Southern California's reputation for shallow lives will be enhanced this summer by the Fox Reality Channel. Go Go Luckey Productions (producer of Laguna Beach on MTV) says it plans to place private "confessional booths" in several So Cal bars including the lovely Mosun in Laguna Beach, Anaheim's J.C. Fandango (near Cal State Fullerton) and Hollywood's Cabana Bar.
Club goers--intoxicated? high? just out of jail or fresh from plastic surgery?--will be encouraged to spill their beans to a Fox cam
As of today, it’s only 85 days until college basketball starts…not that anyone is counting, ahem. But in case you are, rejoice! The inaugural Anaheim Classic college basketball tournament is set for November 22, 23, and 25 of this year.
Twelve games of bracketed, idiosyncratic collegiate ball will be hosted by the Anaheim Convention Center, with eight teams from all over the country. University of California, Irvine will be the sole Big West representative; CSU Fullerton is set for next yea
Want to start a jihad against jihadis? You'll get your chance this October, when the David Horowitz Freedom Center plans to organize "the biggest conservative campus protest ever" with something called Islamo-Facism Awareness Week in college campuses across America. It didn't surprise us that UC Irvine is amongst the universities that will host the event, due to the campus' wacky Muslims (read Reut Cohen's fascinating blog for more details), but Cal State Fullerton and Santa Ana College?

Late last week, Cal State Fullerton issued a survey to gauge student interest in the school reinstating its laughable football squad, which disbanded in 1992 to a massive yawn from Orange County. Even more hilarious is the website, Bring Back Titan Football, which really believes interest in the sport at Cal State Fullerton is so prevalent that they're trying to mobilize alumni and students to pressure administrators into spending millions for a squad that probably won't compete above Division I

I have so many restaurants waiting for SAFII reviews that sometimes I lag and get beat. That's what happened this Thursday, when the Orange County Register gave a thumb's-up to Matador Cantina in Fullerton. I visited about a month and a half ago, and don't necessarily disagree with writer Lori Basheda's review (although her use of mock Spanish in writing that "the queso was gone-o" was weak and no doubt red meat to the Reg's Know Nothing readers). Indeed, it seems that, judging by her desc

Sunday night, 60 Minutes replayed "DWI: Was It Murder?" Reporter Bob Simon interviewed a prosecutor who pursues murder charges against drunken drivers whose traffic collisions result in deaths of people in the other vehicles. Nassau County, New York, district attorney Kathleen Rice's first successful prosecution against just such a drunken driver resulted in a second-degree murder conviction and sentence of 18 years to life in prison against a 24-year-old insurance salesm
