Las Vegas is the most human place I've been to.

(My thoughts sometimes end with prepositions.)

He said it was a random thought, not a rational one.

Actually, that (Greg's thought) seems to have a ring of truth to it.

Las Vegas is as close to hell as I want to get.

Flying in at night is just bizarre as you land practically on the Strip itself, that's the coolest part of Vegas. Otherwise it's full of sad people, some jaded, some normal, all sad.

Las Vegas is the most magical place I've been to.

Las Vegas is the most dry place I've been to.

Las Vegas is the most beige place I've been to.

Las Vegas is the most diaphoretic place I've been to.

Las Vegas is the most macropterous place I've been to.

Las Vegas is the most organically-composted place I've been to.

Wow.

Deep.

I went to vegas once. There were cards with naked women on them taped to the wall in front of all the urinals, with their phone numbers. People on the street "hit" me with rolled up newspapers advertising services requiring discretion. That was the bad part.

The good part was the water show in front of one of the hotels and a pirate show in front of another. The indoor mall that looks like it is outdoors is also fantastic. Sorry I don't know the names of these places. If I had had any money I would have taken in a show, I hear there are some fantastic ones.

I've been there twice, both times with MG.

I love collecting the cards that are offered on the street. I return home with a small pile of them, which I save for no good reason.

The city ( "city" = "strip" + "Fremont" ) appeals to a part of human nature that's not normally catered to. Drink if you want, go to strip clubs, hire hookers (not within city limits, I think), gamble. Do vice. Order omelets with everything at 3 o'clock in the morning. Then go downstairs and gawk at everything. Whee!

Really, the sentence popped into my head, and the above explanation is like trying to explain a dream. I can't know that's what it means, but it seems reasonable.

Doc: Wasn't shooting for deep; just offering what came into my head while doing other computer stuff. Just reportin' the news, live from Greg's brain.

Me neither.

You should mention what's on those "cards" for those unlucky enough never to have been to Vegas.

Maybe some people here will want to trade.

:devil:
