This video was shot in 2001. It's nothing to write home about just a short drive from the UNLV area to the Sunrise mountain area and back again. I think I went to Greg Telles' old house off Owens Ave. There aren't many people I know in that neighborhood anymore. Greg Stokey being the only one to come to mind. Best wishes to Stokey. Does Larry Jones live on Linn Lane now? That's a rumor I heard.
Ten years ago they put a wall up on Hollywood Ave which completely blocks your view of the city as you're headed down Hollywood. Typical. This video shows a portion of the view we all enjoyed before the wall went up.
It also shows a small bit of the Sir Patrick house I lived in near the airport. The airport bought the house we were renting and gave us $8,000 each to move away. Yeah. That was 2002. They tore down the whole neighborhood and didn't even have the decency to put up a parking lot. Not that I'm complaining. I wish a couple of grand would fall in my lap again. Come to think of it I'll probably play the lottery again this week.

Not much else to add here. This video is a mix of stop motion and live action. It's longer than it probably should be and the sound is awful but who gives a shit? Every picture tells a story. Here's a million stories coming from the Naked City.
