Me and the headless, armless Goddess of Victory in front of Caesars Palace (I named a character after her in high school, before I realized a shoe company beat me to it).  Uploaded more photos here. 

It was 105 degrees and amusing, for the most part.  I did think the Moving Statues at Caesars were ridiculously kitschy, but the volcano at my hotel (the Mirage) was surprisingly awesome, as were the Bellagio fountains (maybe that's not so much a surprise).  The Venetian was really, really fragrant, the Luxor was lolzy, the Excalibur had a lot of fast food joints (I see why Jennifer wanted to die when she was assigned the Excalibur as inspiration on Top Chef last season), and the MGM Grand was confusingly large.  We were sharing the Mirage with the West Coast Dance Explosion's national finals, so the casino floor was half old people on slot machines and half pre-pubescent girls in really heavy makeup and glamour bikinis. 

The food was good.

I think it will get better...and the more it's real discussion, not lecture-tangents, the better I think it will be.

Uh, I didn't think you were saying that. I just added that b/c I understood what you meant by type, but what I wrote seemed so teaching-centered.

Ok, sweet dreams!

You can park on 16th street at 2 hour meters, it turns out.
