Grammys issue statement defending nomination of local activist’s metal rant
It's just you and RM Brown on YouTube who seemed to take that rant to heart. We need to "keep that little smug" (another soundboard bit Brown rescued from a parking lot rant after a student board meeting) as "we take the towers down" (another snippet) or San Diego will be "a dumping ground" (East County Community Newspapers reporting on the Spring Valley Community Planning Group in 1996.)— December 3, 2021 3:24 p.m.
Mayor explains decision to educate commuters by flooding portion of I-5
Almost an anti-laugh riot. You want to cover a building fiasco, look at Lennar Homes still-under-construction "Aventine" tract housing development on Austin Drive and Sweetwater Springs Blvd. or the new K&B Home development they are putting up on Jamacha Blvd. and Sweetwater Springs Blvd. to match the one they built across the street ("Sweetwater Village") that they are calling "Crestline." If there is a flood, some of these places will be washed out or ruined because they are on the areas that used to catch water in that part of the 91977 area code. Plus there is the question of load placed on the rickety So-Cal. electrical grid and if the sewage lines can handle the large new input.— December 3, 2021 3:18 p.m.
Starring roles in the Copley Union-Tribune: James, Helen, Michael, David
.....And now it's all a husk of it's former self. Sad story, *The Union-Tribune*'s history once the Coplys gave it up.— November 2, 2021 3:03 p.m.
Nathan Hubbard returns to La Cage aux Folles
Nathan Hubbard looks like SDSU professor Peter C. Herman's brother.....almost. Play that *In Search of....* theme!— November 2, 2021 2:59 p.m.
Tijuana installs fence around El Chaparral migrant camp
*.....The census showed that 53.6 percent of the inhabitants are Mexican nationals; one of those is Oscar Hernandez who comes from Mexico City fleeing due to the insecurity her family was exposed to.....“This is the best place we could find because we have no relatives here. We are not here because we want to. Even me as a Mexican I have felt discrimination to be migrant, especially from the police. I think because of the insecurity this is a good measure, but I personally feel trapped. They are putting us in cages as if we were animals, and we are all human beings here.”* What utter madness the drug war has created south of the US border.— November 2, 2021 2:53 p.m.
Barbara Bry readies run for San Diego County Assessor
Ernest Dronenberg, Jr. was on the California state Board of Equalization for 20+ years before he was elected to his present position in 2011. So he is a career state politician/bureaucrat. He's also 78 years old. If he runs again, he will be riding the tiger into his grave, and you might have a special election to replace him.— October 9, 2021 9:24 p.m.
Fritz Lang’s Metropolis — ninety-four years after its release
Scott "Karl" Marks is on the money; we need that full version if it can ever be pieced together from scraps and whatnot. My first time seeing it was the Moroder version as a VHS rental, and I saw the restored version down at the Ken Cinema (bring that back!) a few years ago.— October 9, 2021 9:05 p.m.
College-Rolando Library could end up with no parking
Why was the church demolished? Are they going to cut off the cul-de-sac that connects the library to Mowhawk Street (behind the Ralphs supermarket)? These dumb housing projects for SDSU will wind up being regular apartments after a while or mixed-population buildings, just watch. Covid-19 has done a number on the university.— September 21, 2021 9:32 p.m.
San Diego tacos – from the beginning to now
Four days and no comments. It was a good overview of our taco joints, excluding the Cotijas chain or any discussion of the '80s insanity of Carlos Murphys.— August 8, 2021 2:55 p.m.
