I just picked up a couple in front of Bill’s Gamblin’ Hall and the vibe that they are giving off is really strange. I would guess that they’ve probably been at Drai’s because they’re dressed up and the girl looks really tired. Aside from the initial directions they haven’t said a word to each other (or me) since they got in the cab, but it doesn’t seem like they’ve been fighting or anything. I usually find it rather strange when it happens, but people frequently act as if they’re in some sort of automated conveyance – I might as well be a robot for all the notice I’m given. Though, I must admit, sometimes I prefer it. I let them sit in silence.

martini-girlFour score and… okay who am I kidding, in 2006, I started my little Las Vegas blog on WordPress.com, not realizing at the time that it would be much better to have my own domain and the freedom that comes with it.  Not very long after that I moved to my own domain, here on WhileLasVegasSleeps.com, and here we have remained with the same sad, ugly ass blog theme since day 1.1.

The five girls that are about to get into my taxi don’t look like part of a bachelorette group (mainly because I don’t see any penis-shaped accessories), but they give off that bachelorette vibe. And they’re certainly loud enough. I immediately put my guard up. Many people don’t realize this, but, much like other wild creatures that you don’t want to encounter in large numbers, packs of girls in Las Vegas are dangerous. Like wolves and piranha…or Africanized bees.

“While Las Vegas Sleeps…” has always been about stories about Las Vegas, from the very beginning. It always will be. It’s not just about hearsay or conjecture. It’s about personal mileage. The way I live my life, well, I’m something of a student of Hunter S. Thompson’s gonzo journalism philosophy of telling stories: Go where the story is, interact with it on its terms, and become the story.

We’re in the middle of a redesign of the site that I’ve been planning for some time – it has been long-coming, due to my need to remediate myself in the ways of modern web design.
