:slob: This is stimulating banter at its best. Snow is cold, here is why, the sun is hot, here is the proof. You're both right. Now clean up the spooge and move on.

Hey, I'm just saying when you say "cold winter" people think of Buffalo or Cleveland or the East Coast where you just hunker down, don't see the sun, and are miserable from November through April. :tup:

My best friend goes to Denver once every 3 months or so to visit his brother and he's always talking about how he experiences all 4 seasons in the 7 days that he usually stays there...except when he visits in July. |

This is anecdotal, but two of my neighbors have been laid off in the last two days (one male and one female), along with another male friend who lives about four miles away.
WTF? Just coincidence, I'm sure, but still. Arizona's not out of the woods by a long shot. --don |
That sucks. From what I've read/heard isn't AZ supposed to be one of the more worse off areas right now?
|
We don't have a white collar workforce. That's half the problem...
|
I've been laid off since May (second time in a row) from 2 separate school districts. I vowed NOT to return to K-12 education and apply in higher-ed. Countless positions without a single interview. I am at my wits end with this state and have been looking elsewhere from sometime. I am a 5th generation Arizonan and it's not an easy decision. I am tired of hearing how AZ is improving when that is not what I am witnessing.

Does anyone have a copy of Robert Melikian's Vanishing Phoenix? I'd love to borrow it if you do.
Looking at old pictures of the old Fox Theater makes me sick. |
Hey all the Grand Avenue Festival is tomorrow, more info here:
http://grandavephoenix.com/ They're doing 're-dapt' tours at 8, 9 and 10am. Ill be one of the tour guides on the 9am leg, and the forums own NIXPHX77 will be a guide on the 10am tour. Tickets are just $10, can be purchased at Kooky Krafts. There will be events all day, live music, performances, etc. They're also going to have some renderings or information from what I understand about the GARP (Grand Ave Rail Project). |
Change a subject a bit...
G Star Raw is opening a store in Scottsdale Fashion Square the first week of November, the first such store in the Southwest. I love their stuff but really wish they would have chosen downtown for the opening. Financially I'm sure it make a lot more sense to open in Scottsdale due to the demographics but it would have been awesome to see it open downtown, it's definitely a destination type store that people who know about the brand would drive to. |
Looking at the website, it looks like the new Affliction (g star raw) will fit in very well with the douchebag clubbers in old town.
|
Affliction? G Star Raw is nothing like Affliction, unless you're just saying it will get trendy like Affliction. I can't stand Affliction or the types of people that typically wear it.

Honestly, if you want to buy G-Star just go to Hub. In other news - Also went to Sidebar yesterday. I really like the place and the environment. Cool building, only wish it was closer to the light rail. I still need to go to visit CityScape at night. Probably take a trip during the pub crawl in a few weeks. |

Maybe it seems like it's too far because it blows. |
