Sorry, that's Elliot Spitzer-kind of money.  Even my ex isn't screwing me over for that much.

That weekend, you can take 2 or 4 day Defensive Handgun or 2 or 4 day Practical Rifle, at FrontSight, up where Rob lives...about 60 miles N of Vegas.

I think there is still an all nude strip club, where you bring your own booze.  It's back by the freeway in the area of the Stratosphere.
Help keep America beautiful...deface a liberal.

The Democrat and Republican parties are simply the left and right wings of the same bird of prey.

The road to freedom is paved with dead liberals.

A pharmacist friend of mine was telling me about all kinds of all nude places in Las Vegas, on top of a few illegal brothels.

FrontSight brings alot of great people to our town for a visit. I run into alot of the students around town. The group of guys that you bring with BadCat seem top notch.

Not really--kinda doing LV on the "cheap" this time.  Actually got my room for $39/night, and they waived that effin scam "resort fee".

There's always cheap beer and blackjack downtown.

I was wondering how many people you could cram into a $39 a night room?  :whatever:

I remember going to New Orleans and we had about 8 people... heh... entered in 2 groups so they wouldn't suspect....

Yeah, hotels keep pretty tight security, especially on busy weekends. But, I've also seen a few that were very relaxed which was a shock to me.

Okay, so later this week or next week we get a head count?

Called TI--I don't have enough points to get into the "invited guest" Super Bowl event at Mystere Theater, unless I play some ungodly amount like the second I arrive (I was quoted min. table bets of $150 for at least 1 hour to be eligible.)

You make the dangerous assumption that I'm going over to Imperial Palace?  (sigh)...the things I do for you and your family...

The correct term is "little horses".  Get it right, man.

Then there was the part with the midgets in leather--that was freaky to say the least.

Lagasse's Stadium or just some local place with loose video poker and waitresses?

I wonder if this is the goal to which I should aspire...anything less and I haven't partied enough?

A sports book busy during the Superbowl? Even one with handheld units that let you bet on the outcome of every play?

Yeah, you would have to get there at about 6 AM for a seat...

And of course, my boss wants me to place a couple of SB bets for him before the game starts.  Oh yeah, just gonna waltz on up to the window and drop his ducats, no worries.  Flight gets in at 1?  Line at the cab stand, get to the hotel around 2ish?  Piece of cake, dude!

Sheesh.
