zk, clealy you do not have any family values, probably have no morals what so ever.
how do you live with yourself?!!! =)[/quote]
You’re correct, oc. I lie, I cheat, I steal. Heck, sometimes I even murder if I think I can get away with it. Why wouldn’t I? My parents didn’t teach me anything. I wasn’t born with basic human dignity. Only people who have been taught the word of the christian god have any reason at all to be decent to their fellow human beings. Only christians have family values. Only christians are good people. The rest of us are loose cannons with no canons to guide us. Especially Jews. The Jews were all right for the first couple thousand years. But then they took a wrong turn. Silly rabbits. Wouldn’t know a messiah if he got nailed to a cross for them.

Better schools and a family christian atmosphere.[/quote]
Quite curious to know what makes you think moscin wants a christian atmosphere. That sounds positively awful to me, and a lot of people share my view. I’m curious why you assume moscin is not one of them.[/quote]
“Positively awful…” ZK your have issues with God, it’s ok. Take them up with him sooner than later, your eternity is at stake so my suggestion is sort things out sooner than you’d like.
We assume that the OP Mosocin is a family values kinda guy because he stated that he has a stay a home spouse. Most folks who make that sacrifice do it for reasons that are bigger than themselves.[/quote]
How does one have issues with another’s fantasy? I don’t think that’s possible.
You assume the OP is a family values kinda guy because he has a stay at home spouse. What does that have to do with christianity? Do you think christians have a monopoly on family values?
You see, I don’t have issues with your fantasy being. I have issues with you. And the reason I have issues with you is because you make false, hypocritical assumptions about people. And because you’re arrogant as a result of those false assumptions. You assume that because the OP has family values, he must want to be around or actually be a christian. And you assume that, because a christian atmosphere sounds awful to me, I must not have family values. While the OP may or may not be a christian, it is most certainly not a safe assumption that he is just because he has family values. And I can say for certain that it is not safe to assume that, because I don’t like a christian atmosphere, that I don’t have family values.
You have just illustrated the exact reason I don’t like a christian atmosphere. Piety without humility. The assumption that you’re better than non-christians and the arrogance and condescension that that brings. You’ve also illustrated the very common failure of christians to live up to christian values. Or is it a christian value to be arrogant?

Participant[quote=Doooh]Mt Woodsen and Archie Moore RD are just 7 minutes up the road from Poway with much better weather.
It has it’s own micro Ecosystem that thrives off the coast air that is funneled into our small valley from Torrey Pines / Del Mar cliffs and bounces off the north side of Mt Woodsen.
If your looking for brilliant weather, county taxes and no city building headaches, no HOA’s, and Elementary and Middle schools that are at the top of the heap, then come on buy and be our neighbor. We like the Christian type so if your opposed to our values you need not apply I say that as some of the poster on this thread have voiced their opposition.
If you want Golf course Country Club living we have that next to our 8 acre agriculture zoned lots with custom homes. $400-$800k price points.[/quote]
Doooh, your views on these matters are as impressive as your spelling and your grammar. Nobody said anything about christian values. Said values are irrelevant anyway, as christians don’t live up to them any more than non-christians do. You don’t get to pick who lives near you. And your schools are not “top of the heap.”

Participant[quote=sdrealtor][quote=flu]Not really… This community featured is Saratoga/ Derby Hills…. One of the most sought after areas.[/quote]
Exactly. While pricing is very strong and closer to peak than other areas this is one small niche in a larger market and not an accurate statement for the overall market there.[/quote]
Not sure if I agree with that. Unless by “small niche,” you’re talking about everything south of the 56. It’s harder to compare Lexington and Belmont to peak prices, because they sold (new) before the peak. Here’s a few that sold recently that were, in my opinion, at or near peak pricing:
http://www.redfin.com/CA/San-Diego/5267-Derby-Hill-Pt-92130/home/6315710

http://www.redfin.com/CA/San-Diego/10929-Spicewood-Ct-92130/home/4524479
These are mildly cherry-picked. But really, only mildly. The point is that it’s not really a small niche that’s selling well. In fact, I’d say that the majority of what’s selling south of the 56 is at or near peak pricing.
As far as north of the 56, I don’t know; I don’t really follow that. Possibly things there are the same.

Participant[quote=The-Shoveler]HA!!
Summers there are generally fairly hot and very humid so a lot of time stay uncomfortable even at night in July/August (unless they are on the coast).[/quote]
One of the best things about San Diego weather: Great sleeping weather 360-365 nights a year.

