is as long as you are happy and treated right with your current situation .. what does it matters ? Being mentally challenge actually sometimes has its own advantage (as long as you are treated right) as you are more indifferent to problems that the mentally "superior" would treat as...

    TK/K & Daycare or Pay for Montessori til 1st Grade?

    Choose a cheaper Montessori  :P  We're paying under $1100/month for 7am-6pm Montessori (not in Irvine though as it is more convenient closer to work -- but I have asked a few others in Irvine in the similar price range).. For us, we'll probably keep her in Montessori until 1st grade. Main...
