    Landscape Nursery

    Olive Trees shed way too much and create such a mess.  I'd stay away from them even though they look nice. I was talking with Aloha Landscaping and they said they use RV Nurseries in Buena Park.  I know I saw a few nurseries on Santiago Canyon when I was driving around trying to get my...

    lost inbound mails at my new address in stonegate

    http://www.google.com/mapmaker you can edit Google Maps and make corrections.  They'll review it and tell you they either will accept it or not. Took me a couple months to get them to add streets in Stonegate, but after my first few entries, they started accepting my edits quicker now.

    IAC Now Requiring Proof of Renter's Insurance

    they have required it for a long time, but when I was renting they would just leave notes on my door to turn it in and never bother me about it.  Guess they are getting more strict on the policy

    Recommendation on Tile job in house

    I called Keith...he gave me a quote based on the model home over the phone.  It was so informal and casual and it didn't give me the warm and fuzzies when I talked to him.  IF you go with him let me know how it goes.

    Police Shooting today at new Doria apartment complex

    makes you realize how stupid it is to pay 3/4 of a mil and up to live with an apartment dedicated to affordable housing. Although I think most of the tenants are Asians who get paid under the table and don't report income.  The parking lot is filled with Lexus, Mercedes, and BMW.

    LAN Upgrade Option for TIC Home

    Not worth 1000.  CAT 5 rated at 100Mbps which is still faster than any of your internet connections.  Only reason you'd need a gig connection at home is to transfer files and such.  A router, or device used to share your single internet connection you can purchase for $100 for a pretty damn...

    LAN Upgrade Option for TIC Home

    No one fully explained what the upgrade really is, so I'm curious what the $1190 gets you. For reference,  TIC in my house gave every room 2 RJ-45 jacks.  One for data and one for the phone with the exception of the master bedroom and greatroom where I have extra ports.  Every cable in the...

    LAN Upgrade Option for TIC Home

    Wait you don't get the electrical outlet in the closet standard anymore either?  WTF is IP doing now?  Nickel and diming you over this stuff?  I got two outlets...one in the closet and one inside the wiring cabinet in the closet.  If this isn't standard anymore what else are they going to charge...

    LAN Upgrade Option for TIC Home

    CAT6 highly unnecessary for your house.  Unless you've got a requirement to run 10 gigabits in your home it's pretty pointless.  The sound of having it is great, it's like the car salesman telling a woman her car has 300HP...when all she really cares about is having a BMW like her neighbor...
