    How long until California goes under?

    California has such a bloated government workforce and its inefficiency is legendary. Arnold is talking about taking away 2 of the 14 paid holidays plus some unpaid leaves and the union hacks are already screaming. How about everyone in state government takes a 10% salary cut. Wouldn't that...

    How secure is your job?

    I got laid off earlier this year after 20 years with a Fortune 50 Company. They just eliminated the whole corporate department of about 200 people. I found a job with a Fortune 100 Company soon after and feel very secured in my new position because they really need me and the division that...

    The truth: Im not sure where this belongs but Im going to start here...

    From what I have read, pedophiles have more often than not reverted back to being pedophiles even after treatment. They should not be exposed near children. These sick people should be put away for life.

    McCain/Palin

    Don't have a need to Google anything. This is not about knowing it all and who is the smartest or most well-read. It's about learning the facts and making reasonable choices. Giving up some of my liberties to allow the government to have more tools to prevent more 9-11 Events is a reasonable...

    McCain/Palin

    Green Cactus, there is honor in having a civil discussion, supporting by facts. Otherwise, we just look like a bunch of immature kids throwing jabs at each others. During a presidential campaign, both sides will shade the truth. That's just a reality of politics. I see you making all of...

    McCain/Palin

    One of McCain's sons is serving in Irag. Another one is at the Naval Academy. How is that for honor. He voted for the surge in Irag when it was an unpopular thing to do, knowing that it might have cost him votes. How is that for honor. He served honorably in the military and...

    Race to the bottom

    Still way overpriced. I looked at these homes in 2005 and they were selling them for $1.25 mil at the peak of the market. Add $100k for upgrades and it's still under the current asking price. Additionally, Mello Roos is a killer in this area.

    Gov. Palin speech -- a great political debut

    Well-said Skek. This country is in for a tough time in the next few years no matter which party wins the presidency but I feel that Obama's tax plan would only make things worse. I have always admired Senator McCain for his courage and his independence. I have never heard of Palin until...

    What Happened Here?

    Both of these are over-built homes in older neighborhoods. They stand out like a sore thumb. I am guessing that the homes around them cost between 33% to 50% less.

    Fun thread: Just how cheap are you?

    I go through a pair of shoes every six weeks playing tennis and always wait for a sale of my favorite Reebok to go from $49.99 to $29.99 at Big 5 before buying a few pairs. Not exactly cheap but when it comes to comfort and traction, it's worth spending the money.

    Orchard Hills fantasy pricing

    In my opinion, there is a real possibility that they would delay the project again if we are scrapping at the bottom.

    I need to lose 20 lbs in three months

    Panda, try to switch from coffee to green tea. Green tea has healthy ingredients and I noticed that I started loosing a little bit of weight from drinking it. If you drink coffee, try to drink it with Splenda instead of sugar. It has zero calories. I happen to love fruit and I found...

    Looks like the IPO family are going to be renters...

    I have never been to one of these Wednesday's affairs but have always wanted to. I'll be looking out for IPO's home on IR2's list to take advantage of the goodies and to meet IR2. Note to IR2: please highlight IPO's listing.

    If you're waiting to buy, where and what are you looking for?

    A newer house around 3,000 sq feet in Irvine (92602, 92620), Tustin (92782) or Tustin Hills (92705) with low Mello Roos and HOA. I like the homes in Tustin Hills with view, trees, low taxes and no HOA but they are not as accessible as the other areas mentioned. They also tend to be much older...
