As you know from my last postings, my car was in the shop all last week. Monday through Thursday I drove a puke yellow Hyundai Elantra everywhere. On Thursday Amy picked me up from work and concurrently met with Dr. Veis (the president of ATG … where I work) for a TMJ consultation. He determined […]
california real estate market
here is how bad the California real estate market is: 400 miles from Los Angeles and 100 miles from San Francisco you can get your little girl a play-house for the “steal” of 235k. And it comes with a plot of land the size of a two-car garage, yay! The reason California has the most […]
