just got back from Vegas last night
had a pretty good time. won some money, lost some money, broke even.
-On the way down, we went to the Calico Ghost Town. Kind of a let down, but it was ok. We went into some mining tour, and it was kinda creepy
-the temperature driving down there was 104 degrees F. the hottest it got i think while we were there was like 130, and the coldest was around 90-something
-we stayed downtown at the 4 queens. i would have preferred staying on the strip, but it was ok. just a standard room
-i won on just about every machine i played. its the ones i didnt win on that ate my winnings. bastards.
-we went to this club at Ceaser's Palace called PURE. It's supposedly the best club in the country at the moment. It's a 4 hour wait to get in, $40 cover charge, and drink prices are outrageous. If you wanted to buy a bottle of Jagermeister, its $365. a bottle of Absolut Vodka? $700. some of their wines were ranging in the $1000's, with the most being like 7 or 8 thousand.
----we didnt have to pay for a damn thing. the friend i went with works with a guy who's best friend is brothers with the head manager of the club, and a few phone calls, and we got taken care of. we rang up about 6 or 7 hundred $$$'s on our tab, and got pretty shit faced.
-we went to a show called 'Skintight'. It's showgirls were rated the #1 in Vegas recently, and they were led by a playboy playmate who i didnt find attractive. The other dancers were amazing though. And the show was pretty good too.
-walking thru one of the casinos, i saw Lemy. yes. Lemy from Motorhead and Probot. He was just sitting there playing a sot machine. He looked either really tired, or drunk or whatever. He looked at me and kinda looked away like whatever
-when we were at a red light, a guy who was stoned out of his mind, walked up to us and tried to give us a joint thru the window. scared the shit out of us because we werent expecting it. we just rolled the window up and left. my car smeled like pot for like 3 hours
-we went to a really shitty buffet that served, among other "delicacies", beefaroni, and an anti-pasto salad that featured uncooked hot dogs.
-upon leaving Vegas, i stopped to get gas, and managed to spill some on my leg. so we went to the top of a parking garage, and i changed my pants and lathered up my leg and washed it. all within the view of New York New York, the Monte Carlo, and Excalibur. any guests staying on that side of the hotels and happened to be looking dwn on the garage got a free show
-what normally takes 4 hours, the drive home took 6 hours. Right when we were leaving, it started to rain very hard. the streets were flooding, and it took us almost an hour just to get out of the city.
