Default Pengy is moving to Miami

I am going to transfer to the Alteon-Miami office sometime in January/2008.

The Alteon-Long Beach office will be closing the end of 2007.....

So, see all you East Coasters next year

Long Beach just won't be the same without you.

Will there be a goodbye party?

Welcome! If you need any advice on areas to live, good restaurants, grocery stores, you name it, I'd be glad to help.

It's not that bad down here. Or maybe I've just become used to the sound of Spanish?

It does feel that way sometimes. But I only notice it when I go out of town and come home. All of last week I was in Detroit and then Wilmington N.C. People actually said hello, stopped their cars to let you walk across the street, and had smiles on their faces while doing it. Down here drivers accelerate to try and hit you as you cross the street, and the only people smiling are the loony ecstasy addicts standing on the street corners of South Beach.

The only reason people stop to let you cross the street in Detroit is to...

A. Hit you with their car

B. Shoot you

C. Hit you with your car, then shoot you

You were not Detroit my friend, you were in a place called the burbs

Sorry to hear you're moving outta LA, Mike, I know you've enjoyed it there.

The only car that EVER stopped for me in Detroit was the police to tell me to get in the car because I was walking after midnight between the rencen and greektown. The morge is there because then you dont have to tranport the bodies too far.

Sorry to hear that the LGB Alteon office is closed. The meet we had there earlier this year was one of the best aviation experiences I've ever had, it's an awesome group of people you have working there. I'm sure things will work out well in Miami though, good luck!

Sometime next year, I will set up a meet & greet, similar to the one we had in Long Beach. Sim Rides, class room lectures, the works......

Yes, you will. Though I'm sure by that time you'll already be well acquainted with the locations of all the gay bars and bathhouses!
