National Anthem plus BLT?

Last week my sister and I met for lunch in a restaurant in Rainbow, CA. At noon, they played the national anthem on the couple of TVs they have, and the entire restaurant stood and faced their flag. I would be interested to hear your thoughts……..

Water bill

Just got my water bill and it’s $379! I live in a 2 bed 2 bath with washer and dryer. Does that seem normal? 😵‍💫 I swear we don’t even use the water that much. I do have a water filter for drinking tap water

looking for part time job

Hello everyone, I am a 19yo CC student desperately looking for a part time job. I have good availability and transportation means, and experience working with cash registers, customers, stocking items, etc but I am also able to learn about anything else. I applied to a lot of places like Chipotle, Ralphs, and more but I keep getting rejected… Is there anyone able to help? I feel so defeated and frustrated because I’ve been wanting to save up for a car for months now, but no matter who I call it seems positions are always full or they’re just not hiring 😔

Escondido approves ground lease for Costco at North County Mall

The Escondido City Council has unanimously approved a ground lease that could allow Costco to redevelop the former Sears site at the North County Mall.

The vote does not approve the actual development project, but it gives Costco a pathway to secure site control and begin environmental reviews, traffic studies and the city's entitlement process.

City officials estimate the retailer could generate more than $2 million annually in sales tax revenue and create more than 300 jobs. They also believe increased customer traffic could benefit other businesses throughout the mall.

Several council members expressed enthusiasm about the project, though some questioned whether the city negotiated sufficient lease revenue.

The proposal remains subject to future approvals by the Planning Commission and the City Council before construction can begin.

Want to try something life-changing? Hidden City Roller Derby, North Country and Oceanside's local Roller Derby League for almost 20 years is hosting our Fall new skater orientation Sunday, August 30th at 5:00 PM at the MLK Park Roller Rink!

No experience required, even if you have never skated, we will teach you how. We even have some loaner gear for the first couple of weeks.

Come to our orientation where we will explain the gear, how our new skater program works, and how you can join this incredible community. Our spring camp was an absolute blast with an amazing group of new skaters. If you were on the fence then, don't miss another opportunity.

Plus, stay after orientation to watch our first practice after our August break to see what derby is all about!

Come roll with us! 🛼🛼🛼HCRD Por Vida!

Holy crap

I just read the staff bios for the city council members and holy freaking shit, I did not realize what a conservative town I lived in. Everyone but Miss Martinez who isn't seeking re-election btw :( ...is a freaking cop or a pastor or a maga freak. I'm pretty sure the two pastors used AI for their bios. Miss Martinez is the only one that lived here her whole life practically. What a scary future.
