output: For what it is, Liquid really excels. The problem this "exclusive" pool faces is that there are so many others in Las Vegas to compare it to, and thus people wind up making poor comparisons to things which aren't really alike. If you're planning to come to Liquid because you think it might be similar to the atmosphere at TAO Beach, Encore, Wet Republic, or other similar mega pool parties, then save yourself the money and the subsequent public whining, and just go to those places. I wouldn't quite call this space intimate, because there are still a couple hundred people here on a busy day, but it's definitely smaller in scale and goes for a more luxury appeal (appropriately situated at the high class Aria resort). The main Aria pool complex is pretty huge, so it's no wonder that more people don't try to get into Liquid, but it also explains why the promo ladies are constantly out patrolling with more free passes to get people in. Despite what some of the other reviews might say about "being cute getting you nowhere" here, I saw several ladies getting in for free. We personally got in free along with quite a lot of additional stuff thanks to a friend of ours who works for the company, but I would have rated Liquid the same without all the complimentary stuff. For the particular day I visited Liquid was exactly what I needed, a smaller spot to hang out with my friends on our day bed (which has a nice storage compartment for your belongings as well as multiple ice buckets for champagne, liquor bottles, mixers, and bottled water), listen to some pretty good DJ tunes, quickly add to the lingering buzz from the night before (with extra help from the super expedient service staff), and get a lot of bonus eye candy from the podium dancers. There are several points during the day where the DJ encourages everyone to splash the hell out of the pool though, so just be warned you might get your precious hair wet. While our immediate waitress and pool boy (or whatever these guys are called) were superb in their execution, the door staff did leave most of us with a bitter memory of Liquid. They are completely unnecessarily dickish here and definitely do not offer an inviting atmosphere. At one point Vidal left to get money from the ATM and come right back to tip the employees, only to get flack from one of the bouncers who quizzed him repeatedly before finally allowing him to return. I had the same thing happen to me when I went upstairs to the room to get my sunglasses and returned without my ID (which was poolside). My arm was clearly stamped for re-entry, but he felt the need to give me the cold stare down and accompanying inquiries... sorry mate, I don't budge for anyone, let alone Pool Patrol.

output: Horrible place to take your car for service! I can't tell you how many things they've screwed up, and to top it off, they don't tell me they're going to do a diagnostic check on my car until after they do it. So, I had to kiss $179 goodbye. They've lost a customer fo. sho.

Fry's Electronics is a place I go to in emergencies. Unfortunately, when something breaks on my computer, it usually takes the whole thing down. Forget about finding something at a decent price on Egghead and having it there in a couple days; no access to the internet means a trip to Fry's. And a trip to Fry's means finding out that they have everything - except the replacement part you need. You see, that part, which you installed a year before, is now obsolete, and they don't sell it. Never mind that millions of people are still using it because most of us can't afford to have bleeding edge technology and upgrade over every miniscule increase in speed or graphic ability, and that you can get it easily from an online store - to Fry's, it's obsolete. The reason it's obsolete? Because it's cheaper than the new item that they want you to buy. The new item that requires buying three or four more new items along with it since your old equipment is not compatible with the new. In this day and age, no computer means a third to a half of your communication with the outside world, and not to mention access to important parts of your life, is gone. You're stuck watching as a $50.00 replacement spirals into the $500.00 range. One thing that Fry's teaches you is preventative maintenance. You learn to make sure you've got some money and that Egghead or Amazon has what you need in store the first time you even hear the slightest rattle or see the slightest flicker. If not, it's back to Fry's - Virgil greets you at the door, you descend through the rings until, under the beating wings of the Beast himself, you gather everything you need and slowly wind your way through their service line and back to the Purgatory of their parking lot. And Virgil's tried to sell you a bunch of candy on the way out as well.
