    Well Long Beach fans-it's all over

    Police just showed up in Long Beach and notified all bars to shut down and gave the owners 24 hours to move all their stuff out. Total chaos at the moment. Bulldozers are going to show up tomorrow. The end of an era. No one is sure if this will effect Crystal's. Police will not even let you drive through the area.

    I guess the Bar owners must have the same lawyer as the shanytown people across from the Palace. Atleast they get 24 hours. Not 1.

    It's shame now because whenever I go with people to Crystals I would hang out across the street refusing to even pay the inflated prices for a beer in Crystals!

    Carman I did a couple of trips ago lives there and so does her sister. She will have to find a new home.

    I guess Haitian Shantytowns don't fit into the new DR image they want. As well I guess the Malecon and beach work being done costs money and they want a new POP.

    COP = Colombian Peso is the Columbian currency Averages about 2600 COP to 1 USD


    Wherever I May Roam

    And the road becomes my bride
    I have stripped of all but pride
    So in her I do confide
    And she keeps me satisfied
    Gives me all I need

    And with dust in throat I crave
    Only knowledge will I save
    To the game you stay a slave

    Roamer, wanderer
    Nomad, vagabond
    Call me what you will

    But I'll take my time anywhere
    Free to speak my mind anywhere
    And I'll redefine anywhere

    Anywhere I may roam
    Where I lay my head is home

    H.C.I.S.O.C.

    I read on Dr1 if they were made of wood, they were knocked down today. If Cinderblock, it will be Friday. Crystals could be gone too.
