I used to ride with my brother in law when he drove to El Paso for work, and we had guys come up to us at the Truck Stops and offer to take us to Mexico for Mexican prostitutes. There's always that. Or the donkey show of course.

Desert Demonz is closed, the local f-body club kind of fizzled out, the track won't be open while you're here, Jags sucks now since they implemented that six foot law, and 90% of the hooters girls are ugly. Car scene is mostly imports

Only thing keeping me and my wife here are our families. But if ******* sucks here.

You can go check out the tower I designed


Man, they messed up my old website, lol. Anyhow, here's the main url & the URL to the tower I designed back when I worked there. Supposedly you can take a cable tram car across to the mountain it's on & it has some lookout point or something. I had to man the office when they were erecting the tower so I didn't get to go see it in person Kinda bummed me out, months of 6-7 days weeks working on that damn thing & I didn't get to go see it go up.

Jags, I have family in El Paso, well about 10 mins from there and me and mycousins usually hit that place up on every one of my visits There was a girl there last time named Paris and well, I have 3 less buttons on one of my Ralph Lauren dress shirts, but I'm not mad

Go across and get some 25 cent crown and cokes. Just dont get them with ice. I had a pretty good time when I went. Not much to see or do and if you go across the border and ask to find a pool hall, you will definitely be going to a hooker house.

Yeah there's lots of places to go across the border but you have to have somebody that lives there and knows their way around. And don't forget your birth certificate if not you're not coming back lol
