I'm watching The Rehab at the Hardrock Cafe show and some bitch is complaining, yelling and literally crying cause she only received a 200.00 tip vs a 600.00 as a Cabana cu nt. The Cabana was 3k and she wanted 20% gratuity...She said she had to pay her bills.
First off ya fuckin' cu nt, A tip is a fuckin' privilege. This bitch made a ghey that spent 3k feel like shit because she didn't get a 20% tip.
Being in Vegas and having a huge service industry people bitching about tips is common. The most I ever tip is 12%. I feel after a certain dollar amount tipping gets outrageous. The dirty whore got fired at least.
I'd dare someone to question a tip cause the first thing I'd do is curse them out, then slap the shit out of them or clean their clock. When did tips become a right? If the business wants to give the employees more money they need to include it in the cost. Bitches today are outrageous. The company pays you a salary or hourly to do a job. (Unless you're a stripper or bartender).
Here in Vegas you don't need a high school diploma and you can make 60-70k a year in tips as a valet or cocktail waitress. I make the same thing and I have a damn degree and actually work. :X

I hate all this tipping shit you have to do in the states. I mean yes, in certain circumstances here in Aus you leave a tip, but over there you fucking have to tip everyone for everything..... ::)

If the chick needs to pay her bills, then she needs to find a better job. A tip, is just that, a tip...it is not a right...It's kinda like how women expect one to open the door for them, once you do, they don't say thank you. So, they expect you to open the door, just like people expect a tip...these are are called courtesies...they are not be expected.

Great point Webcke. I almost forgot to mention in all my worldly travels in the last 10 years, tipping is very different. In Germany it's not even 10% and in Korea it's considered an insult to tip.

While I agree with you to a point, it seems obvious that you're lamenting the fact that you've poorly negotiated your own salary.
-
Not talking about the skank being discussed, but as for tipping, don't forget the waiters/waitresses, etc... as they are most often not even paid minimum wage and tips are factored into what they take home. If you get bad service, I can understand, but a decent tip should be factored into dining out.
-

I can see tipping a waitress, considering in the States they are often paid under minimum wage, but I agree with you that tipping in the United States is out of control. Everybody expects a damn tip. What is worse is when they factor the tip into the bill. This takes power right out of the consumers hand. What if your service is horrible, there is nothing you can do about it.
-
Looked like she was ragging on them for a tip from the beginning because she had a preconceived idea that brits don't tip.

When I was visiting London a few years ago the bartender said something along the lines of "Where in the states are you from?" without me saying a word....she knew because I tipped when getting drinks.

Huh? I'm very happy with my pay especially considering I was living with my parent 6 months ago and the unemployment rate here is nuts. My salary has nothing to do with it. I'm comparing a job that requires a college degree and and job were you're a server. Not too many places in the states where a server is going to make that much.

After 5 years I came off my antidepressants. I feel great! :D
I never felt more alive. I actually have emotions now.
-
Wiggs what the hell is going on? You are turning into an angry black. Are you not getting as much tranny love as you need?
-
I was serious. A month ago I came off my antidepressants after 5 years. Doc said I should try. I feel great. Problem is all my emotions are magnified. I'm sure everything will even out. While I was on I really didn't feel anything and got used to the numb feeling (not cool).

I do agree though.....tipping everywhere is a pain in the ass.

Rehab is for gays

Watched the show last night and while she was over the top being a bitch about wanting a tip, I think she did have something of a point.
The guy spent 3k on the cabana, and left her a $200 tip. She was always money hungry, and every episode she appeared in, she was always saying "Money this...money that...I need to pay my bills." I watched one of the shows where she said she made over $500 in tips for that one afternoon! What the fuck kind of bills do you have that if you make that every Sunday, PLUS being a school teacher full-time, and that's not enough?! Shit...
Wiggs, you would know, do waitresses make any base pay or is their pay solely off tips? That would be a serious consideration to me. Because if she's strictly off tips, then working the entire day and getting a $200 tip from him, in which you then have split with the bartender and the cabana boy (7.5% each I think they said), then that leaves you with nothing for your entire days work.
But she was over the top about forcing the issue.
And I was hoping Matt would get fired, that guy is a prick!

