Reminds me of something a friend in real estate once told me.Quote:

I know there was a third thing too, but I can’t for the life of me remember what it was.
Sahara, Strat, and Golden Nugget are all running No Resort Fee deals right now. It may be a sign.

V, you should recognize her approach by now--it's the same as kew's, only she doesn't need a thousand words to get her retarded & make-believe point across.Quote:

OF COURSE she has no clue about was LV was or is. And if kew REALLY knew what he is talking about, it wouldn't have been lifted from posts Dan, I, and others have been saying about RW, FB, and the north end of the Strip for years now. That is why he rambles thru everything, thinking he's impressing the masses as well as any Man-About-Town would be expected to.
I've been more than 50 miles away from home. I have visited Cozumel, Mexico, have been to Orlando, and have been to Jamaica. :)Quote:

Guess what, for most people that have a casino or two within an hours drive, that does NOT replace what Las Vegas is/WAS. If people want to go shopping, they don't have to come to Vegas to do so. If the younger crowd wants to go clubbing, they can do so in every major city. They ruined what Vegas was and should be.
Just out of curiosity Tasha, have you ever been to Vegas? I though I read that you haven't been more than 50 miles from home.
Just read a piece on LV tourism being down 6.5% and another piece on Aria charging $26 for a bottle of water out of the wet bar. It looks to me like the reason for the drop in traffic is people are tired of the price gouging.
I was annoyed when a coke at a movie theater costs $9. I just wanted a small amount so I said fuck it and ordered water. People need to push back more but nah, people can't even vote in their own interest. They love voting in the interests of the wealthy who own media.Quote:

I got tired of paying out the nose for water while on the road. So I buy the 40 packs of 16 ounce bottles at Walmart for like $5.60 plus tax and throw it in the vehicle. It comes to about 15 cents per bottle. I buy cups of ice in the gas station/C stores usually about 50 cents. And I carry 4 bottles into the hotel rooms with me at night. Screw all those price gouging bastards.Quote:
