Ridiculous

Mandolay Bay- THEhotel

I am not a "vegas person" but I love it. It's like Disney World gone to a XXX Book Store and ABC Liquor Store and a Dave and Busters on Meth- all in one.
Like? Open container and being able to walk around with a drink in my hand and just people watch. Like the weather. The variety of food, drink, and things to do soothes my impulsive side with the 24 by 7 go go go ability here (I was in bed by midnight, BUT I could have stayed and played poker to 5 AM and got a filet minion, a six pack of Tab with Capt Morgan and I'd guess if I opened the yellow pages we would have found strippers to dance with in a mobile dance club on wheels with a ball pit in it). Basically, ANYTHING is possible here for enough cash.

Hate? The amount of smokers, cigarettes, cigars and overall smoke filled streets, sidewalks, eateries and bars. Really, everywhere you go is just smoke filled awfulness. I am a reformed smoker, a smoke nazi you could say? While I am not one to tell others to "not do" what they want, I am still bitching about the smoke. I am such a hypocrite. Lets use my guns as a example? - I want my guns with me all the time, and I love my guns! But I can't take my guns in a casino? Maybe they should leave out the smoking? At least have some smoke free zones for us wusses who cry about it?Ridiculous?

Guns? Try taking a CAMERA into a casino. You'll be face on floor and cuffed faster than Bin Laden's homeboys.
Smoking is mostly banned in our casinos (restaurants, pubs, etc except for dedicated outdoor areas) though there are some exemptions for "high roller" type rooms.
And I don't want to be around when your wife reads the thing about the strippers and the ball pit.
Interesting shot, though; aquatic blue is not a colour scheme that one typically associates with Vegas.
