So I was just woken up by the most insane lightning! The fact that there was no rain whatsoever for the first five minutes of lightning that shook the entire house really freaked me out at first. Yay unstable air. Here in <a...

::bump:: So I'm now finding myself in this situation (see my thread about the saga of my landlord not paying prop taxes <a href="http://www.irvinehousingblog.com/forums/viewthread/3932/">here</a>). Luckily I found out the NOD within 2 weeks of it being filed, thanks to IR2...

I flew last week for business. The flight was about 3/4 full. And of course, the guy who sits in the aisle seat next to me puts on his mask just as we are about to take off. Only guy on the entire flight. I thought it was somewhat amusing. Then again, my Mom dropped off a mask for me a...

Well as an update... he didn't pay his taxes this month, either. Lo and behold, I can now see 2 things with his name on the grantor/grantee search - "ASGT TRUST DEED GRANTOR & GRANTEE " and "NOTICE DEFAULT GRANTOR ".... Looks like I need to begin to make some calls. Crap.

Ahhhh, the level of awesomeness by this community is amazing. Thanks for all the tips and the suggestions! Damn, I almost can't wait for the weekend now to start grillin'! Now I see that Ralphs has tri-tip on sale this week. Good karma!

I'm having a bday shindig this weekend, and instead of doing hot dogs and burgers, I'm going to go a lil more fancy. So I've decided to make, amongst other things, tri tip (or tri-tip), or however you spell it. Found a couple of rub recipes online along with ideas about how to cook. (Note...

BondTrader, thanks for the posts. I like to think I'm up to date on the latest news and economic information, but you have definitely shown me a lot of information I wasn't aware of. Are there any websites or news feeds you can recommend that have similar information?

Troop, Pickpockets are everywhere in most major European cities. I studied abroad in Europe and heard several different stories of people (including buddies of mine), getting pickpocketed (is that even a word?). Get one of those travel wallets, I used one and it worked out great. If...
