Pahrump

What can we say about Pahrump, Nevada? It's our new home town and the town we love to heckle! But if any out-of-towners say anything bad about it, watch out! We have beautiful mountains, lovely natural desert, a rural population.
We also have the hordes of left-wingers moving in from the Peoples Republic of California who want to change this into a carbon copy of their old state. Someone needs to build a wall around the borders of Nevada and make everyone take a test before they are allowed to move here. All liberals keep out!!
The town is not without it's problems, of course. It's the meth lab capital of southern Nevada because of the wind, we have a lot of wind! It blows the fumes of cooking it up away so no one can smell it or so we've been told. I guess that's true since a house two houses down got busted late one night and we never suspected a thing!
And then there is the town council...... were do I start? Some of them are fine but some need to have their heads examined because there has to be some reason for the idiotic laws and amendments they come up with. Some are just in it for the money they can fleece people out of and some, I'm sure, are in it to actually do something productive.
We love that the south end of town is home to the famous Chicken Ranch brothel and that they are legal here as well as opening carrying fire arms, concealed weapons permits and the sale of fireworks year round. Every year the local fire department throughs a Halloween Haunt! This will be the 28th year. You gotta love it for that if nothing else!
It's an inexpensive place to live, mostly retirees and we even have a Wal-mart that opened a year ago.
