Hold Your Nose, Nor’Town!

Hold your nose, North Las Vegas! We're going down!

No, not because of the usual stench circa Craig and Losse–man, that ain't the pigfarm, is it?

Nope. I mean: you'd better hold your nose because the BSS Nor'Town is agoin' down!

We learn today that Councilperson Anita Wood has told City Manager Gregory Rose to have his staff-folk start up some "critical needs" assessments.(VN)

I suggest it might just be quicker to pull out a pink highlighter and slap a spot on the foreheads of the underlings who can expect pink slips in the next year or so.

Councilguy Cherchio mentioned that maybe those assessments are coming a year too late. You know, back when the council was voting to sink millions into that new City Council Building.

Maybe they should dedicate the new building to all the staffers they'll be letting off. Put up a lovely plaque with all the names on it or something. Next to a big pigeon statue, maybe. Something with real, Nor'Town class.

Meanwhile, the Mayor continues her quixotic quest to lure California firms to our fair city. Say, how many have signed up, I wonder? (Sun)

Personally, I'm finding those ads by Swarzenegger pretty tempting. You know, the ones where the gube of California says: "California, find yourself here."

Wonder what Nor'Town's slogan should be?

  • North Las Vegas: find something really smelly here!
  • North Las Vegas: find a foreclosed home here!
  • North Las Vegas: find a pink slip here!
  • North Las Vegas: find a dead pigeon here!
  • Nor'Town: lose your will to live here!

Oh well, look at it this way. Our ghost town will make a wonderful exhibit in that new national monument. Another extinct creature, right next to the Mastodon bones.

Woah. Follow Nor'Town on Twitter. Sounds like a pigeon cooing.
