  1. I was going to leave a trip report when I was there, but I got distracted. 🙂 . I know $4.50 isn’t much, but hey, it could have been $200k if I won.

  2. There is a Kylie Minogue song in Peepshow, it’s called Red Blooded Woman. I like the Peepshow version a little better, but I did hear it there first.

  3. Hey T&M! Enjoy your trip! Raise a glass to your listeners who can’t be there with you. We wish we could. Best of luck in the casinos.

  5. The countdown has to be all you can think about! This is a good time of the year to get spiked coffee drinks in the morning. Just sayin!

  6. You lucky sonsabitches… leaving those poor dogs at home. For shame.

    Have a great time in Vegas, will miss the weekly podcast but can’t wait to see the live feed!

  7. So Garth Brooks is gonna have a show in LV. Acoustic at that. I have seen him before with full band in Texas Stadium. One helluva a show. I don’t know how good he will do by his lonesome. Will be interesting to see. And the ticket price of $125 for any seat….looks like I will not be enjoying the show. I will just be enjoying seeing his face all over everything on the strip. I bet the WynnCore has their own Garth channel now. How “Shameless”. And in Vegas he will always have “Friends in High Places”….or will it be low. I guess time will tell.

  8. Since you’re going to Vegas, I thought I’d share some lessons I’ve learned about Ed Hardy tools. Specifically what to do if you have a close encounter with an Ed Hardy wearer.

    1. Above all, be careful, they might be stupid.
    2. If you accidentally surprise an Ed Hardy, talk slowly, move deliberately, and say “hey brah” a lot.
    3. The scent of the Ed Hardy is strong, a simple sniff may help you avoid them.
    4. If you are a female and encounter an Ed Hardy up close, studies have shown yelling “security!!!!” banging pots and pans, and using mace are effective deterrents. Do not play drunk, this can encourage an instinctive flirting behavior in the Ed Hardy.
    5. Finally, remember that Vegas is the natural habitat for the Ed Hardy, we only visit. Take only pictures, count only douche bags, leave only laughing.
