For the record... when I end up driving to the SE metro at night I generally 'deadhead' to Talking Stick. I have no desire to work the (drunk) scene in Tempe at night. During the day I'll accept a couple of trips nearby (to see if I end up back in Scottsdale). I have now learned where Queen Creek is... freaking long drive even from the airport.
When I end up somewhere in Phoenix I'll stay and play. For example, I picked up three nice young Hispanics who worked at Tutti Santi by Nina (64th and Greenway) to a mobile home park along Cave Creek. I've ended up getting trips in Sunnyslope, Metro Center and 19th to 27th avenues between Pinnacle Peak and Happy Valley areas and never had any problems. A couple of times, I've picked up and loaded my CR-V with groceries for the trip home and I'm happy to serve this need.
On St Patrick's Day I picked up near 19th ave and Cactus a couple of guys all decked out in green hats etc and dropped at a shopping area near Bell Rd and 35th(?) ave where there was a tent set up in the parking area with live band etc. I was very jealous but my younger days are well behind me.
Couple of trips later I ended up driving from near Cave Creek Rd and Rose Garden to (OTS) or Old Town. Never know where I'm going but I go.

Honestly, I don't like Sal or his positions and antics in the slightest but Prop 104 failed miserably to take care of Job One. That has nothing to do with Sal.
