Thumbs up

The way Ben drives Fashion Island may be 30 minutes from D.T. LA but for the rest of the world it's closer to an hour.

Exit right at the Jamboree exit off the 73 South, go straight on the access road until you come to Jamboree, turn right on Jamboree, go past FJMC, past the Land Rover dealer and turn left at the NPB Police Station. Up the hill into Fashion Island. Heck, you might even see MBTech during visiting hours at the NPBPS.

If you make it a Sunday afternoon gathering, I'll try to be there right after my church service duties. ...RAB

James, you're looking at 30-45 minutes. It's off of the 73 (before toll) and Jamboree.

NBPD said I can't have anymore visitors, not after the little incident with the cocaine and the strippers.


RAB neglected to mention that his church service duties include performing a portion of his community service sentence repainting the yellow lines in the church parking lot.

From my experience, usually we just hang out in the parking lot and talk. After a couple hours we drive/eat. I would imagine that as a group, we would do whatever the majority wants to.

My vote is for the Spearmint Rhino, or Deja Vu.

Oh ok. They could've just mentioned gentlemen's club. Been there. This is probably the best place for a strip club.
