Been through DEN plenty of times, boy was I shaking in my pants  ::)

SNA is a much stranger airport due to the short runway plus steep/low-noise takeoff they have to do with reducing the power in middle of takeoff.  It's a nice ride!
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

Flying out of LGA is scary enough :)

The old HKG airport was REALLY scary when taking off and landing. One aborted takeoff and you were in someones 80th story office
