Question by McD: For People Who Live In Las Vegas…?
* IF YOU don’t want to read this whole thing I’d appreciate it if you could answer top 2 q’s.

Hi. I’m moving to Vegas and I’m a little worried about reviews I’ve read about apartment complexes. I heard Henderson/Green Valley were nice places to live, but some reviews say “gang related activities” or “Don’t live here if you like your car”.

I guess my questions are:

- Where are nice places to live/rent? (I’ve read about Summerlin/ Southern Hills/ Centennial Hills) but it’s hard to find apartment listings as they’re not actual cities.

- How long does it take to get to the strip from those areas?

- How frequent do cars get stolen? If I’m renting should I sell my car and by a cheaper one, just in case. It’s Dodge Durango 04′ nothing done to it?

- Have you heard of people getting car jacked? What neighborhoods should I stay away from?

- Any good advise to prevent break-ins?

Any recommendations to stay safe would be appreciated. Thank you very much.

Eco Friendly Gifts Green holiday gift ideas?

Question by Rusty S: Green holiday gift ideas?
My company typically gives “holiday” gifts for our top clients at year’s end. This year, we would like to give a green/eco-friendly gift. The only catch is that our budget is around $ 50/gift and we need to be able to put our logo on it. Any good sites out there that cater to this need?

Thanks!

Question by Stephanie Bonilla: What does the “The ballad of the green berets” mean?
I need an article that explains the the song the ballad of the green berets and the poem tired of the rain and pain by today.

Best answer:

Answer by Elizabeth
The song “Ballad of the Green Berets” is self explanatory.

Ballad of the Green Berets
(Barry Saddler)

First verse – (Explains what the Green Berets do.)
Fighting soldiers from the sky
Fearless men who jump and die,
Men who mean just what they say.
The brave men of the Green Beret.

First Chorus – (Explains how difficult it is to become a Green Beret, 3 out of 100 get to wear the Green Beret.)
Silver wings upon their chests,
These are men, America’s best.
100 men we’ll test today
And only three win the Green Beret.

Second verse – (Explains more of what the Green Berets do.)
Trained to live off nature’s land
Trained to combat hand to hand
Men who fight by night and day
Courage take from the Green Beret.

Third verse – (Explains what it’s like to wait at home and then to find out your loved one, in this case a husband and father, has died for a cause he believed in.)
Back at home a young wife waits
Her Green Beret has met his fate
He has died for those oppressed
Leaving her this last request:

Last chorus – (The dead soldier has a son and wants him to grow up to be a Green Beret like his Dad.)
Put silver wings on my son’s chest
Make him one of America’s best
He’ll be a man they’ll test one day
Have him win the Green Beret.
