Better read than dead

Better read than dead
Don: The Union~Tribrune lost nearly ALL of its credibility the day you retired! I'm correct, right? Or, was that too obvious?— May 24, 2015 4:14 p.m.
This Chargers stadium proposal? Watch it.
The key phrase in my mind is "does not RAISE taxes". But a whole lot of the taxes we all pay will be diverted. Then we will be told there isn't enough money to pay for the ever growing list of the city's infrastructure needs will be sucked into the new football stadium. This exact same scenario was "sold" to the taxpayers for Petco Park. All of the promised development was going to pay the bond financing, yet we all know that the city is spending millions annually on Petco Park.— May 18, 2015 5:59 p.m.
Inbred sex, drugs, and I want my money back
Yep. At the Hubbs Institute. http://hswri.org— May 12, 2015 4:31 p.m.
City attorney and council call it a surcharge
Our elected leaders "weasel" around because they enjoy spending OPM. They also know San Diegans, in general, are a tax adverse lot.— May 4, 2015 8:20 p.m.
Water deal with Imperial Valley on the line
"...our infrastructure may have been plotted and constructed based on weather expectations that were erroneous." If that turns out to be the case, and this dry period lasts for an 'extended' period, Southern California may become the Detroit of the West.— April 29, 2015 2:29 p.m.
Water deal with Imperial Valley on the line
Or, could just be Mother Nature's natural cycle of wet or dry periods? I'm just wondering if the Govenor will institute a building moratorium now that we are in a drought.— April 29, 2015 12:36 p.m.
Utilities on the trail to tiers
Guess I just got screwed on the ROI on my 30K solar system. 😡😭— April 23, 2015 4:33 p.m.
Bicycle trap
While the idea has merit, it's one thing to pick up trash along our freeways, typically part of some sort of community service ordered by the Courts. It's something else when we are talking about properly "maintaining" a roadway or actual street surface.— April 19, 2015 12:21 p.m.
Bicycle trap
As a person who rides about 100 miles a week I can attest to the poor condition of not only the bike lanes on, or adjacent to, our network of roads, but also to the deterioration of dedicated bike paths where motor vehicles are not allowed. Remember bikes typically don't have a forgiving suspension system, like cars, so every rut, bulge from a nearby tree root, pothole, gap, loose gravel or debris is hazardous to the rider. Combine this with the hundreds of new "DecoRide" bike sharing bikes recently installed by the City and its bike sharing partner and we have a formula for some potential disasters. It reminds me of the City's short sighted logic on the maintenance of trees in the public right of way. By eliminating tree trimming the city saved a few dollars but paid millions when one of the trees fell, severely injuring a citizen. Our bike lanes and paths are another potential problem that can be averted by properly maintaining them. While I believe it is my responsibility to ride defensively and obey the rules of the road, the poor condition of the bike lanes & paths, their inadequate design and lack of ongoing maintenance or upkeep will prove costly to the City.— April 19, 2015 12:06 p.m.
