Eva, Yup I received it today as well. I like this phrase on their website: "As the Great Park Neighborhoods are developed, they will provide the tax revenues to finance and build the great park ? at no cost to current taxpayers." I read that as, no new taxes for current...

I LOOVE frozen yogurt, definitely will try and get a free loop! There's definitely no shortage of yogurt shop these days. Why another "fruit" name for a yogurt shop? There's Pinkberry, Kiwiberry, and Red Mango.

IMO, builders need to build for 2000 technology by adding more cat 5, dual RG6 coax by every TV for Tivo's and DVR's, but the more "high tech" along the lines of lighting, security, AV distribution and entertainment will be a nightmare for the traditional builder. Unless they contract out with...

Anon. It's been doing well even though we neglect it. Other than sun and water and the occasional fertilizer that our gardener puts down maybe once a year, we haven't done anything special. However, it does get a lot of sun during the morning and early afternoon. Our landscaper planted them...

We also have a meyer lemon tree, it's more like a meyer lemon bush. It's pretty tiny about 3-4 feet tall max, but produces over 12-18 gigantic lemons. Not sure how it supports it all but we've made several batches of lemonade. Very sweet and tangy, but not as sour as regular lemon.

Looks like they closed down on the April 15th as they lost their lease. Not sure if they will relocate elsewhere.

They were clearing out a lot items three weeks ago at 50%+ off. I know a neighbor of mine bought a bunch of mulch, dirt, plants, etc as they were replanting their front landscape. I knew they were closing but didn't know exactly when. It might have happened on April 30th...

8 years in the past wouldn't be sufficient. $200K could buy you a condo like that maybe in 1998 or earlier. You may still be able to find something, but not in the newest villages of QH, WB, TR, try an older village from the 90's.

Is this a Tustin or IUSD elementary school? If it's behind the OH Shopping center, I'm guessing it's Tustin?

What is disturbing is I see, actually overhear young twenty-somethings already maxing out their credit cards. One girl talking on her cell phone at Starbucks telling her BFF or whoever about being maxed to the limit on her six credit cards and she needed to borrow money from her boyfriend for...

IMO, these tax credits and stimulus checks shouldn't be offered to people making more than 160K. I didn't get a stimulus check and would rather have had that money directed towards the elderly and those on social security. However, I'd rather have them get rid of, or adjust the damn AMT tax...

I have no clue about boating, but is this a type of product that would work well at Havasu as a rental?

Hmm... if you take out the "www." part here's what shows up: How Much Is Your Blog Worth? Your blog, irvinehousingblog.com, is worth $133,231.44 Seems like talking about real estate just depresses people these days, they'd rather talk about politics and primaries.

I guess it sort of you get what your pay for, in this case, what the seller pays for. Seriously, since you're not paying commissions directly, I'd rather work with someone who'd wants to work for the commissions, find the most thorough home inspector, bargain with the other realtor and take...

Looks like the fed did apply a rather large COLA adjustment to social security benefits between 1979-1982. Wonder how wages compared... <a href="http://www.ssa.gov/OACT/COLA/colaseries.html">Fed COLA adjustments</a>

Historically, what has happened to wages when inflation hit 10% or 15%? DId wages increases accordingly? I'm curious if companies would actually give large COLA adjustments to wages?

The federal government has to be freaking out about all the "potential" bailouts over the next few years, from bond insurers, to CFC, to Freddie and Fannie, to homeowners, to ???.. seems like there's no end in sight.
