I was in Vegas with my girl friend and decided that I was going to roam about on my own for awhile. I have been to the Trader Vic's in LA at the Beverly Hills Hotel several times, but had yet to have one of their famous Mai Tais. I had spoken to a friend earlier that day and he had told me that a Mai Tai was a must have at Trader Vics. I had just lost several hundred dollars at the Planet Hollywood Casino (attached to Trader Vics) and was thumbing through the "Players Club" book and found that they had a two for one deal. SWEET! I walked in and the place was completely dead...there were like 3 people in the whole place. I made my way to the bar and had a seat. I sat there for 10 MINUTES until the MANANGER came up and started friendly conversation. The sweetest little man I have ever met. After about 5 or so minutes of chatting about LA and the Queen Mary in Long Beach, I asked him if he could get the bartender so I could order a drink. He was shocked that I had yet to be served. He gave me his card so that I could call him personally to set up a reservation when I come up for my birthday in October. There, before me, sat the most incredible drink. The first sip was a heavenly burst of fruity rum that made my tongue do things x rated in my mouth! Before I could set the glass down, it was gone. Not to worry, the second Mai Tai was already waiting for me! Thanks to my friend in VA for insisting on my trying a Trader Vics Mai Tai. It was definately a highlight of my trip!

This airport is a work of art. It was carefully crafted and constructed to embody the entire Las Vegas experience. And of course, resemble a Vegas style hook up. Remember, whatever happens in Vegas stays in Vegas, unless it's herpes. That's the gift that keeps on giving. When you arrive, the airport is a full fledged casino that is bubbling with energy and features plenty of space, slick and shiny slot machines, decent restaurants, an upbeat crowd that looks fresh and beautiful and put together, and a smiling staff ready to welcome you to the party. It all makes the quite the impression and you fall quickly for the superficial charms. But when leave, the airport is a full fledged dump that is lathered in depression and features tight quarters, outdated slot machines, less than desirable fast food joints, an exhausted crowd is falling apart at the seams and running on fumes, and a grumpy staff that is quick to show you the door. It all leaves quite the impression and you grow to hate the superficial charms you once fell for. It is reminiscent of a Las Vegas style hook up where someone uses you for the night and then kicks you out before you can pass out in their room. You end up enduring the walk of the shame at 6 A.M., hungover, tired, and with the desert sun beating down on you. You feel like a dying vampire and the sun makes you want to kill yourself before your face melts off. Oh wait. That last part happens when you take the drug called "Charlie Sheen." Anyway, that pretty much is a Vegas style hook up. Well, at least that's what my friend told me from his hook up experiences in Vegas. But he doesn't have herpes. No really, I swear.

VERY OVERPRICED! even with insurance! What this dentist told me i needed done was going to be over $900! I went not far away to All Star Dental on Bonanza and Nellis and i paid 190! The staff was very nice and polite but for the out of pocket expenses I would not recommend this dentist.

Nieto landscaping is horrible and inconsiderate. The were working on my neighbor's front yard and they blew all the leaves and dirt in my clean lawn. When I went outside and told them to clean it up since they ruined my lawn. They finished their work and left without cleaning their mess up. They didn't even apologize. They are rude. Please don't give them business until they learn good manners. We have a yard work service also but he doesn't blow dirt from our yard to other people's and call it a job done.
