Chipshot, If you're going to expect so much of others (WRT to grammar) you may first want to make sure your own ball isn't plugged in the sand.

"I could care less what the UK does..."

The phrase (with its normal meaning) isn't, "I could care less", it is, "I couldn't care less".
IOW, I could not care any less than I already do about what the UK does.

Grumpy today?

I accept the casual tone of posts in a place like this and understand that most people aren't careful about there spelling and grammer. There's no point in trying to "regulate". I was trying to point out the irony with some humor that chipshot would get, i.e. plugged ball in the sand. Talk about not catching the humor.

"A solid 8-iron"... Is that what wannabes try to do with a 9-iron?

I try to be subtle and intentionally commit two of the most common errors and people look for trouble instead of humor. Oh well.

Never mind...don't answer that. I'll check out another topic. Geek on.

The coolest thing about living in Orangevale is that it is cheap! I bought my house about a year ago and my payments are the same as rent would be (not too shabby for a 23 year old). I haven't seen any serious crime around here and the people seem to be pretty nice. I grew up in Folsom and I would still be more comfortable there but as I am just a waitress now I can't afford it lol.

Interesting discussion, even if I haven't lived there for 14 years now, the feel of the homes still seems pretty close to what I remember. Overall I liked OV because it was laid back and safe, but also close enough to businesses to not feel secluded (it was just like 3 miles every direction). I wasn't quite old enough to take the bus or go that many places by myself until the last year or so, so I can't totally comment there.

I lived in three different places in town as a kid - #1 was a midsized ranch house off Main Ave just down the street from the horseback riding stables (where it automatically blends into Sunset). Even though the bedrooms were kinda cramped, it was a comfortable place with a spaced out front area and in a safe neighborhood.

The other two were townhouses and I feel totally opposite about both. One was also on Main, further up between Madsion and Greenback. That was neat because it was in walking distance to fast food and stores. The unit itself was also small but comfortable, and at least in 1994 it was a friendly complex where the people were cool. The other one was near the border of Fair Oaks (on Beech Ave near Greenback). That did seem to be a slightly more "ghetto" neighborhood. The only thing I liked was being in walking distance to the middle school I went to, and being so close to the Cable Park center.

I'm less familar with anything north of Greenback (I don't think we had much reason to go up that way, at least not as often... probably because it's more rural), but I would agree anyone who wanted to space out a bit and buy some land, that would be an ideal area.

Personally, anyone who can own a home vs renting is smart....better to live under your own rules and not be at the whims of the landlord!
Americans, don't just come in one color or race.
