Homebuilder halts construction

I wonder if this means they've suspended development of those town houses over on Duane and Fair Oaks (SerraWood I think it's called).  (Feb 6, 2009 | post #1)

Review: Ruby's Taqueria

This is one of the best taqueria's I've ever experienced. Try the "Vampiros " and the "Gorditas ". I can't wait to go back.  (Jan 22, 2009 | post #1)

US News

Dems, White House Agree To Auto Bailout

No, the bottom line is that continually designing cars nobody wants to buy puts US owned Automakers at a disadvantage. That's why people who can afford it will pay a 20%-40% premium for imports in the same car class. If the big 3 want a bailout, I think they should be talking with Chevron, Shell, and the like. They have the most to lose from seeing the gas-guzzler class implode, and what's a few billion to them?  (Dec 7, 2008 | post #413)

Future of Sunnyvale Auto Row is uncertain

But then the government would have one less infrastructure project to use our tax dollars on. Outrageous! :-)  (Dec 4, 2008 | post #2)
