    Gaja Moc in Lomita -- okonomiyaki run

    It's been a while since I've been to Gaja in Lomita. This is the place where you go with friends to order Japanese okonomiyaki and grill it yourself on the hot plate. If you have no clue how to cook it yourself, you'd probably screw it up, but that's just part of the fun. This was my...

    Govt. to REQUIRE adults to carry Health care insurance

    The cost of bringing new drugs to US market ranges from $250 million to $800+ million dollars (less subsidies), with no guarantee that it'd pass the final FDA approval. But once the approval is given, the drug companies aim to make billions of dollars in return. Essentially it's a gamble, and...

    Car dashboard repair

    Hello, I go to the one by Yorba Regional Park on La Palma. If you're driving east on La Palma, it's the car wash situated just before the park, not the "Riverbend" one after it. They use real steam cleaner and not chemical wash for the interior, but you have to ask for it.

    Car dashboard repair

    1998 Toyoda Camry. I tend to keep my cars for long time and in very good/clean condition. I tried some "plastic scratch repair" liquid thing from the auto supply shop and think it made it worse. I tried it in a small area and it discolored it. I've also been told that the dash might...

    Are there any good Jewish Deli's in OC

    I'm not sure if Katella Deli is still kosher certified, you might want to verify first. There's a small Jewish market in Old Town Tustin. It's in the same parking lot as the Japanese Bakery. Go here: <a...

    Interracial Couples

    From historical point of view, it's a pattern that women tend to marry up the socio-economic ladder, or to the dominate culture/ethnic group. Marrying down the socio-economic ladder is considered dysgenic. Where skin color and ethnicity is not a factor, discrimination in heightism and other...

    Commentary on switching to the Apple Mac

    Earlier this year, I wanted to play with the Apple iPhone SDK. Since it only runs on Macs, I went and bought a White MacBook. Why the MacBook? Because it was the 2nd lowest-priced Apple Mac product, after the Mac Mini, and offered portability. The Mac Mini starts at $600 but is not a laptop...

    Obama leaves door open to health benefits tax

    I'd add that some countries in the above chart have subsidized health insurance, but is not seen as "universal health care". For example, in Philippines they have Phil-Health, starting at 100 php ($2 USD) per month for coverage: http://www.philhealth.gov.ph/members/employed/contri_tbl.htm...

    Have you tried Wholesome Choice?

    Go there around 11am-11:30am when the food is being cooked fresh. If you go there at noon or later, the food has been sitting on the hot table for a while and might not taste as good. The gyro is a really good deal and BIG too.
