New to Fullerton and would love to meet people.

Hey friends! We’re getting closer to Election Day, and Shana and I are teaming up to knock on doors and talk with neighbors as we reach the last leg of the campaign.

We’re going to be joined by Rep. Derek Tran, Buena Park Mayor Connor Traut, and OCYD to push back against the big money that’s coming against us and finish strong.

Whether you’ve canvassed before or this is your first time, everyone’s welcome. It’s a great opportunity to meet some neighbors, get involved, and help out with the election.

Hope to see some of you out there! And as always, happy to answer any questions about my campaign or the issues facing Fullerton.

He called my cell phone. He started with the normal spiel and was surprised when I could name his donors and the exact amount they donated. I asked his opinion on some recent votes, his buddy Fred, and his plans to fix the roads.

The man made sure to tell me about five times that he was a banker, conveniently couldn't speak on Fred's decisions, and - once again - reminded me that he was a banker. He had zero tangible plan for how to fix the roads and couldn't name any particular votes Dr. Charles made that he didn't like, just that he didn't like her.

I came into the conversation curious and seeking his thoughts. In fact, on surface level, it was a fine conversation. Kind enough guy. I wanted to sit with it before I shared my thoughts. The more time I've sat with it though, the more I've realized how flaccid his understanding of our local situation was.

The man is good at fluffy talk, I'll give him that. Too bad he doesn't have a single opinion of his own.

Hi all! Has anyone spotted candy cigarettes in a local liquor store/discount store recently? I'm looking to bring a few "packs" to a book club meeting tonight.

TIA 🙂

Trying to watch MLB playoffs but my current digital antenna can’t pick up fox. Any recommendations for digital antenna given our area?

Stole our Amazon packages 30 minutes ago. Hopefully someone recognizes this guy. Him and his accomplice drive a white SUV… unfortunately can’t tell the make/model and ring didn’t catch the plate.

Besides haunted mazes or houses what Halloween things are you and your partner or friends doing in the area until Halloween?

Where are all the older women that are into younger men?

I have a drain line project that is a little more involved because there is no drain at garage and my place wasn't set up well to make anything easy. I've interviewed numerous plumbers and am left with such an uneasy feeling of the current state of plumbing industry in our area. Several of them have given me ideas that wouldn't pass code, I found out later. They have given me very disruptive solutions that would cost me a lot of money when I found out later there were easier ways. Most of them charge at lawyer rates per hour. I've been told by a plumbing company they charge $300 - 700 an hour depending on the work. I know there's overhead but this is getting ridiculous especially when some of the techs they send look young and sound inexperienced.

I watched a Youtube and learned to fix a toilet with an $11 part at my relative's because my usual service people were out of town. The other toilet which my plumber's tech had fixed earlier still had problems. The owner came out himself the 2nd time and replaced the same part I did - they charged $300 for the initial pathetic "repair". Should we start a plumbing school for homeowners to do easier fixes on their own?

Anyone know what days stores like target, Walmart, Barnes and nobles, etc restocks? I don’t mind waiting in line and unfortunately I am currently jobless so I have time.

Sigh, I haven’t collected pokemon cards in over 15yrs but I have a kid cousin who loves pokemon now. Would love to get him a 30th anniversary pack.

Would anyone like this Cutie? This sweet Kitten was rejected by its Mom (outdoor cat) at an apartment complex. People in the complex were feeding the Kitty but it’s not doing well outside. Seems the Apartment Manager won’t allow anyone to take it inside (threatening eviction).

I can’t take it because my doggo is really reactive to cats (not in a good way). Tried multiple Rescues but they are all full. Can anyone give this little Sweetie a home?

It’s a boy, appropriately 7 weeks old. Small adoption fee required.

Our great pet sitter, who we’d used for decades, moved away two years ago. We’ve tried a couple of new ones, but we haven’t really found the right replacement yet. Although we’d prefer someone with business insurance, at this point, we care most about length of experience with cats specifically, as well as relative distance to Fullerton. Any personal recommendations would be appreciated!
