Pssst! Hot Dogs Actually Are Good Here
Sprouts?? So it went from Boneys to Henrys to Spouts??? That is a lot of name changing, not good for continuity....— December 2, 2011 9:53 p.m.
University City Bikini Lady Reunited with Her Missing Dog
I am so glad her dog was returned, these are family members for many of us.....if a school nurse pilfered the little Chi then she should be fired....— December 2, 2011 9:33 p.m.
Dreaming in Craigslist
Networking is the key. Have you called any old friends who have good jobs? Have you called old bosses? Sit down and write out a list of the people you know? == I agree with you 100T%, networking is by far the best way to hook up a decent job. The problem is those who have no job experience (new HS or college grads) or those come from a lower soci-economic class, these populations don't have valuable networking connections and for them networking is not going to get them far, but for people who have been in the job market 5-10-15 or more years I agree totally. BTW Joaquin-I like your profile pic!— December 2, 2011 9:31 p.m.

Suicide Kit Peddler Dodged Taxes
The FBI hasn't prosecuted a single scammer from the mortgage and financial meltdown on Wall Street costing billiosn and even trillions in losses, but they can spend limited and precious resources on a $26K tax debt of a 90 year old lady.....yes, this country is certainly on the right track!!!!!!— December 2, 2011 9:25 p.m.
Good Old Boys’ Club Exposed at Sweetwater Union High School District Meeting?
SUHSD is a great district, and by great I mean the kids. These clowns that run it are morons. Brand is the biggest moron of them all-that is why he was canned in San Marcos. The entire admin is a good old boys club. I have been involved with many school districts and this is a common operations theme. Cronyism and incompetence.— December 2, 2011 2:46 p.m.
Alleged Killer Michael David Robles Arraigned
There are a lot of RO's given out. IMO RO's mean nothing. They are pieces of paper with no way to enforce them. Sure, if there are blatant violations you could try to get a contempt of court charge, or even misdemeanor charges, but there must be solid evidence for that and to be honest a few days in the can are not deterents to a person bent on murder. There is really no defense to someone that is willing risk everything to kill with you premeditation. Nothing. No one can defend themselves against a person bent on killing you with premeditation and udner stealth, a sneak attack-like what happened here. Best advice is to buy a firearm and learn how to handle it. The part that kills me is this woman had a daughter who will never see her mother again, will never have that bond for life with her natural parent. Reminds me of the guy that killed 8 people in Seal Beach last month-including his wife-over custody of his 8 year old son. Now the son has no mother - and a father that will be in prison for life if he is not executed. Sad when the heart drives people to do such unrational injustices.— December 2, 2011 2:41 p.m.
Tragedy at Legoland Hotel

Pssst! Hot Dogs Actually Are Good Here
Duhbya, thank you for that history lesson. I had NO IDEA that 7-11 started here in San Diego by Hen ry Boney, or that the original names were Speedee Mart (reminds me of the Simpsons) then Speedee 7-11. I did know the name was 7-11 because those were the hours-7AM until 11PM- up until the 1980's. Remember, grocery stores used to close at 9 or 10PM back in the day. When I worked at Trader Joe's while attending SDSU the hours were 9-9.— December 2, 2011 2:14 p.m.
Unemployment Rate Falls; Job Growth Disappointing
8.6% is the NATIONAL U/E rate and it is highly misleading because the drop accounts for people who have dropped out of the equation, those who have been out of work 6 months or more. NOT thos ehwo have found jobs. And the few jobs that are out there-and dopped the rate- are retail for the shopping season and are minimum wage jobs. The CA U-6 UE rate is STILL at 22%.— December 2, 2011 2:08 p.m.
