I’m rich Biotch! January 5, 2006

Well ok not really. We’re back from Vegas, and I have to say that my luck was nothing short of amazing out there. After winning over $700 on the Wheel of Fortune slot machine, incurring the sour looks of little old ladies in the casino, coupled with my other winnings at various other slot machines and the black jack tables, I believe I came out on top. I give full credit to my wife being there and her very lucky baby belly, which I rubbed for luck whenever possible. I’d like to say a personal thank you to the Mirage Hotel for not only putting us up, but also paying for it via their casino.

New Years (By the way Happy New Year Everyone!) was pretty cool. After eating at a ridiculously expensive restaurant and then paying a ridiculous amount of money to get into PURE Nightclub ($200 a head, no free food, no free drinks) we made our way up to the roof to watch the fireworks and hopefully see our host Nicky Hilton. Suddenly the countdown started, I looked down at my watch and saw we had another 5 minutes to go. Some moron had started the 10 second countdown way too early, and of course everyone followed suite. It was the most anti climatic new year countdown I’ve ever had. I looked up at one of the billboards and saw the real 20 second countdown start. What followed was nothing short of amazing. Ten hotels on the strip from one end to the other launched the largest coordinated fireworks display I have ever seen. Take the finally of any fireworks display you have seen, double it and then have it going for 10 minutes, then have it coordinated in 10 different locations from St. Georges to Somerset and it will be close to what I saw! Nicky Hilton showed up about 5 minutes before the fireworks and left about 2 minutes later. Stevie Wonder however bumped into Robin and said “Excuse me”. This of course made the trip for her. Her claim to fame, her brush with a star.

We did take in two shows. The first was The Amazing Jonathan. The guy was hilarious, but the experience was wrecked by the “VIP” tickets we paid for which put us at a table so far to the front side of the stage we were practically below/behind it. A whole 15 minute skit went by that we couldn’t see due to the curtains being in the way. If you do decide to go to Vegas, don’t stay at the Sahara Hotel, it BLOWS!

The next night we saw Jubilee at Ballys Hotel. The show was pretty good. Lots of naked breasts, too many to focus on, I pretty much missed the plot and I’m sure Robin threw some bad looks my way. They did have some pretty weird skits though, one with 2 Asian dudes and a barrel and another with 2 guys swinging over head on sheets of silk. That was pretty queer…..but the boobs were great! :)

The rest of the trip was spent shopping (of course, we did have the wives with us after all), gambling and seeing the other hotels. All in all a good time was had by all. Unfortuantely I couldn’t find a battery charger for my camera, so I’ll post a link to Kevin’s site when he posts his pictures. What in the hell are Siegfried and Roy doing to me here?!?

Sigy, Roy and Me

Update

Kevin has posted pictures here. Things to see are me winning on the slot machines, and yes that is a dolphin penis…..we were just in time apparently (ewwww)!
