Just got back from a week in Las Vegas. it was HOT! Literally.

So I'm hanging at the pool at Caesars Palace with all these old folks from Wichita and Yoohootieville and they all got their farmer john tans ...uh...like me.... and blaring from the pool loud speakers is Joy Division and some really early Cure. This went on ALL WEEK LONG! It was surreal.

My daughter swims up to me and says, "Dad, they're playing the Cure", to which I respond, "Yes...there IS a God. Even in Las Vegas".

        Not much of a casino gambler but I did manage to win $250 on the slots. I prefer poker games at home with friends. Hey, any Tribsters out there who plays poker? Friendly game/dealer's choice? Anyone?

          "Trivia question: Which NWC Tribster was born in Las Vegas?"

          Well we know obviously that it was not you since you were born in some 5th world country (as we have heard too many times about!)

          The correct answer is: The NWC Tribester born in Las Vegas!

            I know this one. it's the absent Tribe member, aka Skip. I remember him saying that he just finally went to Vegas for the first time a couple years ago, even though he was BORN there! weird!

              Dina is correct. It is indeed our Tribe moderator, Skip who was born in Las Vegas. I think the story goes his mom rolled craps and out he came. I hope I didn't butcher the story.

              As for me, Tony Baloney....born in good old San Francisco.