Participant[quote=SD Transplant]I’ve been living in Poway for over 1 year now… I used my AC 4 times last year…..go figure[/quote]
moscin,
You’ve heard a lot about the summer heat in various places in this thread. Proximity to the ocean makes a vast difference in summer temps here. The ocean is cold, and the wind blows off of it virtually every day in the summer. We have a “marine layer” (low clouds and fog) which is very prevalent in May and June, and occasional during the rest of the summer. This marine layer burns off at varying times in varying locations (sometimes not at all, even all the way to the mountains). The closer you are to the ocean, the more marine layer you’re going to get. And the closer to the ocean, the cooler it is in the summer. I’m actually finding Carmel Valley (3 miles from the ocean) a bit cool for my taste. It’s 72 most summer days here. It’s hotter the further inland you go. If I remember, Scripps Ranch was 6-10 degrees hotter than CV. At those temps, you still don’t generally have to use your ac except when the santa anas blow (very hot and dry) or during the occasional summer monsoonal moisture periods (hot and relatively humid). Poway residents can tell you the summer day temps there. The eastern parts of Poway will be hotter than the western parts. Eastern Poway is pretty hot. Ramona is really hot. Temecula, forget about it.
Just something for you to consider.

Participant[quote=moscin] We have considered some of the newer areas West of 15 but have some concerns about the culture and were thinking that Rancho Bernardo or Poway would be a little more laid back with less of a keeping up with the joneses mentality. Any insights would be appreciated. Thanks.[/quote]
As I’ve mentioned before on this forum,
http://piggington.com/how_about_steeplechase_area
there is actually less “keep up with the joneses” in Carmel Valley than there is in Scripps Ranch (I’ve lived both places) and, I would guess, less in CV than there is in RB (RB being somewhat similar to Scripps Ranch.
In Carmel Valley, you’ll pay more for a house. And for a lot of people, it’s not worth it. But, to address your “joneses” point, you’ll see less of that in CV. My theory as to why is that, in Carmel Valley, in addition to the upper-middle class demographic, you have rich people. So the upper-middle class aren’t quite so show-offy, because their escalade and their mcmansion pale in comparison to the ferarri that the guy up the street parks in his real mansion. To act uppity when you’re down at the middle of the local totem pole doesn’t really fly. And the rich are rich enough that they don’t have to try too hard. The rich people we know are all pretty humble.

That is a good idea. I wonder if there are women out there who would take it wrong. “Honey, happy Mother’s Day. I’m sending you to learn how to cook!”

Participant[quote=FormerSanDiegan]whomever it is, you gotta admit it’s pretty finny. markrnax looks exactly like markmax in the font used as the username. Clever ![/quote]
Ok, then it’s FormerSanDiegan. (kidding)
I think that possibly someone is trying to illustrate to the real markmax what a fool he is.
Trust me, he won’t see it.

Participant[quote=Rich Toscano]markmax33 (the real one):
I’m going to ask you — once again — to not post these dedicated Ron Paul cheerleading threads. Yes, there is an off-topic section of the forum, but you are abusing it by aggressively spamming it with repetitive “advocacy” threads (as opposed to actual discussion) that nobody seems to be interested in.[/quote]
markmax, you’re a clown.

ParticipantI don’t know if water is more expensive in Carmel Valley, but I don’t know anyone whose water bill is less than $150 for two months. Some friends with huge, grassy yards and pools pay 4 times that much and more. I’d say the average in CV is close to $250 for two months.

Participant[quote=harvey][quote=sdrealtor]Did he really try to compare the market for elective cosmetic surgery to the rest of “the medicine”?[/quote]
The rest of medicine: Cured smallpox, polio, and hundreds of other diseases that were the major causes of death throughout human history, particularly children.
Plastic surgery: Bigger boobs.
It’s close, but I’d give the win to plastic surgery.[/quote]
That is the funniest thing I’ve heard in a long time.

Participant[quote=poorgradstudent]
You haven’t read The Jungle, have you?There are things Government always is more efficient at: National Defense and Highways are two obvious examples. There are things the private sector does extremely well. Working in biotech I can tell you that drug discovery doesn’t work without both government and free market factors in play. The free market is great at bringing products to market and making them affordable to the mass market. But overall the free market is TERRIBLE at swing-for-the-fences, so crazy it just might work ideas. The very internet we are using would not really exist without government help. Otherwise we’d probably have a patchwork of AOL/Compuserve type networks and company intranets; think mid to late 90s.
History has clearly shown regulated free markets work best of all. Blanket statements about free market or government always being better are at best overly simplistic and at worst ignorant.[/quote]
The problems with your idea, poorgradstudent, are that, even in the simplified and abbreviated version you present 1)it doesn’t translate into a sound bite and 2)it doesn’t fit with any radical ideologies. So you can’t sell it to simple-minded people or those with short attention spans. And if you lose those two groups, it’s tough to win an election.
