Isn't Pahrump home of a couple famous brothels?

There is so much wrong with this statement one does not know where to begin. Hey Al Rotters what part of ILLEGAL do you not understand?

I don't know about famous, they were the destination of last resort for some miners I worked with at the NTS.

Parumph was the setting of last week's episode of Studio 60. John Goodman was the mayor. It was lousy.

Fully disagree with the flag part...but not this part:

The meeting also pushed through measures to deny services to illegal immigrants and make English the official language in Pahrump

The People should be able to wave whatever flag they choose....and I'll have and will continue to defend their right to do so.

Go Pahrump! Things like this are why I still have a soft spot in my heart for the Silver State. Battle Borne!

Well...If it is...

They'll have to fly the good ole' Red, White and Blue, to stay out of a certain aspect of legal scrutiny...

John Goodman was a judge. And he was pretty funny.
