Jihadists threaten San Diego's Mormon temple
I don't believe in that don't-do-such-and-such-or-the-terrorists-win baloney, but I didn't go to December Nights in Balboa Park last weekend. On the other hand, I'm not going to go just to prove a point either. We live in rotten times.— December 5, 2017 9:55 p.m.
Shocker! CPUC unanimously thumbs down SDG&E
"Ratepayers are not supposed to pay for mistakes by management." Except when they are forced to by the chicanery of the utilities and the bogus oversight of the tainted California Public Utilities Commission. Anyway, yippee, finally a ruling in favor of the screwed-over rate-paying public! Thank you to persistent lawyers Mike Aguirre and Mia Severson. The disgraceful collusion of Governor Jerry Brown with his hand-picked corporate lapdogs on the California Public Utilities Commission will follow him into his cabin retirement off the grid up in Colusa. In this Time of Trump, we don't need such disappointment.— November 30, 2017 3:06 p.m.
Congresswoman claims a Filner groping (years ago)
Ironically and unforgivably.— November 25, 2017 6:25 p.m.
SDG&E and AT&T’s turkey times
Sounds to me like you know how the San Diego County Democratic Central Committee works, ICare. It is venal and close to corrupt -- though they are saved by their ever-changing by-laws and the selfish energy of Lorena Gonzalez who makes the trains run on time -- that is, in favor of her passive ideology-free husband and her own power-agenda.— November 25, 2017 3:46 p.m.
SDG&E and AT&T’s turkey times
Talk about turkeys! Thankful you mentioned Lorena Gonzalez's calculating boy-toy getting $25,000+ from the Democratic Party in his run for County Supervisor. It's a sharp reminder never to give the Democratic Party's online fundraising ActBlue a dime until they reform their big-money operation that is merely a clone of the GOP model.— November 24, 2017 6:10 p.m.
Papa Doug’s big wait
Papa Doug Manchester's troubled hotels sound like Governor Jerry Brown's bullet train --costing a fortune but going nowhere due to delays, cost overruns and lack of leadership. And, come to think of it, like President Trump's SOHO hotel in New York City that he (or the kids) recently walked away from for lack of tenants.— November 24, 2017 5:58 p.m.
Car won from casino still undelivered
Thank you, Don, for noting on Thanksgiving Day that the headline is pretty much White Europeans Trounce Native Americans and Descendants of Black Slaves in this country of ours. Even so, this is an interesting story about what one can and cannot recover from tribal casinos.— November 24, 2017 5:46 p.m.
Cory Briggs sues Navy, Edison, SDG&E, Dept. of Defense
Lawyer clutter at the bench may be a problem, but it seems to me that the situation is sufficiently dire -- public safety and Edison treachery --that Briggs' waiting his turn could be a disastrously calculated risk that, as a longtime environmentalist (as well as a practiced litigator) he might find unsupportable.— November 17, 2017 1:09 p.m.
Cory Briggs sues Navy, Edison, SDG&E, Dept. of Defense
What to do? The idea of "storing" radioactive waste along the beach at shuttered San Onofre Nuclear Generating plant in Orange County is mad. Aguirre has been fighting the utilities for years and correctly understands that Briggs' strategy of suing everyone in sight may be rash, but what else is there to do?— November 16, 2017 9:28 p.m.
Scripps Ranch — cows gone, rattlers remain
Re the high-falutin' vocab, I had to look up the word "recondite" which I recognized but didn't know what it meant. So thanks for that, Moss Gropen.— November 15, 2017 11:05 p.m.
