Local HD Pawn Shop Service Closing

I vote we not call Pawn Shops servants. Ya speakin’ my language?

Because I’ve played guitar and punished guitars, many babe, through the years, roughly age 4 to current 56, I vote we not call Pawn Shops servants.

Ya speakin’ my language? No blood to suck anymore El Wimpo (No offense to the owners 59 years of “service.”) Example … Vignette: Purchased a telecaster in Santa Ana, made records, played countless frat houses yadda yadda in my early 20’s. Pawned it for $23 in Fullerton needing money when I went back to college. Hey Wimpeys, sail away bro, thanks for ripping off needy guitarists to serve yourself. Now, I am calling out anyone to do a feature (I’ll let you) that reads “Adelanto Teacher K12/VVC Professor, closes after 32 years of servihg YOUR DAMN kids. But hey this is the rag of one hack and interns, the “High Desert Daily Depressed” as MANY fondly call it. Google me for most curreny contact info and my service rate for the interview. Enjoy your beach retirement Wimpeys. No thank you for “shit, nada.” But kudos on putting the desperate out of your mind for 40 years*, on the beach. We wont cry.