Fixed for the truth.
This topic, although no where near as serious, could be up there with abortion and same sex marriage discussions when it comes to amount of times it's discussed. I feel a wai-ter/tress should be tipped in the states since they don't make minimum wage in most cases so they depend on that tip, but if I know they make more than minimum wage and still expect a tip then it better be the best fucking service i've ever had for me to leave even a small tip. I've traveled around a bit and liked the service in Japan, and in their culture it is not a common thing to tip. Bangkok on the other hand was the "give me a hand out" capital of the world. People wanted tips for the dumbest shit.

Here`s a tip for ya`..........never rub Ben Gay on a hardon!!

Hmmm...be careful dude. If you find your symptoms coming back there are other antidepressants that don't make you feel so emotionless. But you might have to find one that works best for you. They seem to have different affects on different people.

imagine falling out of the air accidently in the middle of that pool. i wouldnt know how fast i could reach the side.
-
Some places add the tip onto the bill.Probably what the Hard Rock should do to get all the bitching out of the way. When you have bunch of aggressive women, there will be trouble. Some places pool the tip money and is split when a shift is done. Tip's should depend on the service and quick attention you get. Like a sliding scale from very good to very bad. Not a right by any means for a waiter/waitress, got to earn the bucks. Only tip I might give to a bad, indifferent waiter/waitress is to get another job. Exceptional ones, 20%.

Thanks friend. I have no problem going back on if I had to. I really do feel great. I'm also losing weight. I guess one of the side effects was weight gain. My sex drive is back but I'm like a 14 year old. My cock is so sensitive now 2 min and I'm done. It's funny as hell. One of the side effects while on was loss of sex drive and difficulty climaxing. I just thought I was getting old. I have these weird brain zap things going on where it feels like vertigo and nausea at the same time for a second. They are becoming less frequent.

in germany,you don't have to

Yes, it is a polarizing topic. No need to accuse me of cleaning cock though.
If someone goes above and beyond, I'll tip and tip great but people shouldn't expect tips. Life is not a soup kitchen and that's what it has come to is the customer feeling guilty (not me) if they don't tip or tip 20%. Only in America ::)
-
in germany,you don't have to
You don't have to here either, but you should be tipping waitresses, etc... in Germany. I remember they had some phrase like stimsol (sp) that essentially meant round up and give me back my change. It worked great. Of course it all depends on the service.

You dont tip in mcdonalds do you?
Why not?? They take your order and serve you food(relative term)

Rehab is for gays
I always thought this photo of the IFBB Christmas Party was funny. DId yu guys see when Sean Rey's ex Sasha was on Rehab. She told the guy she was with she used to be a guy.
-
NW-
I didn't see the episode, was it an older one or of this (current) season?
-
while that looks like a awesome party, i get the feeling that that party is mostly made up of out of town rubes
-

In the states even mcd's workers get minimum wage.....most waiters and waitresses don't.
-
in america you even have hamburger dialects.

its only gay if you want it too be ;D
-

they dont run back and forth and serve you, may i take you're order then some Mexican slaps it together and you walk away..When you dine out its the serves its called being waited on ....cheap fucks dont tip plain and simple

For most people, $200 a DAY isn't that bad. it's $50k a year. She should stop bitching.
Wiggs-
I used SSRIs for a short while for OCD. I felt like I was in a happy haze all day, I put on 30 pounds, and I became really lazy. Once I got off them, my edge returned, was horny 24/7, and I lost weight. I don't think ppl should use them unless they really need them.
-

And out of that $200/day, she has to split another 7.5% each to the bartender and the cabana boy. So for a full days worth of work, how much is she really getting?

Not happy? Do something else for a living.

lmao---the HAIC speaks the truth!

You saw it too huh?
Yes I've seen a few of them...it looks like some of the show is "manufactured" like the one where "Deebo" got hurt and was in a daze looked kinda fakey.
When I was visiting London a few years ago the bartender said something along the lines of "Where in the states are you from?" without me saying a word....she knew because I tipped when getting drinks.
When we were in France the waiters in the cafes (not our hotels though) were borderline rude and we wondered if that was because the tip was already included.
I always thought this photo of the IFBB Christmas Party was funny. DId yu guys see when Sean Rey's ex Sasha was on Rehab. She told the guy she was with she used to be a guy.
I saw that one. The guy was all over her and someone that worked there told his friends that she was a male. His friends were shocked and seemed angry and almost afraid of what the guy's reaction might be. They seemed more shocked when the guy decided he was alright w/it...in fact he looked as though he was falling in love already!
-
I always tip for good service.
-
The only reality show worth watching now is Cheerleaders on CMT.

It may be that anyone within 100 miles of Paris is an asshole.

I always tip heavy as long as I have the money-- especially if its a place that I freequent on a regular basis.
I have worked different jobs where tips are key so I know what its like to be stiffed-- However, she did recieve 200 bucks for carrying a bucket of ice and some bottles to a table-- so she needs to stfu...
-
Damn, Wiggs, I did not know you were one of dem dere grazy people. Please don't go medieval on our asses.

Haven't had the time to read this all but I live here in LV and some restaurants "require" (they add it automatically to your bill) a 20% tip for parties of 10(?) or more by notifying you of such on the menu.
Las Vegas is a Tipping Town and has become somewhat automatic and expected
15% no matter how shitty the service was.
20% if has been good enough.
Regarding these high priced, bottle service, clubs in which you pay $700 to $900 (and up) for the bottle of booze, mix, ice, and glassware .....
For a nice night at a nice nightclub on the Strip for a group of four or more, you should expect a bill of $1,200 .
I've spent time with a party of six (6) and that bill was a bit over $2,400 without the tip.
There were two (2) ladies that set us up and kept us supplied with ice, napkins and other cocktail necessities.
It appeared to me that they were providing similar service to three other tables, two of which consisted of three couples each and another which appeared to have 'visitors' paying homage to a Mafia Don on an individual basis, have a couple of shots of some high end liquor and get up and make way for the following greeting guido.
I would assume that each table had a bill similar to ours (the heavy-dude table bill had to be considerably higher as there were at least 8 open bottles on that layout), so I would be safe in assuming that those four (4) tables took in over $10,000 that evening (and many Strip night-clubers say that this is a very low estimate).
So, based on the 15% tip idea, those two cocktail servers expected to make $750 each that night. Good salary for one night's work but it also had to be split with the other room employees in accordance with that night-clubs tip-splitting policy.
The individual who paid our bill had no problem tipping 15%. Actually he tipped more like 20, but I've been told by many LV night clubbers that they never tip anything over a hundred no matter what the bill may be and they still manage to get inside and treated properly.
I gotta add that any club I've been to that offered bottle service, would not accept your table reservation without first obtaining your approved credit card and informing you that there would be a minimum charge regardless of how many bottles you ordered.
In the case of a Rehab "lounge" reservation (actually a reservation for a poolside tent), you were initially charged a fee of $1,200 to $2,400 and you had to use it or lose it. (As told to me by friends who have been attending Rehab on Summer Sundays these past few years.) Those charges to your credit card did not include the tip, which you had to add prior to getting your card back from one of the smiling attendants.
For real interesting shit ..... someone should tell us GetBiggers the factual stories about the night club door guys who decide who gets in and who stays out.
The IRS and the FBI are presently involved in that top income producing job. And that investigation has been going on for a good long time now.
If you come to LV looking for a damn good job .... tell the Interviewer that you have a great "standing in line" background.
Casino dealers are making 40% fewer tips this year and some valet operations are no longer in operation, but "line checkers" are living the life of luxury...... so I've been told.
In fact that guy in the next booth over who was receiving tons of respect on a rotating basis was probably the "front door greeter" in that next nightclub right down the Strip a bit.
Tipping in LV...... You ain't in Kansas no more, Dorthy!

Thanks Stunt. Always love your posts.

Thanks for the thanks, Devon, but I'd rather have a tip.
BTW, a couple of the biggest non-gambling tippers in this town happen to be Pete Grymkowski and OnlyMe.
If either of them sees a Las Vegas line consisting of what appears to be a bunch of hotel employees or valet attendants, they go to the front of that line doling out wads of cash for services rendered or expected to be rendered.
I won't say who, but I've seen one other well known person who lifts heavy things, tip a dealer $5,000 for dealing him a blackjack when he least expected it and had a substantial sum at risk.
And it gets pretty damn exciting to watch a Hollywood high roller place a bet for the dealers (that's a possible TIP in this here town) which happens to actually be more at stake than their yearly income.
Tipping in LV is somewhat different than tipping in any other US city.

