OT: Request for backup

I realize I just got 'in', and it's probably too early to ask for anything,
but necessity is the mother of invention...

I just got an email and talked to a company that's fairly close by that is
looking for a web developer that matches my qualifications.

My problem is, I have no transportation to get to the interview, which is
actually farther away than the job.

I don't know many people around here, and the people I'm staying with aren't
willing or are unable (can't tell) to help.

Are there any MCNGP members in the Southern California area who might be
able to help me with a ride or figure out some form of transportation?

It's 100 miles roundtrip. I'm in Riverside, CA. Free website? Free agent
character? Anything except ellicit acts on farm animals (this includes
humans).

Just asking.

There are a number of MCNGPs in California, but off the top of my head, I
don't know exactly where. If I was among them, I'd help out, but unless your
interview is 3000 miles to the east, I'm afraid I can't. Good luck with the
interview, though. (Assuming you get there)

While I appreciate the sentiment, the Constitution of the United States

Besides, given that I am a fiscal moderate who belives in states rights,
drug leagalization, personal liberaties, invididual responsibilities,
free markets, I am not really going to get too many votes.

Sacramento.

I used to live in SoCal but that's not much help now is it?


Although near Riverside in Corona is an excellent paintball field by the
name of SatCong Village. I highly recommend it.

Aint I the helpful one?

S'ok. I appreciate the offer.

We have a commuter train out here, I don't know what it's called or if it
will take me where I need to go. If I can find that out, it may just be a
matter of a few bucks to hop on the thing.

Probably not. That's a shame too.

Metrolink? That's the one I rode from LA to Santa Clarita.
