    There is a Police sub station at the entrance of Cholla, rarely manned. Yep, JJ's is different, in some areas, much needed improvements, also in many ways over done. They figure they make more $$ from selling fewer $14 food items than many $3-5 ones

    Yep, DosXX, Tecate, Amstell light and Bud Lite are plentiful. Most other Corona products are still very scarce. Now Tecate lite on tap isn't too bad, but in bottles not so good.
