NAB, Vegas, Oh My!
So, I’m back from Vegas. I had a great time visiting my bro and his fam, as well as going to the various Vegas attractions. Oh yeah, apparently there was some kind of tech show in town…
I stayed with Ethan at the Excalibur. Compared to The Sahara, it was like the greatest hotel in history. Compared to the other places I’ve stayed on the Strip, it was seriously sub-par.
To be honest, the best time I had during the entire trip was Saturday night, when we spent the entire night downtown at the Fremont Street experience. I drank super-tall daiquiri after daiquiri. We dined on 4 star cuisine such as deep fried oreo cookies and deep fried twinkies.
While downtown, we played single-deck blackjack with the dregs of society. I won $100 or so, all the time drinking from my 3 foot tall daquiri glass.
The next evening, Ethan & Missy went to see Spamalot, but unfortuatenly Ethan didn’t enjoy it. I chose not to go as I wanted it to be a special “date night” for them. Lucky me. I saved like $99 dollars… more to spend in the slots! Although, since I did have dinner at Sir Galahad’s, I don’t know how much money I really saved. I did manage to get a free $10 dessert… ask me how!
Anyway, I am Vegas’ed out… I can only handle the “experience” once every six months, at the most. NAB 2008 seems to be the perfect opportunity to regroup.
At least I didn’t try to hit on a cocktail waitress…. oh wait…. did I? 
Ooh, I’m jealous! I wanna go to Vegas!
