Leaving Las Vegas

Ok, it's 7am and I'm at the airport sitting at a bar eating a little breakfast. Two older, already tanked guys sit down next to me and ask the bartender to filll their flasks for the flight. She explains that a shots are like 7 bucks and filling two flasks will be a little pricey. Now I happen to know that drinks on the plane are 5 bucks so this clearly does not make sense. They end up buying 10 shots a piece but are too unstable to pour the shots into the flasks from the plasic cup the bartender pours the vodka into. The bartender does this for them and then they order two double shot bloody mary's. This is an example of bad decision making that Las Vegas thrives on. They are going to have a nice flight. I hope to god they aren't going to DC.

Saw Bon Jovi last night at the Hard Rock Hotel. I forgot that they have some really good songs and they played them extremely well. It was a breath of fresh air after seeing Big Elvis the day before.

Can't wait to get home.

More soon....
