    Alternative Medicine Pediatrician?

    I would never, I love having all of these opinions documented. Plus it would make too many people on this thread happy.

    Alternative Medicine Pediatrician?

    Every year there is media coverage of outbreaks. From every doctor I've seen and spoken to they have admitted pertussis is spread by vaccinated children. For the millionth time, if you are vaccinating your child and you believe that protects them from these illnesses, why are you worried about...

    Eames Chair

    I have an original from the 1960's. The leather is cracked and it's worn, but it's easily the most comfortable chair I've ever owned. I highly recommend it. It will become an heirloom that's passed down for decades just like mine.  :)

    Quail Hill Recall

    My husband and I are Quail Hill residents trying to figure out what the real issues are regarding this recall. We called and emailed each person on the Board and the only person that did NOT get back to us was Doug Swardstrom. That's very unnerving to us. We left messages on his cell phone and...

    Carpet Repair recommendation

    Sorry I'm not sure the pricing because our realtor covered the costs. We didn't notice the rippling until the seller moved their furniture out. I would guess he's very reasonable.

    Quail Hill Recall

    Yes. Apparently the guy who lost the last election is trying to get the entire board recalled for double-dealing, etc.

    Quail Hill Recall

    There are signs up all over the neighborhood and they are putting flyers on our doors. I'm wondering if anyone has the inside scoop? It seems very personal.

    Creamistry?

    I'm still attached to Strickland's near UCI. They make it the old fashioned Midwestern way. My husband's from Hawaii so he loves the daily flavors which sometimes include lychee, taro, mango, etc. http://www.stricklands.info/site.cfm/flavor-of-the-day.cfm

    Best strategy to buy an over-priced house

    It's all about how badly you want it. We put in lowball offers (15% below both times) on two homes. One seller was so insulted he wouldn't counter or even entertain a conversation. The other seller accepted. You just never know, but it's definitely a gamble. If you want it that badly, you'll...

    Car crashes through Barranca overpass onto 5 Freeway in Irvine, killing driver

    It's a carpool exit/entrance that exits/enters the center of the freeway and those are rare around here. That's why it's dangerous, it's different. Haven't you seen how people slam on their brakes when there is a CURVE in the freeway? Change things up and some drivers get confused = danger for...

    Guns in QH?

    I have no idea if the two are related, it was just weird. Although, with the Irvine PD I wouldn't be surprised. We once got an automated call from the chief of police warning us to close our garage because someone had been opening cars and stealing sunglasses. The humanity!!

    Guns in QH?

    My sister was just at Starbucks in the QH shopping center when a man in his 50's with salt and pepper hair got up and left. She went over to steal his seat and found this (see image). Now there are police helicopters circling overhead. Wth? Yes, she called the cops.

    Carpet Repair recommendation

    We just moved into our home in QH and there were some wavy parts of the carpeting that needed stretching. Our realtor referred us to the Carpet Dr (don't confuse him with the Rug Doctor...lesson learned!). His name is Dave and he is a third generation carpet repairman from Brooklyn. Great guy...

    Car crashes through Barranca overpass onto 5 Freeway in Irvine, killing driver

    Exactly! Every time I pass by or enter I think about how dangerous it is. Sad story.

    Alternative Medicine Pediatrician?

    I spoke with physicians, read medical journals given to me by physicians and midwives, books and spoke with other parents. I don't have articles to forward or links to share because it was too hard to differentiate online whether or not something was truly aboveboard. This was the best, most...

    Alternative Medicine Pediatrician?

    I'm afraid you misunderstood me. What I meant by gut instinct was, when meeting a Pediatrician for an initial consultation go with your gut instinct on whether or not the doctor is right or wrong for you. That's all.
