Veterans Cemetery coming to Irvine

NEW -> Contingent Buyer Assistance Program
Yaliu, as much as I give you a hard time about disrespecting the veterans and their families to put your needs first while enjoying the fruits of their labor, I'm going to try and cheer you up a little. I'm not one of those eternally optimistic people but that said, what will probably happen if you find that no Chinese person and not a single FCB is interested in buying your house in the future is that a financed buyer will come in, making you an even higher offer. Oh, nooo. More money. Cash buyers are notorious for expecting concessions and a discount because their offer is strong. They throw that crown on and let everybody know who's boss. However, the highest and most cooperative offers I've ever had selling a home were actually financed buyers. In Irvine, especially, I'm sure they would appreciate being given a chance. So, sell your home to one of them. I wouldn't lose any sleep over it. As Bones said, it only takes 1 buyer to close the deal.

It only takes one offer, but multiples offers are better.  ;)
 
I am correcting this Irvine hater 1000th time. Yaliu is not disrepecting the veterans, he is against the cemetery. any kind of cemetery in general.

Wow. You seem really tense again today. I had no idea being a receptionist at a patent attorney's office was so stressful.  :( Sorry, I hope you feel better soon.

:o Lol. You know you've been on T.I. too long when...

Many Mexicans have native American ancestors.  Native Americans came to America from Asia via the the Bering land bridge during periods in the past when the level of the Bering Sea was low enough that Asia and America were connected by dry land.  Therefore, Qwerty may, in fact, be Asian.

I don't want to offend my fellow asian TI members but why the heck do you guys believe in feng shui? You guys know its all bullshit right? You guys are supposed to be the smart minority.  You guys disappoint me :-(

And the whole number four thing is that feng shui as well or some other stupid belief?

The number thing is more of superstition but the whole feng shui thing in a way is kind of too. 

Just like most of superstition stuff, even if you don't believe in them but once you knew about it, it kind of affect you in certain way. 

Just like walking under a ladder.  If no one told you it's a bad luck, you have no problem walking under a ladder.  But once someone told you about it, then it's like a curse, you'll try to avoid walk under a ladder as much as you can for rest of your life.

yaliu,
you can try to kill the cemetery by arguing that we are in a drought; no need to build new cemeteries and golf courses.

no golf course?  Now i'm in a pickle. 
 
you cannot have it both ways. use drought against cemetery but still want golf course built

I have a solution: exclusive tennis courts (tennis club)
This will drive up the price of houses.

Can you guys think of something else in life that people regularly do in hopes to making one's life better based on some type of personal belief?

Feng shui, superstition, and ideal from above are all very similar. 
 
So we're just in a waiting game now for Calvet?  Here are the slides from last year, note the 5point rebuttal on 7-11-14 (http://www.cityofirvine.org/council/comms/ad_hoc_state_veterans_cemetery_committee/agenda.asp).  It suggested alternative sites (Tustin Legacy?) and also utilizing the Cultural Terrace or the 100 acre county land that is currently being pursued for commercial use (http://www.talkirvine.com/index.php/topic,12999.0.html).  The lawyer letter summarizes a time frame:

So the cemetery can only be developed after 12/27/17 and only if the golf course is 'finished'.  What I can interpret is that 5point is trying to flex some muscle and push the development of the cemetery to the Cultural Terrace?  Or maybe they can just never finish the golf course to prevent cemetery development?

Did Yaliu have anything to do with this?
