Hells Kitchen yesterday...
Live like that if you want to. I chose not to.
Here a several years ago, I got in a really tough financial spot. Looked like I was going to have to sell some of my vintage dirt bikes I had in order to make ends meet. Mentioned it to some of my dirt bike buddies. Their response?
They offered to buy one of my more rare bikes (irreplaceable) for more than I gave for it... and hold it for me until I could get things in order. Then they would sell it back to me if I still wanted it... sort of an open ended loan with no interest.
Fortunately, I didn't have to sell... but still... nice to have motorcycling friends.
So, having "been there", I don't think I could bring myself to trying to get a rock-bottom price from somebody in a bad situation. I would either offer them a fair price, or pass entirely.
Your life, your conscience, live it and deal with it the way you want to.
I've been there many times, Cassidy (sp?) is a really nice girl, and I enjoy the food. I go there for lunch on weekdays (screw Ortega on weekends, too dangerous), usually smoke a cigar while I'm there, and relax for awhile.
On a longer ride, however, I'll go right past Hell's Kitchen, take the 15S, ride Palomar, and get lunch in Julian or San Diego. I did that about a week about, nice little 400-mile ride.

Ortega highway is an awesome winding road - breathtaking in some areas.
I also recommend Cook's Corner. It gets a little busy on the weekends, though. They have a bike night on Wednesdays with all-you-can-eat spaghetti.
There is another place in Elsinore called Menace. Good food and a bike shop.

Yup... you got it dead-on. Wrong thread.
I'm still learning to responsibly use a keyboard. Quite a challenge to do so, apparently.
At least you guys have a good sense of humor.
Hoookay... off to edit/copy/paste.
