The Ideal Wal-Mart Site

I know Wal-Mart and the city of Ontario is dogmatic that it will be on 5th and Mountain if we like it or not as what Lt.Governor Newsom made famous when he helped to inspire a TV ad for the Yes on 8 people.

I know that Ontario is not anti-Wal Mart like other cities in California, but I do support a Wal-Mart in the right parcel.

I am suggesting Inland Empire and Vineyard.

I have a snapshot of the parcel if anyone wants to take a look.

The Animals Need Your Help

Mercy’s K9 Rescue Center in Ontario is having financial difficulties and they would appreciate the support of the local community to help keep their land so they could keep their dogs together.

They are having their first fundraiser on June 4th at the Village Attic at 211 W First Street in Claremont from 1pm-7pm. This fun event will have hot dogs, popcorn, live music and some crafts. If you are looking for something fun to do, this may be something fun for a Saturday.

If you are not able to attend the fundraiser in Claremont, they would still appreciate your support and your occasional contributions would be very appreciated.

Rapture

A leading American televangelist has announced that May 21st is the day of the rapture. Basically the saved will be vanished from our society and the rest of us who are faced to live in this world would live until the world collapses. 90 year old founder of Family Radio, Harold Camping says that the rapture will begin at 6pm in each time zone.

However many Christian theologians have said that Harold’s argument is flawed. They are worried that if his argument fails and they don’t rebut his argument they will look like simpletons.

Anyways I am going to a Kylie Minogue concert on Friday and if the Rapture truly happens, it will be a great pre-rapture party.

Restaurant Review

This is something I traditionally do not do on my blog. However I feel like this should be a new irregular feature. I decided to go to CiCi’s Pizza Buffet in Chino Hills. CiCi’s is a pizza buffet chain with stores across the United States. Since my sister had a job interview nearby and I had my Sociology class in the neighborhood we decided to bundle all our trips and eat there as part of our day.

CiCi’s is regularly $7.28 a person plus tax for food and drink for adults. Compared to John’s Incredible Pizza this is a good deal. CiCi’s is more like a place for parents to bring their children to, but adults can still have a good meal. Right now at the time of writing there was a promotion for $3.99 plus $1.79 beverage from 11a-2p Monday thru Friday at the Chino Hills location.

Pizza was good, it was not like Round Table, but it was average. There are the usual staples such as salad, soup, pasta, over 8 types of pizza including a desert pizza with brownies and cinnamon rolls for desert.

The salads are standard fare, but I wish there was some hard boiled eggs and cheese to go with the salads like most buffet establishments.

And I wish there was milk to go with the desert items, even if customers have to pay $1 for a bottle. Also good for parents who do not want their kids to drink soda too.

For the price you can not go wrong, but my overall impression is for this establishment that I will not be a regular patron. However for an occasional visit its worthwhile.

San Bernardino County Animal Welfare Idea

I have a proposal, we should mention a worthy animal that could be adopted at the local shelters in San Bernardino County. Maybe we could have a widget for the supervisor’s websites that would encourage the constituents to adopt an animal from one of the shelters in the district.

I don’t expect Supervisor Ovitt or even Supervisor Rutherford-Lim to bring an animal to the meetings like how Supervisor Antonovich does for Los Angeles County, but bringing forth awareness of the pets people can adopt would be a nice idea.

Social Norms

Work occupied me, I had barely any time to do my project. Sadly most of my ideas for Sociology project would involve me getting beat up or arrested. Personally I would of wanted a paper where I would just write on my respective topic since the paper was due during Easter peak season.

Having only one class this semester makes it hard for me to do something like applaud an instructor for their lesson like they are a concert pianist.

I might have to wear my clothes backwards to 7-11 and see how things go.

Blue on Blue

It is disgusting at the behavior of some idiots who attend games at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles. We are not football hooligans, we are better than this as supporters of the Los Angeles Dodgers.

We are not gang members where if you don’t wear the right colors you have the privilege of being beaten senseless. I know that the Dodgers versus Giants rivalry has even been violent even on the baseball diamond where a Giants pitcher caused a bloody brawl back in 1965 and a Giants fan ended up causing a brawl in 1981 where a Dodgers player threw his baseball helmet at the fan due to being taunted.

Southern Californians should united in support of the Giants fan who ended up getting violently beaten by two miscreants. Even if it is three or four dollars to the fund, feel free to help donate to the family who is suffering the after effects of the beating. Even if Bryan Stow recovers from the beating, there will be months or a few years before he can get back on the job and his family deserves some nominal fiscal support and goodwill from the people of our communities to get through with these times.

If you would like to donate visit here for the details.

Norma Torres District Office Moved to Chino

Norma decided to save the tax payers of our state money by moving her district office to Chino. So any phone number you might have had for her district office has changed to reflect her new district office for Assembly District 61.

13160 7th Street
Chino, CA 91710

Her relocation helped save taxpayers 30% of what the state paid for her former office on Euclid Avenue.

(909) 902-9606 is her new office phone number.
