"We came here shopping for kids clothes (my nieces, don't worry boys, I am still available :P) and it was a complete loss. Couldn't find the stores, and the limited number that they did have (from the…" - JT

"I really like this place due to the convenience of the location to where my office is. It can get really crowded on Thursdays now (I guess they have a local musical duo that people are really…" - JT

"Happy Hours on Tuesdays are SUPER cheap. Decent apps, like their sake infused wine (but they REALLY make the sake weak - we split three bottles and didn't feel it and I'm 1/2 Asian but 100% prone to…" - JT

"Had the BEST experience getting my brand spanking new Honda this past weekend (a fully loaded Fit - with Navigation system and Bluetooth and alloy rims) JoJo Bayas and Ziggy were the BEST. They were…" - JT

"Really affordable and awesome views of the river! Stayed the weekend here while visiting some friends, the location was great, and just a cab ride away from all the places I wanted to visit. The…" - JT

"From the looks of the place, my expectations were exorbitantly high... I had a yerba matte latte with soy... the soy was way too hot and it was not even close to par with other lattes I have had at…" - JT

"Not a big fan of Pizza Hut in general - and this place wasn't quite up to par with even the Pizza Huts I have had in years past. Pass if you are REALLY hungry... takes forever to get any order done." - JT

"Love this place! One of the cutest areas in Boston/Cambridge area. Really reminds me of the type of picturesque places you could see in SF or Austin or just any town with characters. The signs and…" - JT

"I was killing time on a late Sunday morning and we were looking for a place to score some super spicy Bloody Marys with bartenders with a little gusto. We got more than our money's worth at this…" - JT

"Came here for their Sunday brunch and was not impressed. The place is clean, but drab, doesn't give off the high end modern type of decor or atmosphere they were probably going for. As for Brunch, no…" - JT

"Went here after my first Celtics game. As an out-of-towner I was pleasantly surprised. I did not expect any place to be so lively with a (dare I say it?) really awesome cover band and packed to the…" - JT

On one of my recent treks along the bike path of the LA River, something happened to me that is an all-too familiar occurrence with other runners: narrowly escaped being run over by a disgruntled cyclist who later demanded I step off the path. Really? What happened to sharing the road? Especially if the cyclists are travelling in pairs (which happened to be the case that day). Needless to say, much like driving in Los Angeles the best offense is having a good defense. To help remind everyone what to be aware of while on the road, I looked up common safety rules in various running situations I thought would be helpful to share… Here are six rules that stood out to me as absolute musts: Run against traffic – Street running. This was also a mandatory safety rule during the Ragnar open road relay (http://www.ragnarrelay.com). You want to make sure that you are able to clearly see traffic coming towards you which will prevent any sneaky cars hit you from behind. No headphones – Street... - JT

"One word: dark. If you are ugly and are going on a blind date - this is the place to go. I mean, the ambiance is OK but the service is a bit on the slow side and I wasn't too impressed with the happy…" - JT

"I don't know how I always end up going here on the weekends... getting to Corona Del Mar from Irvine is a major thorn in my side... especially on a Friday after work... especially if you commute from…" - JT

"Oh Joxer, you came along with your divey-ness, history, and greasy bar food and it was love at first sight! I went here with co-workers on a holiday half day and had a blast. The male to female ratio…" - JT

"This place was empty (which is partly why we went there) for a happy hour time. We were headed to the Staples Center for a concert (Watch the Throne Tour in case you are wondering...) Took too long…" - JT

"You know that you're in a hipster bar when the graffiti has tumblr urls... This place is also proof that there are hipsters in Orange County. Great happy hour cocktail menu (note: you have to go…" - JT

"This place on a Friday night is interesting as ALL heck (pardon the French)... I came here with a bunch of co-workers and I mean it looked like everyone was on the prowl!!! If you're looking for a…" - JT

"Went here for Happy Hour with one of my friends... the menu looked great and they had an assortment of cocktails... but the place was a bit too crowded (it was an early Friday evening at the…" - JT

"One of my favorite restaurants at the Spectrum. HANDS DOWN. Love the salads, love the cocktails, love the high table seating! It's not too hard to get seating here even when it's busy... as far as…" - JT

"Hands down best Mexican food I've ever had in Boston (and it was STILL good)... well Mexican inspired really... The avocado fries are to die for. The margaritas will have more yummy tequila to shake…" - JT

"I want to give this hotel higher reviews. We got a great deal for about 90 bucks a night along with a free upgrade. But the lack of free wi-fi - I mean how could you not have free wi-fi? For the…" - JT

"Love the food here despite the fact that I'm not too big on American bistro dining. My company has had a lot of the day one lunches here as well as quarterly events. Like the dark mahogany feel of the…" - JT

"Stayed here overnight for my company's holiday party and felt like I was literally on vacation without being too far from home. The beach by the resort is amazing, the rooms extremely comfortable and…" - JT

"Very trendy ambiance. Dropped in here for lunch when I was recovering from food poisoning and had their French onion soup. Really hit the spot and their service was good. Another added plus, not a…" - JT
