  1. Update... Still didn't care for the entire ground floor smelling like smoke. If wego to this conference next year it will be at Aria as it is moving locations. We went to Beauty and Essex (in the Cosmopolitan) for dinner on Wednesday. Very good overall and their menu is very conducive to sharing. Kind of helped redeem my thougths on food in Veags. Four of us shared the following: Little French Dips, Deep-Dish Focaccia Bites, Grilled Cheese and Tomato Soup Dumplings (really enjoyed these, Thai-style Deep Fried Shrimp, Cavetelli Pomodoro (the weak link in the meal). We ended up getting the Black-Bottomed Butterscotch Pot de Crème on the house at the end and it was excellent. On Thursday, a prospective vendor took us to dinner at Lamaii off the strip on Spring Mountain Road. This was a superior meal. We shared amongst the table again. We got the Garlic Green Beans, Salmon Noir, Panang Crispy Duck, Garlic Herb Crispy Prawn, Mun Pu (crab) Fried Rice and Gang Rawaeng (braised beef in curry). Everything was examplary. My attitude has changed a little from Tuesday and I could see going back but not staying at one of the casinos or hotels on the strip.
  2. I didn't know RFK posted here.
  3. Transportation because she makes my motor go? Education because I want to know her carnally?
  4. Labor because of the work she could make me do? Commerce because she has the goods. Interior because I want to be in her?
  5. Or Treasury with those money makers.
  6. More like 8D cheese
  7. We've gone plaid.
  8. Re-read Briskets post. The press will find a way to both sides thos an NYT Pitchbot it's way through it
  9. One of original brain drains was after WWII when the scientists left the government and went to the private sector. Lots of innovation and product development occurred so maybe this is a good thing?
  10. First time in Vegas. Staying at Ceasars Palace and have a conference here. Some confirmation bias for sure but this isn't my scene. It's 2024 and the entire ground floor smells like cigarette smoke. I'm not a gambler so slots and table games aren't for me. I got in last night and Vegas and flying solo here is kind of a bummer. Sitting at a bar is out since I don't drink. I can see the appeal because it's pretty impressive but it feels like a cruise ship except its Carnival, Royal Caribbean and Norwegian all rolled into one. The people watching is interesting though.
  11. You..... Are..... Naive.
  12. Get ready for the University of Trump at Austin, University of Trump at Chapel Hill, Trump University - Vanderbilt Campus, University of Trump - Los Angeles, Trump University - Purdue Campus, Trump University - Harvard Campus, et al.
  13. I don't want anything bad to happen to Gazans. But there's some American's that I hope get there pee-pee wacked off.
  14. Maybe they're tied of seeing you too!
  15. That depends... Food and drinks at the tailgate or getting bent over on the tailgate?
  16. Women don't generally and willingly leave their kids behind. I mean, unless you're Greg Swindell's daughter .
  17. Frank Stallone?
  18. Trump reinstating Schedule F should worry any sane person. But then Tuesday happened.
  19. I agree with you about those people. I just know some of us can't and aren't like that. Do I care about me and my family first and foremost? A resounding yes. Do I care about others and take care not to take advantage of them? Again, yes. Do I try and help others who are not as fortunate as I am. Yes. And so do you.
  20. Over under on how long Brisket can keep this "Me, me, me" trope going? 1 day? 2?
  21. I was talking to a family member last night about this last night. If Selma happened today on live TV, a significant portion of Americans would be very, very OK with the dogs and fire hoses being turned loose on the marchers.
  22. Like it did on Tuesday? Bwahahaha. As long as the Golden Bachelorette and America's Got Talent are on America isn't doing shit.
  23. Searching Mark Kelly on Twitter did not return the desired result.
  24. I had a Trumper tell me yesterday that all illegal immigrants are criminals because they broke the law by coming here. That was her rationalization for deporting all of them. As someone said up thread, I'll personally benefit from tax breaks and business reforms that should come our of this. I work for a bank and know this will affect me monetarily (in a positive way) before the end of the year because our dividend is now going to go up for sure. I'm going to keep my head down and my mouth shut while encouraging my daughters to move out of Texas. And maybe find a significant other from New Zealand so we can all emigrate.
