From “meh” to “yay”
Troy's has been there a long time. It's worth checking out their Sunday brunch. They have American breakfast stuff like eggs, French toast, bacon, sausages... and also gyro meat, salad, and other Greek specialties.— February 27, 2016 6:05 p.m.
Chargers redeclare wish for downtown stadium
Moving the MTS yard would take about 5 years. They have to find a site large enough. If it is near water, the Coastal Commission has to be involved as well as the Port Commission. It would require an environmental impact study. It would have to acquire and cobble together land and most likely use eminent domain. Considering the MTS yard has been ground zero for the public bus population for years, all routes and roads lead to it. It has been estimated that moving that yard in any direction from its present location will increase the cost to MTS at a rate of about $1 million per 5 minutes of travel time. Therefore, move it south a little, 5 minutes farther from where it is and add $1 million more in operating costs. Move it to Mission Valley, add at least $3 million a year. That is from the additional person-hour time, energy and wear-and-tear. Is Dean Spanos, the Chargers or the NFL going to pick up *those* additional costs (each year) that would be directly attributed to moving the MTS yard to accommodate a stadium? Does Spanos even care that doing so will most likely increase the cost of public transportation for everyone? Then we have to consider these promoters are talking about a billion dollar stadium. They don't often mention the inevitable cost-overruns or the fact that by 2021 the real cost will be closer to 2 billion dollars. Again, who pays for MTS to buy their land, build new facilities and move their operations? The taxpayers and the riders?— February 26, 2016 6:36 p.m.
Is the Chargers' favorite city about to get dirtied up?
James Chatfield. He looks like Max Headroom. Anyone remember Max Headroom?— February 25, 2016 10:06 p.m.
Chargers redeclare wish for downtown stadium
Mark Fabiani, John Moores, Dean Spanos, Fred Maas, Kevin Faulconer, Ron Roberts and Jan Goldsmith. What could go wrong? There was a movie in 1960 called the Seven Thieves. Starring Edward G. Robinson, Rod Steiger and Joan Collins. Maybe they can make a sequel.— February 24, 2016 10:08 a.m.
Introducing Faulconer's brain, ethically speaking
Faulconer and brain, are mutually exclusive.— February 23, 2016 11:44 p.m.
Chargers redeclare wish for downtown stadium
Actually Comic Con officials do not like the stadium idea and prefer a contiguous convention center. Muddying the water on a downtown convention center expansion is a public welfare scheme that only benefits Spanos, if voters are foolish enough to buy into all the false statistics and voodoo math of the spinmasters.— February 23, 2016 11:32 p.m.
Doug Manchester flips Rhode Island mansion
Rhode Island. Could they see Russia from their house? I thought the papa bought it for Genya so when she got homesick (of mother Russia) she could gaze across the sea to reconnect. Live in the harsh East Coast long frigid winters.— February 21, 2016 9:44 p.m.
John Doe likes his free porn
This IP address 76.176.139.46 is located in North County. It is a Time Warner IP address out of their Carlsbad internet exchange point. So they discovered that ISP's like Time Warner will rollover and give up the records to lawyers. They probably make more money on the legal settlements than their porn business.— February 21, 2016 9:24 a.m.
Give up the keys, drunkie
Agreed. It is counter-intuitive to the business interest. Bartenders already know they are not supposed to over serve. So are you going to return from "training" and start kicking out customers? That's bad for business. Some people with higher tolerances can drink more and not show signs of intoxication, but are still unsafe to drive. How do you tell? Make your customers blow into a BAC device? There already are laws to help with this problem. Undercover stings, bars that have too many complaints and drunk in public problems should not have their hands slapped, their licenses should be suspended for a year or revoked for good. That would send a message to bars that they must be more careful. Also, on the punishment side, the DUI penalties are not severe enough. First time offense should be a month in jail, no getting out the next morning. That would make a point and reduce recidivism.— February 21, 2016 8:57 a.m.
Give up the keys, drunkie
Lorena Gonzalez was drinking with and drunk at the capitol when Ben Hueso, her "Latino homie" got a DUI after being pulled over driving on the wrong side of the street. Get your act together in the capital Lorena. Lorena is the drunkie.— February 20, 2016 10:32 p.m.
