    Ducks vs. Red Wings: Thank You Referee!

    Not too shabby for the #8 seed in the Western Conference! If we can go up 3-1 on Thursday, that would be HUGE! Sunshine, PM me if you're looking to go to a future Ducks game.

    Dealtracker

    Does anyone else here ready the OC Register Real Estate blogs? I've kept an eye on them for some time, but MAN ALIVE has it gotten immature over there. Does anybody have a clue who "Dealtracker" is or where in hell he comes up with half the stuff he says? However, I must say that half of...

    Ladera Ranch

    Personally, the rediclously high HOA's are why I haven't purchased in Ladera. Yeah, it's cookie cutter and not that convenient traffic wise, but it's still no Santa Ana. There were a couple places in Covenant Hills that were close to $1,000 a month for HOA's. Work that into your...

    Fatburger files for BK

    The one in AV is dead unless it's a weekend night. They also do 'buy 1 get 1 free' coupons, so they give you no reason to ever pay full price. I must say though, they make a mean burger and some great chili fries.

    Aliso Viejo Discussion Thread

    Lived in Canyon Villas for a year and I can confirm everything AVRenter just said. The tree sap will F up your paint and guest parking is HORRIBLE. Obviously, every place has it's ups and downs. However, Canyon Villas has been struggling since the beginning of the conversion. They started...

    I've been waiting for prices to drop and now they are going back up.

    Here's my rant regarding the current unemployment trend and housing. Anybody agree? Am I completely off base? In order for the housing market to recover in So Cal, we need to soak up a vast amount of excess inventory. However, current home buyers purchasing homes does nothing to reduce our...

    price per sq footage

    That's exactly what bugs me about the current pricing. On a national level, we've rolled back to 2001 pricing or even further. However, in the higher-end OC, prices still don't seem like they are regressing to the same extent. This condo is still "comped" at a 65% premium over 2002 pricing...

    Tri Tip, Tri-Tip, help

    Rub or sauce is up to you. Plenty of good recipes out on the internet. BARBEQUE IS THE ONLY WAY TO COOK TRIP-TIP. If you use a sauce, watch out for flame-ups from the sugary sauces because you could char the crap out of it. Finally, listen to bltserv and let it rest. All the juices will...

    Opah in Aliso Viejo

    I hear ya AVRenter. If you're that high-roller, go to Laguna or some of the more ritzy locals. Also, I love seeing the Cougars on the prowl when I drive by around 9:00pm on a Thursday. hi-freakin-larious. The food at Opah has always been consistent, but never blown me away. The prices are...

    Marche Moderne

    Wifey and I finally went last night. It was great. We started with the scallops, which were very interesting. They were cooked perfectly and came with an almost Morraccan spice to them. My only jab would be that I like to be able to taste the scallop and I think the sauce dominated a little too...

    Restaurants in San Juan Capistrano

    I've been to Tannin's a couple of times now. I have never been very impressed. The club upstairs makes for a VERY akward atmosphere and the thumping feeling through the roof if it is a Friday or Saturday night. For the money, there are countless other places that I would suggest before Tannin's...
