Default Viva Las Vegas!

Well, I'm no longer gna_in_lgb as I've made the move to North Las Vegas and can call VGT my local airport now.

So far I like it here; there's less traffic than L.A., I almost tripled my living space for the same $ and haven't spent more than 45 minutes on the freeway even in the middle of the day driving across town. I already miss the ocean though...

Anyway, happy to be here and since I live here now, I'll really have no excuse not to make NJC '08!

ps...anyone have a contact at Nellis looking for someone with a clearance?

So, you changing your name to gna_in_vgt now? I'm glad to hear the move went well and that you're getting more bang for your buck.
Yup, you really have NO excuse not to be at NJC '08...Hopefully, I can make it as well!
Hey, what were you referring to in your comment to Pengy about the "break in and shooting?" I must have missed something.

Thanks, P. Would be great to see you out here for NJC 08. Just bring extra bail money.

There was a shooting down the road from my old condo a few weeks ago and very close to Pengy's place.

Oh, sorry to hear about that shooting.
"Bring extra bail money.." For who---you? Why doesn't anyone believe I'm quiet?
