Can You Believe These Things Are Still Up?

Power Lines Las Vegas Strip

Billions, and billions, and billions of dollars spent to make The Strip look super high-class and entertaining, yet the proclaimed “Times Square of Las Vegas”, the intersection of The Strip and Flamingo, still looks like an industrial park in Bayonne, New Jersey.

This is freaking ridiculous.

So many good photo opportunities are messed up because of the high voltage power lines running overhead to mega-casinos like Caesars and the Bellagio.

Not to mention it just looks ass-over-nads ugly when you are walking or driving down The Strip.

I remain shocked that they don’t put these things underground.

They don’t want to mess up the aesthetics of The Strip by putting a Monorail up the middle (which would actually be useful) , but these gazillion volt cables that are just one weak link away from snapping and frying 2,000 people to Colonel Sanders’ extra-crispy is perfectly cool?

I don’t get it.

Spend a few bucks and bury these eyesores already.

Who was the genius who said “No, I prefer them way up above ground where everyone can see them!”? Is he the same guy who said “Let’s build the Imperial Palace on a storm channel!”?

Let There Be Light

Palazzo Las Vegas

For the first time, I noticed early this morning that the Palazzo top was lit up.

Since I am not terribly observant it is possible that it has been that way for awhile, but it was new to me.

The Encore “Slope”

Encore Las Vegas

I got in a spot today where I got a better look at the upcoming Encore.

I don’t know why I never noticed before, but they are recreating the Wynn “slope” at the top.

It looks like it is just going to be a mini-Wynn beside the main hotel.

Kind of like “THE Hotel” is to the Mandalay.

Shitney’s Getting Married in Vegas … Again

Shitney SpearsOooops!

That wacky bitch is doing it again.

One 48 hour Vegas wedding wasn’t enough, so she’s going to do it again soon.

I only hope that when she is back in town for this wedding, I’ll be somewhere nearby with a camera when she flashes her cooter.

Sure it looks a little like week old roast beef, but still … a cooter is a cooter, and if this must happen … I want to be there for the money shot.

Apparently she is marrying her personal assistant.

I suppose now we know what kind of assistance he provides.

I just knew that she couldn’t have shaved THAT closely on her own.

So, is any of this noteworthy?

Yes.

Shitney is dragging the pristine image of Las Vegas through the mud and I really think it should stop.

It should have stopped after the first marriage. It should have stopped after the VMA debacle.

For crying out loud, can’t she leave our town out of this nonsense?

We’re still coping with O.J., Pacman, and David Copperfield … not to mention the awful shame of 6/5 Blackjack.

If I hadn’t seen those cootchie pictures, I would sooo be spanking my monkey to the above picture right now.   But everytime I try, that other photo enters my head.  Thanks paparazzi!!!  Assholes.  They ruined Lindsay for me, and this chick too.  I better learn to get into that Japanese anime porn, or I am going to have nothing left to punish the primate to.
