DISCOVERING PLEASURES AT TREASURES
November 15, 2009 – 5:33 pm
It had been a long day of wine tasting at the Hilton, literally more than a thousand wines to choose from. And there was Billy O’ Rourke’s new tequila served by hot girls via cold ice luge—you get the picture. So later as I sat at the Circle Bar at the Hard Rock Hotel one [...]
A BLAST FROM THE PAST IN LAS VEGAS – NOT EXACTLY
November 9, 2009 – 5:41 pm
“So you’re in Vegas staying at Fat Andy’s house?” asked Norm Rosenstein, my accountant, whom I put in charge of all of my former business interests from way back in my empire building years of insanity. “Yeah, he has an extra bedroom,” I responded…Norm usually gives me the business about my lack of interest in [...]

Why in the middle of writing a script, “Downtown Oliver Brown”, I would hop into James’ Hummer and road trip to Vegas I don’t know. I miss the “Road To Nowhere”, gypsy, just irresponsible, need change of scenery, all of the above—whatever, I’m in Vegas. So why not a travel blog? This qualifies as work. [...]
