I and a number of posters here find the situations in Las Vegas quite a compatible one. It is not better than other big cities. It is very much the same. The nice suburbs of every big American city are pretty close to interchangable.
We are sorry your situation came out badly. But it was not the fault of Las Vegas. You may have made some bad choices or you may simply have been unlucky. No way to tell. And your return south may be great or you may run into the anguish that often afflicts those who try to go back....and find out that what they remember is no longer there.

You are in this message board way too deep. Yeah, I thought your opening dialog about Jena and the kkk was suspect. Just a lead-in to discuss you, and rehash your tales of woe. Probably for the 1000th time hoping MrVegas might sympathize that your established pillars of high society would not include you. Not interested.

"Yup...fraid so" otherwise language will revert to the lowest common denominator. I decline to be bound by the exigencies of text messaging or the need to illustrate my intended message with emoticons. If you can't read the nuances of the language...well you can't read the nuances of the language.

Correct. Faze is the word I was shooting for.
Thanx for the correction.
