Coltrane at his worst, conveyed more passion and soulfull prowess than any of these "smooth jazz" musicians around today. Sure, the technical mastery of their instrument is on the money. But all the chops in the world don't amount to a thing if you ain't got that..........,y'know.— July 25, 2013 8:34 a.m.
Former Development Services Director ordered staff to delete comments to get large church project approved
Thats a HELL of a foundation for a church to be built on. Look up people!— July 23, 2013 9:56 a.m.
Trayvon Martin demonstration comes between Westboro Baptist Church protesters and the Comic-Con crowd

Questions about McCormack Jackson suit
Damn, Damn, Damn! Took me a while to get on board with Mayor Filner. For a moment there it looked like San Diego had a mayor with our interests in mind. The arguments I had against his mayoral run which eventually sold me on him. And now this?! Gloria Alred for chrissakes. That overglorified, press hungry, ambulance chaser doesn't touch anything she can't win. Ever! No matter what we come up with Don, its over. Exactly what we were sure was not going to happen, has happened. A victim, a lawsuit, and who knows what the heck is next. Okay, so lets say there was no physical contact, he still allegedly couldn't keep his mouth shut with comment after comment. The victim says she saw him place his hands where they didn't belong countless times. Damn-it Bob! If any of this is true, maybe you should've walked when these allegations first came out, or when the fiancee jumped ship. I'm still in your corner Mayor Filner,...somewhat. I think they call this denial. I just don't want to believe it. Again, as I've stated before, I wonder what scum will now rise to the top.— July 23, 2013 8:26 a.m.
CHP confirm man jumped from Coronado Bridge Sunday night
What on earth can be so bad? This is a precious gift from God. An opportunity to do something. Who knows where our individual paths take us. But this,...this isn't what God intended. There are so many Hallmark card quotes I can come up with but the words don't and can't suffice. We lost a brother who was in a great deal of pain and confusion. "The signs were there," they'll say. "I just didn't think he'd go through with it." Yet for some reason, this man chose the erroneous way out. But, when there's no one to talk to........— July 22, 2013 7:29 p.m.
neighborhoods/otay-mesa -- Otay Mesa
So I start out at the Iris trolley stop yesterday going south bound. I take it to San Ysidro because when the train empties out, I can pick a seat I want. Sure, it sounds a little weird but as of lately I've become more aware of my idiosyncracies. In fact last night as my friends and I were drinking and talking I suddenly realised that the pretzels I was munching on had been neatly separated in twos and neatly set in a row for my ease of consumption. I know, OCD. Anyways! So I'm now headed north on the trolley, in a good seat in the shady section and of course I as usual doze off. I snore like a bear in hibernation in bed and anywhere else. I sure hope I don't scare too many people on a daily basis. Out of a light grey haze my eyes struggle to open as deep in the foggy distance I hear, "The next stop, 12th and Imperial Transfer station deboard here for trolleys to the convention center and the orange line. This train continues............." As my eyes focused the first thing I saw was the prettiest little pointy eared pixie sitting across from me as she and her super-hero costumed companion rose to get off the trolley Convention Center bound, thats when I realised that a good fifty percent of the people were in some kind of a costume. I know I had been dozing. Just think if I had been Dosing? Whooo! Summer 1981, El Cortez Convention Center The first Comic-con I went to. I was sold from that moment on. Happy Comic-con muddafugs!— July 20, 2013 10:46 a.m.
Jack in the Box hires lobbying firm for help with rebuild of North Park restaurant
Even if they get enough grease, it would make an impact if the neighborhood simply boycotted the restaurant. In their eargerness to turn a profit, they thought they'd get one past the people and now they thumb their collective clown noses at North Park by attempting to convince city hall. Shame on you Jack! Take the loss, build the neighborhood what it wants and get some good press outta this. Seems the logical thing to do captain!— July 20, 2013 10:15 a.m.

State Department’s recent travel advisory rankles Tijuana mayor
Heres the cold reality Sr. Bustamante. We don't deport americans or any other nationalities into your country. Unless I'm sadly mistaken and misinformed, we deport Mexicans into Mexico. After they've come to this country of their own will and broken our laws they first serve time and then, guess what? We send them back to Mexico. Would you prefer that we keep on spending american dollars and take them to their respective homes? Don't think so buddy. If you really feel the need to place blame, blame it on your sad economy that is caused by politicos (politicians) and other people in power that have been sacking your country clean for countless years thus leaving your poor and hopeless citizens no other choice but to come to the "Land of Opportunity". Until your country decides to play just as mean and dirty as the cartels do, you're going to have this problem. I'm not saying that the U.S. has a complete handle on crime ' because we're far from it. Yes, ours is the market that demands your wares thus guaranteeing the flow will continue as long as the demand is there. Change comes from within Lic. Bustamante.— July 18, 2013 9:41 p.m.
