This time each year, soon after the weather has changed and it’s just so damned nice you want to be outside all of the time, Las Vegas Bike Fest hits town and no matter where you go you see an unusual number of bikes on the prowl around town. I’ve never really gone down to the shows to check them out, although I’ve always admired a sexy-looking chopper, myself.

The Las Vegas Bike Fest is apparently a somewhat diffuse event, with different parts of it spread out over town.

When most people hear the phrase “monsoon season” they think of the famously rainy monsoons of India that they learned about in school. What’s really odd to me is how they always teach about “monsoons” in the context of some very foreign place to North America – there are monsoonal weather patterns every single year right here in the Southwest to learn about.

During that time the media now and again makes reference to her plans to purchase and convert a Las Vegas brothel in the Pahrump Valley into Nevada’s first male brothel for women, aptly to be named “Heidi’s Stud Farm…” :P

In an article back on January 26th I wrote about how I thought our hometown girl Katie Rees was robbed when Donald Trump and company stripped her of her crown for having a night of Las Vegas-style fun while out in Florida. Too bad the photos cost her her tiara and sash, but I think she’s gotten way more benefit out of the publicity than she would have had without it. She’s a celebrity now. Before this, no one knew who she was, really.
