Lincoln High School was designed to fail
Affirmative Action; the gift that keeps on giving.— December 13, 2018 9:57 p.m.
Rib tips are beckoning
I always enjoy, maybe not agree with, Ed's reviews. One thing I don't enjoy is food that is microwaved. Reading this concerns Yelp reviews says he nukes the food while it is in the styrofoam container.— November 16, 2018 6:06 p.m.
Zapf falls to Campbell
Epilogue: Lorie Zapf is rightfully voted out. Eric Zapf, the bankrupt, sometimes real estate salesman, may have to work instead of being a stay at home dad. Lorie can save on teeth whitening sessions and maybe go back to baking energy bars. Sometimes the voters get it right. They sure did in this case of political malfeasance.— November 15, 2018 7:31 p.m.

Mayor Dedina welcomes Marines to I.B.
I hope you all have extra room for these "refugees" because if you don't you're all like the rest of them, bitching about PC humanity causes without any corresponding or balancing solutions. Enjoy staring at your navels.— November 12, 2018 10:17 p.m.
Barry Minkow movie is finally out

What Prop 6 is repealing in San Diego
I have solar. I drive an electric car. I don't buy gas. I own my home, not rent. Prop. 6 is an attitude, not an enemy.— November 11, 2018 7:25 p.m.
What Prop 6 is repealing in San Diego
The Anti-gas tax people are easily startled, but they'll soon be back, and in greater numbers.— November 6, 2018 10:36 p.m.
What Prop 6 is repealing in San Diego
As we have seen in the past, the gas tax money is largely diverted away from roads and what little funding that is provided to roads is riddled with waste, fraud and abuse. State Sen. John Moorlach, R-Costa Mesa, released an independent analysis of CalTrans’ budget showing that only 20 percent of the gas tax funds were spent anywhere near roads. Where do the politicians divert the gas tax money to? The funding has been diverted to cover budget deficits so politicians can continue to spend in other areas like higher salaries and pensions for state workers. For example, bus drivers in the Bay Area are earning six figures annually — with one bus driver earning $227,516 in pay and benefits last year alone! Of the funds actually spent on infrastructure, the majority of funds get diverted from roads to transit buses, light rail projects, bike lanes (to replace roads), and even park land acquisition.— November 6, 2018 9:27 a.m.
San Diego judge upholds Julie Harper’s 40-year sentence
Julie deserves every minute in prison. I was relieved that her appeal for a lesser sentence wasn’t granted. I either missed something or never understood a few questions. Did the decedent (her husband) know that Julie possessed a handgun, and when did he know? Buying a handgun is not an easy, immediate process… it takes a background check and proficiency in gun safety laws. So when, why, how did the handgun come into Julie’s possession? Having no access to the court reporters record, I have to guess that Julie purchased the handgun. Because if her husband purchased the handgun, and it was not secured, Julie’s defense could have explored some interesting arguments.— October 29, 2018 9:43 p.m.
