Farewell to a professional love
Don, you have helped to educate a great many people regarding what goes on in San Diego political and development circles. We are all the better for it. Thanks so very much for your honest, clear and reasoned approach, something that is not all that common these days. You are a wise man, and we are fortunate to have had the benefit of your wisdom. I wish you all good things, and hope to read more from you as your schedule permits. "Bless bless" as the Icelanders say!— October 4, 2018 3:33 p.m.
Manchester’s Navy Broadway complex: hurry up and wait
Something should be built, but this particular rendition looks chunky and unattractive. I will go out on a limb and say it looks like a squat version of the Rockefeller Center, without the artistry.— October 23, 2017 3:57 p.m.
Engineering a miracle
Excellent and timely repost/print. But, is there more to the last sentence?— October 21, 2017 4:53 a.m.
Pirates of Penzance skewers Victorian Culture
Gilbert and Sullivan had a genius for transforming cultural critique into art, and they had some great jokes! Word-play that is still dazzling, lovely melodies, speeches that require deadpan delivery (yet are completely ridiculous) require a touch that is light, accurate and strong enough to get everything across. For me it is transcendent fun. Go see it! (Which I imagine the chorus singing to the "Poor fellow!" line, only with vast amounts of joy conveyed)...— October 21, 2017 4:26 a.m.
Public relations hiring binge
So is there a chance we will really find out what goes on with the books at Civic San Diego?— October 12, 2017 12:05 p.m.
Where will future Chula Vistans go to school?
And the song keeps playing! This is why we really need that forensic audit going back about 20 years. Yes, we have a new superintendent, but there appears to be a stranglehold on the thinking and planning--emanating from? This Sweetwater USD still owns multiple properties--for what purpose? They were all purchased ostensibly for new administrative offices, but why purchase 4 different properties (non adjacent) for one administrative building? There has been much dishonesty, and the public is still paying for it. It is time--far past time--to cut out all the nonsense, and tell the public what is really going on with Sweetwater finances. Then we can have a hope of being able to plan for the future. We really do need honest leadership in this community--for the schools, for all of us. Why should we have to tolerate decades of misappropriation of funds? Why should we have to tolerate decades of obfuscation? Why should we have to tolerate decades of smirking administrators and their cohorts in (alleged) crime cooking up plausible tales for where the money is (and isn't)? We know there was a major scam on that iPOD purchase of several years ago--and while LAUSD was able to crack their mess on that score, Sweetwater didn't even try. It really makes me wonder.— September 12, 2017 7:14 a.m.
District Attorney yet to file charges against former Poway Schools chief
Odd, though, that the CFO who was also charged originally is still on the job. Ugly business.— July 24, 2017 9:25 p.m.
Guys and Dolls — high-brow and low-brow
Great show! Performances were sterling, the dance numbers dazzled. The full-voiced choral numbers had such a rich sound that I sometimes didn't want the chords to end. Don't miss it!!— July 13, 2017 2:41 p.m.
Morris Cerullo gets nod for Bible resort in Mission Valley
Why does the phrase 'white elephant' come to mind?— June 27, 2017 12:36 a.m.
PigPen’s doozy about the end of the world
Great show! Innovative and talented crew, excellent musicians, all of them. Worth seeing, for all ages.— June 10, 2017 5:43 p.m.
