It is a really sad day when I get excited about gas being just under four dollars. However I was driving around for work today and found at under $4.00. Needless to say I filled up my tank. The station was Chevron on Beach Blvd. at Lampson in Stanton. Regular gas was $3.75.

I was in San Francisco this past weekend and the one thing that struck me the most when I was at the markets-were the lack of plastic shopping bags. San Fran has passed an ordinance restricting plastic bags in grocery stores. Everyone shops with a canvas or cloth bag or a basket.
Earth Day was just last week and it is a great idea. Why load up on ...

There have been riots in Egypt and Haiti due to a lack of rice. In the US, Sam's Club and Costco have been limiting the number of bags customers can buy. This is really rather shameful as ...

Yes they are up 50 cents from a year ago. My car has a 12 gallon tank and I was abhorred that filling up at the tank ...

I have no explantion for the recent rise again of gas prices in Southern California.  Gas prices are up 7.7 cents from last week.  The only explanation AAA has is that in the summer time the gas has an additive that supposedly makes gas cleaner that is not used in the winter.  WHO KNOWS.  Interestingly enough none of the candidates have addressed the cost of gas in any of the speeches.

The Goat Hill Tavern is a Costa Mesa icon.  The tavern is a no-frill sort of place with sawdust on the floor, 141 beers on tab and peanutes at the bar; yes you can throw the shells on the floor.  For those that are looking to have some fun , they have a pool table, shuffleboard and foosball.

It came to be the Goat Hill tavern in the early 80's and ...

For those that live in Southern California, you have probably come to know the story of Dane Williams.  He was a young man who worked for Hurley Sports.  Williams went to San Diego as part of a convention hosted by Hurley.  He was last seen by his co-workers at a bar and then found dead in an alleyway.

An autopsy has proven inconclusive regarding his death.  I never had the oppurtunity ...
