THE AMAZING BARNEY.
|
Well,
the Vegas Show Scandal turned out well in the end. The Amazing
Jonathan's show was hilarious and guess who he picked to come up on
stage with him for a good portion of the show? Yep, that's right:
Barney.
I almost crapped myself from laughing so hard.
|
|
|
AJ.
|
THE SUNSPOTS.
|
CLUELESS UTAH.
|
|
|
Second-Best Laugh
In Vegas: At the Plaza Hotel downtown, they had a band called The
Sunspots. They're a six-piece Filipino lounge band and they played
Sinatra, Elvis, and a bunch of standards. The highlight had to be the
guy playing the conch shell. I had a difficult time concentrating on
blackjack. What a riot.

According to recent statistics, people in Connecticut have the highest
cumulative IQ, with a score of 113. At the bottom of the list, good ol'
Mississippi with a score of 85. Some other notables: #2 Massachusetts
(111), #4 New York (109), #14 California (101), #17 My State Of Virginia
(100), #34 West Virginia (93), and #49 Utah (87).
West Virginia scored much higher than I would have thought. And Utah? Why so low, joe? Hmm. Ponderous.

JOURNEY.
|
FLYING.
|
|
Weird.
Someone
is walking down my street right now with Journey blasting out of a huge boom box.
Where the hell am I living? The Mullet Ghetto?
|
Oddly,
I've recently developed a fear of flying. Takeoffs and Landings are white-knucklers for me.
You know, I thought I was a little too
old to start being scared of something I've been doing since age 7, but
I guess not.

|
FIRST BASE.
|
Flying,
The Amazing Barney, The Sunspots, AJ, First Base, Big Wiener, Journey,
Copies, and Clueless Utah. |
|
I
just had a thought. What's gonna happen when I'm too old to play left
field on a regular basis? Hey, it's coming one day. I suppose I'd better
learn how to play first base. Ick.
|
|
|
COPIES.
|
BIG WIENER.
|
Waiting
for our plane in the Vegas airport, Beth went off to the bathroom and I
decided to wander over to the gift shop and then have a smoke (yes,
okay, I smoked in Vegas). At the gift shop, I picked up a copy of Sports
Illustrated for myself and a copy of People Magazine for her.
I thought buying her a magazine for the plane was a nice little gesture.
When I returned to the gate, Beth had already come back from her bathroom trip. And
guess where else she went and what she bought? She went to the gift
shop. And she bought a copy of Sports
Illustrated and a copy of People Magazine.
If that's not a sign we should be together I don't know what is.

Oh,
by the way, I was the big winner in Vegas this year. After crushing at
the blackjack table my first night (despite the 14 Coronas), I pretty
much won money every day. Well, except for the last day when I lost my ass.
But I came out ahead for the trip and got comp'ed for two nights at the
Monte Carlo.
