Is this an April Fools joke or what? I can imagine people will be in line for this if it is real.

Is this for all stores or only the one in Westchester? The description made it seem like the scooter was only for Westchester and the iPhone is at all stores.

Aug 03, 07 - 04:15 pm Comment from: Masa

LOL, Boomer Sooner. You owe me a new keyboard. A Macally IceKey, to be precise.

Aug 03, 07 - 07:39 pm Comment from: Twisted Mac Freak

From the press release:
"Invitees include Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa, and Tyra Banks."

To entertain the crowd this threesome will ad lib several scenes from the 1976 classic, "Mother, Jugs and Speed." Bring the kids.

to Rene:

Only for people who are afraid of black people. One's already posted their thoughts.

It's in east part of Westchester near LAX. Some parts are less safe, but overall it's OK. LMU is in Westchester.

MDN word: "Local" as in Local would know this.

Aug 04, 07 - 12:04 am Comment from: the other Mark

Oh, and yes I agree people will get hurt over this. I will NOT be there as much as I like the good deal.

Aug 04, 07 - 04:28 pm Comment from: Rene

@ Terry in El Paso

Hehe...I grew up in NYC, I've been in many areas that most people would never think of taking a stroll in and I've never had a problem.

New to LA and still have yet to explore and know first hand the rest of the surrounding area. I rep Old Town Pasadena baby! Gangster-Gangster! lol

How about house and land packages for 99c? Id buy that for a dollar.

Aug 05, 07 - 09:02 am Comment from: Katrina

@ Henry...

They did that already in post-Katrina New Orleans. Except it was the real-estate developers who bought house and land for 99¢; a situationn commonly refered to as "land grabbing".
