I’m thinking about working on this design… honest
What I didn’t realize was that in addition to the Consumer Electronics Show being in town, my hotel (the Flamingo) was hosting the 2004 Skanky Crack Hos of America (SCHOA) convention.
Vegas is a slime pit. Everything Hunter Thompson said about it in 1972 is just as true today as it was back then, No amount of veneer, no pretensions of class or style and sophistication, no amount of multi-billion dollar palaces to averice can hide the fact that it’s a seedy dump filled with glossy eyed seniors hoping to hit it big at the slots (while being scammed out of their pension checks) and guys with mullets and their mullet headed girlfriends and kids.
To call Vegas seedy would be an understatement. It defines seedy.
If I never have to go back there again I’ll be happy.
Of course CES 2005 is only 360 days away!
So is the SCHOA convention going to be at the same time and place next year?
What about the TOYS? What cool things did you get to play with? Gadgets, man, tell me about the gadgets!
Ah the toys… the toys… Oddly enough there were lots of iPods floating about. Not only in the HP booth but as give-aways and demonstrations of interesting technologies and stuff.
If one could buy stuff at the show (and technically you can’t) I would have been broke.
The SCHOA convention is the same time next year.
Hi. I’m an asshole comment spammer and to make matters worse I’m selling on-line gambling. So David deleted my message!
Have a nice day.
Did I add I’m an asshole?
