Default Mr. Pig goes to Playa
Well let’s start with, I don’t travel much. I work all the time and have become quite successful at what I do. I am not the most popular person, as my work has the tendency to disrupt many people’s lives. Sometimes it’s better to stay within the guard of my security detachment, then to be out and about amongst the minions. Here is a picture of me and one of me at work.





As a distraction, I stumbled upon this board and have decided to take some time off and enjoy some of life… that and my secretary said something about file copies and calling the FEDS if I didn’t take a vacation and get off her back, so… PLAYA HERE I COME!

I have been “lurking” for some time now and have learned quite a lot about how the other half lives and it intrigues me. So I have decided to vacation solo, no security, no 5 star accommodations, no real plan, I am just going to wing it. Taco carts, beer buckets and Pizza Pazza here I come. I will try to write a trip report (or make my secretary do it) when I complete my journey…

Well, you are certainly a cute little fella. Welcome.
So when are you leaving for Playa?

Default Neighbors?
Mr Pig:
I think we are working neighbors! If you work in the tallest building in downtown Los Angeles, it must be the U.S. Bank Building? If so, I am down the street at City National Bank When will you be in Playa? We will be there on 6/25.

A little birdie told me about this place, I kind of like here but you people are waaaay too nice, even Stogey.

I am leaving for Playa tomorrow and return on the 26th, at least that what my secretary tells me.

Yes, your building seems to block my view of Catalina Island on a clear day. I think it is on my buy list and remove list, I'll have to check.

Yes, I (or my alter ego) first met you and Slim in '05 at a peep meet in May and then you again in '06.

The gold was in the tortilla toss and the bronze in the tequila relay
