    New house + solar panel

    There are different plans for houses with solar. I pay $1 to $4 every month to SCE to be connected to the network. However every month I see my bill accumulate $20 to $25 dollars worth of electricity that I don't need to pay yet. I'm assuming I will at the end of the year. I purchased my...

    Black Friday 2015

    Yeah I gotta yard ... And in Irvine too  ;D It's big enough for my kids to do u turns in a powerwheel in and roast marshmallows too. I found Amazon's Black Friday deals pretty sad. I lost a chance at Inside Out when it was $9.99.  I bought a Bluetooth stereo set for a friend. Savings...

    Black Friday 2015

    Thanks Inc, but I don't go any lower than 3400 lumens.  The Epson ones are a bit old school.  I've used them before and they don't last more than a couple years.  Don't know why.  No matter how new the light bulb is there just isn't the power in them to be crisp and clear anymore.  Or maybe...

    Black Friday 2015

    I'm looking for an awesome projector. No more big TVs for me. I want to play big screen movies in my yard while roasting marshmallows. Any suggestions or recommendations on a nice projector?

    9-year-old dies after being struck by van in Cypress Village

    I've seen those in other cities. I don't think they are very effective. People just keep on driving to see if it can calculate their speed correctly. But that's just my opinion. The flashing light strips on the ground to remind drivers that someone is about to cross, now those get my attention...

    9-year-old dies after being struck by van in Cypress Village

    You're correct. Speed wasn't an issue here. The speed limit was 45 mph and the driver didn't violate that. But with that said, anyone making a right turn could not possibly be violating the speed limit if it's at 45 mph ... Not unless you're in the fast and the furious movies. However it...

    9-year-old dies after being struck by van in Cypress Village

    Anyone that is interested in visiting the vigil site, it is still there. I see people every day at that intersection adding to it. The boy does have a little brother.  I'm hoping all the gifts left there will be given to the family when they are ready to receive them.

    9-year-old dies after being struck by van in Cypress Village

    On the night of the vigil the family allowed a neighbor to paint their son's bike white, like a ghost bike. They had the bike up for display throughout the vigil. I was a bit surprised they did this. As I thought the police would have wanted it for evidence?? I was at the city hall meeting...

    9-year-old dies after being struck by van in Cypress Village

    Hi guys, Long time no chat. Hope everyone will have a safe and happy Thanksgiving. I saw some questions in previous posts and thought I can help clarify: The boy was wearing his helmet when this happened.  He wasn't the only one crossing at the time ... And it wouldn't have made much...

    9-year-old dies after being struck by van in Cypress Village

    No this was an intersection that actually had traffic lights. The one I mentioned last year was the stop sign. But tonight the cops pulled over a guy running the same stop sign. So the police are in full force enforcing traffic laws since this accident.

    Marigold at Cypress Village

    Agreed.  I used to live in Woodbridge, an old community, and we had the same problems PLUS a huge ant problem.  One time we had a bee and wasp problem too.  But the condo association took care of the rat and bigger issues.  The only new experience for me in Marigold is the rat problem because...

    Pedestrian hit at beckman

    Hence bad feng shui.  Schools should not be surrounded by major streets.  Anyhow being hit by cars isn't the only deaths suffered by Beckman.  Students have also died while playing sports.  Anyhow, the feng shui was meant to be sarcastic.  I don't believe in that feng shui stuff anyway.  I...

    Pedestrian hit at beckman

    Absolutely terrible accident for all involved. So many deaths at or around Beckman since it opened.  It's a very nice campus with good students and good teachers.  But it is plagued by accidents.  :'( Bad fend shui.  They need a fend shui consultant there.

    Christmas Cards

    I used to go to Target for family portrait and buy their card products but after landscaping, I am broke.  So I took family pictures in front of the tree with my studio muslin backdrops + Nikon camera + ice cream and got the kids in a few good poses.  After some photoshopping, I got some nice...

    Marigold at Cypress Village

    Ok, I got some news.  Professional pest control will offer a box plus bait.  It all cost extra money ... Setup fee + monthly fee. I didn't think much of it so decided to let the association handle the outdoor rat problem.  Association should have some baits in common areas to take of this...

    Marigold - Plan 2 or Plan3 ???

    I was in the same boat as you.  Debating between a plan 2 and plan 3.  We spent forever debating between the two.  But when we sat down and asked for plan 2, it was already sold.  So we took the plan 3.  Absolutely love being on the inside of a 4 house motor court.  We know who is pulling up to...

    woman begging in restaurant

    That's most likely the same woman I've been calling the cops on.  She generally hangs out in the center divider.  The cops should know her pretty well.  The only time I feel I need to call the cops if she has small children with her.  I draw the line on exploiting toddlers & infants for...
