Participant[quote=bobby]I do my own cleaning. Put on the pair of headphone and with Marketplace, freakonomics or planet money (wonderful programs from NPR) and the hour just goes by in a jiffy.
Why does it take 8 hours to clean the house and why does it requires cleaning every 2 weeks.[/quote]
Kids. They’re gross.
ParticipantSeems like only yesterday the antigay marriage protestor were lining winchester rd. Where are those losers today? Sad looking bunch really…overweight, shabby looking, angry….just unattractive. By now, at least a handful of their kids are figuring out they’re gay….hope it all works out for them…
ParticipantThe constitution is the supreme law of the land. And conservatives say they take it literally, except when they dont, as in citizens united.
Intellectually honest people admit that you gotta interpret the old doc.
ParticipantPolygamy doesn’t fit into the current modern romantic narrative …
ParticipantIt can be difficult to traverse the entire valley. But there’s little subareas to shop. I’m 3 miles or so from a sprouts. Easy.
Participant[quote=svelte]$100 every two weeks, takes 3-4 hours. 3000 sf.
We’ve used her for probably a decade. Never anything questionable – no broken items, nothing missed, nothing missing, very thorough.
We’ve got a house that is shall we say unusual…never any questions asked. It all gets cleaned. Sometimes I’d like to see her reaction to the various rooms though…not for the prudish or faint-hearted.[/quote]
What the heck is going on there in svelte lair?
Years ago we had someone at 160 a,day. Good, but too much. We clean ourselves. It’s good exercise.
ParticipantI w Ish I were gay today. Be so cool.
Participant[quote=svelte]I’ve actually been considering this. My wife and I take walks now, but used to bike in norcal in a city that was very flat. The hills around here have kept us from biking….I figure if I could get a motorized bike we could pedal on the flat stretches and kick in the motor for uphill…I think that would be fun!
When we first moved to SM I bought an old 1960s green Schwinn at a garage sale with the intent of getting wifey and I back into biking. The hills killed that idea. We had a garage sale one day and at the back of the garage was that old green Schwinn. A guy in the driveway spotted it and offered me an enormous sum for it. Off it went in the back of his truck. Odd the way life works out sometimes.[/quote]
Try a rental. You will be amused. It’s like a magic carpet
Participant[quote=rockingtime]My friends consider me crazy as my car is worth $2K and my new bike was $4K. I love riding on hills…[/quote]
Absolutely reasonable
ParticipantMarriage carries a TAX PENALTY for dual earners. I think this ruling was just to increase taxes.
Participant[quote=AN][quote=FlyerInHi]I was hoping that ACA and gay marriage would continue to be issues in 2016.
As a political sportsman, I would rather have had political matches as the legislative level in every state. Great entertainment. We would have ended up with a progressive America, and a redneck America. People and businesses would have voted with their feet and eventually redneck America would have been totally huminiliated and impoverished into capitulation.But for the sake of the Union and national unity, I’m gratified that my side has won on so many front. We won because we have better, superior ideas.[/quote]Life must be good when you live in black and white.[/quote]
50 shades of grey…one 4 each state…
ParticipantGay marriage is legal. But the opinion doesn’t mention divorce. Conservatives may argue that at Gay people are stuck in their marriage. All the straight people can then flee the institution and set up a new type of marriage. Call it straight marriage. We can give new special benefits to married straights, like free ponies.

This being said, as a whole, FUCK the average American TV-watching sheep and FUCK the US mainstream media for perpetuating a culture of fear during a time where crime is down..[/quote]Have you ever tried standing back and trying to see how you look as an impartial third party?[/quote]
We like being terrified.
Participant[quote=temeculaguy]Not all Temeculans are commuting to jobs in the city of San Diego. The 2011 census reports that 38,000 people commuted daily from riverside county to San Diego county. Southwest riverside county has probably 300-500k people. So that’s somewhere around 10%. But not many of those commute to the City of San Diego, most commute to the North County, where the actual jobs are for most who make the move. Surprisingly that’s where many of the good jobs and the job growth is.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_County_%28San_Diego_area%29#cite_note-CPA-3
One highlight from the wikipedia article on the North county:
“In modern times, North County continues to grow as a highly influential region of Greater San Diego. The top twenty-five employers in San Diego County are closer to the North County city of Carlsbad than San Diego proper.”
The North County is becoming the center of the county economically in some ways and SW riverside’s commuters are more than likely going there as opposed to Downtown.
http://www.bestplaces.net/transportation/city/california/temecula
Shows the average temeculan commutes 33 minutes, 8 minutes longer than the average american.
I know there are some people with crazy commutes, but that is anecdotal, not average. We are not spending decades driving 3-4 hours per day. A few might be, but it’s not the majority. There are also probably Chula Vista residents driving to Escondido to work.Probably not all and probably not be design, but I’ll bet they exist.
The future Mrs. TG drives to the Northern half of San Marcos, she moved in with me a a few years ago and she will retire in about 5-7 years, she moved from North Park and now her drive is shorter. Many people do not work for an employer with a single building and over the years their work location, even with the same employer can change, especially as part of a promotion. When she moved to North Park she was close to work, but that didn’t last long and the majority of the time she lived there she was commuting to the North County. Her tiny rental cost as much as my mortgage, so that can be a reason for people as jobs move, lower cost housing and a shorter commutes can be one in the same. You ask why someone would commute and lose time, I ask why someone would pay a large part of their income to live close to things they cannot afford to do, it’s all based on the individual, their specific situation and what they want. I bought my car in 2011, I have put 10k total miles on it in the last 4 years (2,500 a year) which included driving it to vegas once or twice and to northern california about once per year and I live in Temecula. I bought it used and the tires were already worn a bit so I recently had to buy tires, but they will probably rot before the tread wears off since it will be 15 years before the estimated 40k tread life estimate is reached. But that’s also anecdotal and not average. I realize that. So if your world is south of I-8, this is not for you, don’t buy here, but understand your experience is not everyone’s, its just your experience.[/quote]
Weird. It took me exactly 33 minutes to ride to work the other day on my electric bike. However I was hauling ass.
