East Mesa's neon-sign decorated corridor harkens back to a bygone era that no longer sees the number of tourists flocking to places such as Starlite Motel along Main Street. Feb. 20, 2009

Mis-placed Priorities: We have battered women's shelters closing for lack of funding, transplant patients dying for lack of funding and homeless people within close proximity of the sign sleeping in the street without food or medical attention. But somehow, people find it in their heart to donate for the restoration of a sign!

I got my husband a "diving lady" t-shirt for Christmas. He will love it!

Unfortunately, the sign will be worth more than the entire hotel. It would be nice if the Patels would clean that dump up and be more discriminate as to who they rented rooms out to.[sad]
