Man, I don't know. Most of Nevada looks like the moon. Vegas looks unrecognizable to me anymore, kind of like Disneyland.

They don't. They just assume that current state tax revenue will grow. As soon as it goes flat or decreases the state can't pay its bills. Thank God for Prop. 13 which limits increases on property tax to 1% per year. If not for that we would be getting raped out here. Instead they have to...

lol, you referring to Rome? Well, they didn't have thermonuclear weapons. When the visigoths come to the door of the U.S. we'll nuke 'em. :D

Yep, Prius drivers think they are pretty fucking smart. The look on their faces is something to behold. Personally, I would love to get that kind of mileage. Life is way too short to drive a Prius though. Just a tad too retarded looking.
