More than anything, I traveled all over L.A. God, I love that city. I have a lot a pictures. I'll post some in my journal later on. Plus, I'll post one of my new hairdo in my gallery.

I plan on moving back to L.A. no later than August 1st of next year.

welcome back amigo.

DOMS · 07-09-2007, 11:43 AM

Thanks, fufu. It's good to be back.

It's funny, the only things I missed about computers was anime, my stocks/options program, and IM.

The rest amounts to jack squat.

Oh, and I saw a funny shirt for sale at Venice: "There's too much blood in my alcohol system."

I'm sitting in a meeting, bored to tears, and it's going to last another hour at least. We've already been here for over an hour and a half. My presentation was approximately 1 minute. People are sitting here watching me type and I'm sure they think that I'm working.

Get back to work!

That would be a good shirt for when I go to Vegas

Glad to see your back!

If only they knew you were busy doing "crap".

Are you moving to Vegas or just visiting? I lived there for a year and a half.

Make sure to hit the Rio Buffet (at the Rio hotel) and the Guadalajara (at Boulder Station) while you're there.

If you move to Vegas, move to the far south (Henderson), up on Sunrise Hill (the mountain to the East), or the far North West (Summerland). Every other place is either like Mexico or the worst parts of L.A.

One of the really nice things about living in Vegas is that you have easy access to SoCal.

Oh, and wait for the bottom to drop out of the housing market first. The prices in Vegas are very overinflated. Houses that sold in 2000 for $150,000 are now selling for around $400,000.

Thanks for the info - yeah, I would wait until the prices are down - I work in the RE business, so that is definintely key. Our area is getting that way also, our city is limited as far as boundaries, so people are calling us the next Lake Tahoe... it's getting that way already...

DOMS · 07-10-2007, 09:22 AM

I don't follow the RE sector too closely, I only do it in very general terms for my options trading. What happened to Lake Tahoe?

katt · 07-10-2007, 09:27 AM

Its just the same scenario.. small town, bordered by mountains, not alot of room to expand, so they start building condos and inflating prices, attracting the "wealthier" people that want seclusion, privacy, etc... blah, blah, blah,

That's pretty much where we're at right now here... new condo's just went in - on the golf course & lake... starting price at 4 mil,,, and that's unfinished.

DOMS · 07-10-2007, 09:28 AM

4 million? That's nuts! I can buy a brand new (still under construction) condo in downtown Burbank, California for around 1 million.

When the bottom falls out of the market, places like Lake Tahoe (and the place you mentioned) are going to take a bath.

katt · 07-10-2007, 09:35 AM

Exactly! And when that happens the locals can afford to live there again

DOMS · 07-10-2007, 09:37 AM

I hadn't even considered that! Not being able to afford to live in your hometown. That's a pretty messed up thought.

Having said that, I need to up my income even more before I can move back to L.A.

DOMS · 07-10-2007, 10:11 AM

On the subject of the housing market, I received this via AP:

"Still, the Home Depot chain and top U.S. builder D.R. Horton aren't helping by issuing dismal outlooks as a result of the deteriorating housing market."

Triple Threat · 07-18-2007, 10:14 AM

I recently moved into another office at work. Coincidentally, another guy also just moved into the office next to mine. Today he has walked into my office 3 times, thinking it was his. There are numbers on the wall next to the door. How many times will this asshat walk into my office thinking it is his? I'm tempted to ask him if he can read.

This thread is great. If you want to say something, but don't think it's worthy of its own thread, you can post it here. That DOMS guy is a genius!

It is CRAP how the Jays lost last night.

Play so well for 8 innings then just a complete mental meltdown.

If I were an unbiased sports fan, I would tend to agree with you, but since I root for the Yankees, I think it was great.
