Don’t leave me hanging, I can make the afternoon part or the evening, however I don’t have a ticket to the concert (I assume it’s jazz if it’s at thortons).
Dinner? What time is the show? The crowd you all rolling with? The attire? It’s a real town now brother, we got options (notice I said “we” that the art of inviting oneself. At first glance I’d say The Public House in old town, a personal fave. But post concert, based on the time the show ends, it might be limiting, late night work nights tend to be more angled toward the casino. Pre concert, while still in golf attire, perhaps some pub grub at Killarneys. I’ll send you private message and remind you of my cell #, however it doesn’t bother me to post the specifics and and allow any fellow temecula piggs to jump in, so I’m not left holding my $%^^ after you all roll to the concert without me. I can’t make either golf session, sunday morn is tied up till noon and Monday morning I have to work, but your local guide is free sunday afternoon/evening.

I see it math vs. vocabulary. sdr was one of many “math” bears here on piggington pre-2007. Now he’s a “math” bull, yet his valuations have remained essentially the same. Most of the math bears bought houses and chose not to fight with those showing up late to the game, sdr, weel, he is what I call “likes to fight guy.”
For instance, if in 2006 he felt property x was worth 700k and it was selling for 1.1 million, he’d say so, they called him a bear. If in 2011 it is for sale at 650k and he thinks it’s slightly undervalued, he’d say so, they call him a bull. He hasn’t changed, but the label he gets has.
Then there are the vocabulary bulls and bears, math means nothing to them. No matter the price or the math, they have their rhetoric and it won’t change.

July 21, 2011 at 6:52 PM in reply to: OT:Looming Disaster for the Temecula Area: Liberty Quarry/Mega Mine #711719temeculaguyParticipantThis used to be my favorite pastime, defending temecula, but I can see my services are no longer needed, you guys are doing just fine. And the next time sdrealtor comes this way, I’m dragging him to doffo winery and after he realizes he was only drinking at the large touristy wineries, he is man enough to admit it and I will make him write about on the boards. But it is true, Sonoma and Napa weren’t much to write home about 40 years ago, their accolades and snootiness is a recent thing in the grand scheme of things. If you choose to ignore winemaking regions outside of the chosen ones, and if those regions don’t take notice, they will be overun, it’s happened before, ask the french.
Now about dorm rooms and college rentals, I’m totally against buying a college rental. I’m just going to suck it up and pay the bill because there is something about the experience that i enjoyed and there are too many variables at play. Plus the odds are fair that they end up joining a fraternity or sorority, as their parents and grandparents all did (sorry, it’s in our DNA, we are joiners) and then they will miss out on living in the fraternity/sorority house if I bought a place. Age 18-22 is no time to be practical and sensible, there’s plenty of time for that later.
I also read one of the college’s website that we are applying to an interesting fact, now that they have a surplus of dorms due to lower enrollment and they are not just for freshman like they were in my day. Of kids that stay in the dorms for two years, they have a 90% chance of making it to their junior year, those that stay one year have a 78% chance and those that live at home or in a rental,having never lived in the dorms, only a 58% chance. It helps to make some friends and the dorms kinda put you in a situation where you almost have to. I’m an odds guy, plus it includes food, it’s just freaking money and after this there will hopefully be some gravy years where everyone is off the dole and my balance sheet. Plus, it was so much fun that if they would take my money and let me live there, I’d do it again tomorrow, even though its creepy.

Your old “throw my sucker in the sand” and short sale plan just didn’t pencil out, you weren’t as screwed as you sometimes think. You are probably cash nuetral with the one you are renting out if not close, you cant walk away from those, eventually the sun will come out and cash nuetrals will become cash cows. I have some friends and relatives doing the same thing, I envy them and you, but I specialize in missed opportunities, it’s my calling card, no reason to change now. Plus I just spent the last two hours picking colleges with one of my kids, when did dorms cost a grand a month to split 80 square feet, jesus!
