Saturday Nights in Vegas
I have to confess: it’s been too damned long since I’ve been out clubbing.

That probably stems from my basic idea that Las Vegas is an adult playground and the whole Disneyfication thing from the early 90′s is still hanging around in a few very minor ways, including amusements that were originally designed to occupy the kids while Mom and Dad spent their college tuition funds at the craps table and slot machines.
