I went to Border's (in Cerritos, CA) yesterday to try and find this issue. They still have the one with the Chili Red on the cover.

Are the pics pretty much the same as the ones we see on AMVIV's site?

Well, I called all 4 Borders in Las Vegas, 1 carries GoMINI but they don't have any right now. I called 3 Barnes & Nobles and none of them carry it.
Looks like it's damn hard to get in Las Vegas.

Somebody needs to pick up an extra copy for Agro of Sin City MINIs! I'm in the hinterlands (Florida Panhandle), but will look for GoMINI mag. If I see copies, I'll pick one up for you, Agro!

Thanks Clover. Tower says they get it, but right now they only have the June issue. I'm going to try again at the end of the week.
The 1 Borders that gets it says they get mags on fridays, but they have no idea what is going to come in.

If I can't get a copy by the weekend, I might take you up on that offer.

I can spot my car in the areal photo of the top of the parking garage. Pretty cool. I am a subscriber....or should I say was. Now that the mag has gone from bi-monthly to monthly it has become to expensive...try 89 pounds per year...or 160 US. Oh well.

Nope. I'm just a magazine junkie, so I'm at Tower all the time. (Well, not ALL the time, but a lot.)

Ok, Borders in Henderson finally got it in. I bought 3 of their 4 copies (2 for Donovan).
Very nice article. I'm going to email the author and thank him. 8 pics that I took, 1 that someone else took with my camera. That is the blurry Strip Cruise one.
Thanks to you guys for alerting me and the offers to get me a copy.
