ParticipantMy pet peeves are: 1)Men who turn into complete idiots around beautiful women. Even if the women are lazy, mean, selfish or foolish. And 2)Beautiful women who seem to feel entitled to have all men to turn into idiots around them.
ParticipantHillary is showing some very bad judgement right now (and for the past couple months) in my opinion. Staying in the race to beat up Obama and hurt the Democrats’ chances of winning in November when she has no real chance of winning seems like a bad decision. She’s also showing a George Bush-like disconnect from reality when she says this morning that “everything is going well” for her campaign. That’s pretty scary. Another commander in chief whose personal capacity for denial will endanger our country is exactly what we don’t need.
I’m also somewhat disappointed in Obama for the negativity of his campaign over the last month or two. All he had to do was stay above the fray and let Clinton show herself to be the egomaniacal machine that she is. But he didn’t, which shows bad judgement and also goes against what he says he’s about. Disappointing, but I still think he’s the best choice.
As a side note, I’m starting to understand why the right hates Hillary so much. I think it’s a personality thing. And her personality is really extremely grating to me. Her self-centeredness, galaxy-sized ego, stilted attempts at humor, apparent meanness and condescension really add up to something quite annoying.

ParticipantRichard,
As someone also living in CV and keeping a very close eye on the market, I agree with FLU that you should find another agent. It seems to me that it should be clear that either: a. your agent has her interests in mind and not yours, or b. your agent doesn’t really know what’s going on. Either way, she should be replaced.
Exploring option a: Surely you’re aware, Richard, that there is a percentage (a very large percentage, in my opinion, but that’s debatable) of realtors out there who will tell you half-truths in order to get you to buy (or sell) and get themselves a commission, regardless of whether it’s in your best interests.
Option b: I’d say “b” is more likely, and that your agent is probably in denial. Down at the realty office, all the talk is happy talk and all the opinions are colored. Plus she gets propoganda from Lawrence Yun in the mail every day. And that’s all she hears all day and she wants to believe it. So she believes it.
If “b” is true, then you should run quickly away. Obviously you shouldn’t trust someone who can’t deal with reality to handle the biggest (I’m assuming) financial transaction of your life. If “a” is true, you should back away slowly without making any sudden moves, because you never know what someone like that is capable of.

ParticipantBack when there was a whole different crowd here, we had a couple meetups. Good times. We had them in a pizza place in, I think, Encinitas. I think something towards the I-15 might be more central, though. There’s an Oggi’s near Carmel Mountain road that would be good. Any night but Sunday or Monday works for me. Let’s do it.