Wiggs-
I used SSRIs for a short while for OCD. I felt like I was in a happy haze all day, I put on 30 pounds, and I became really lazy. Once I got off them, my edge returned, was horny 24/7, and I lost weight. I don't think ppl should use them unless they really need them.
At the time back in Nov 04, I really needed it. I remember after a couple months I felt better but I was numb. I didn't feel emotion like I used to. I was ok with that. Fast forward to a month ago, I felt it was time to get off of them. I gained around 30-40lbs since I had been on them and it was much more difficult to get the weight off. Now that I'm off my libido has returned, I feel more aggresive and outspoken and I experience emotion like one should. One more thing I hear is that it stifles your creative ability. Like you I think they should be used as a last resort. They are given out too easy.
-
I also gotta say that I have seen a naked lady tip the hotel/casino front doorman who hailed her a Taxi. She ran out of the hotel and into a waiting taxicab while the doorman opened the door on her behalf while holding out his other hand for the expected tip.
Where she pulled that $20 from still remains to be one of Las Vegas' greatest mysteries.
Only true Las Vegans know how she did it.

What do you do here?
-
Why anyone would spend more than $20 on a cabana, is beyond me. The amount of disgusting fake sluts in that place, is horrid. Plus, the surplus of guidos, doesn't help either.
I went there once when some guido buddies were in town, within 15 minutes I was bored stiff.
Translation: I couldn't get even one number.
;D

And it gets pretty damn exciting to watch a Hollywood high roller place a bet for the dealers (that's a possible TIP in this here town) which happens to actually be more at stake than their yearly income.
Tipping in LV is somewhat different than tipping in any other US city.
i work in the casino industry outside of the US. i think the recession in the US has caused a major drop in the amount of gratuities a dealer/slot attendant will receive. here, in Canada, on a good nite a slot attendant will still make anywhere from $250-400+ a nite (400+ being a very good nite), depending on how busy it is and "whos playing" on top of a very good wage as casinos here are gov't owned/ regulated.
its amazing but true- ONE heavily tipping patron having a good nite will be the the difference sometimes between a $150 split and a $400 split (on gaming floors here attendants pool their tips and split it amongst eachother equally).
i know people who work 16 hrs a week, show an income of 18k a year on paper, yet still clear at least 30k a year plus their wage- on 16 hrs a week. to break it down, with tips that attendant is making 55k a year on paper working 16 hrs a week- thats an average of $66 an hour to count out money to someone sitting at a slot machine.

Why anyone would spend more than $20 on a cabana, is beyond me. The amount of disgusting fake sluts in that place, is horrid. Plus, the surplus of guidos, doesn't help either.
I went there once when some guido buddies were in town, within 15 minutes I was bored stiff.
Translation: I couldn't get even one number.
;D
How much of that had to do with you being a bald tatted up midget with a chip on his shoulder ?

pwned.
as for tipping, i always try to tip 20 percentish or so. then again, i've never had 1000+ nights, just not my style (or my wallet's style).
but the big part of tipping is the location. at the better steakhouses here in chicago, i tip around 25%, mostly because i always cum in my pants about 3 times when the waiter (ha ha, no waitresses here at steakhouses, they don't know shit about good food) tells me about the steaks.
so, this cheesedick should've tipped her 20% at the rehab, because i'm guessing the place is understaffed and the overhead must be massive to keep that shit place going so they cut down on staff.
should she bitch about it? only if she can find something better for more money. if not, she should've given out a few blowjobs (i don't watch the show, but i'll assume she's good looking with fake tits).

Dude, that bitch still got $200 USD for just ONE cabana, who knows how many she was running total and how many hours she was working..she probably cleared a $1000 in tips that day... I agree about tipping well (if the service is good) but it is an added bonus, NOT expected nor should it be.
there's a reason it's called a TIP
-
It may be that is because anyone within 100 miles of Paris is an asshole.
fixed for you bro ;D

Isn't Rehab only open one or two days a week as a "club". The rest it's a normal hotel pool. Someone inform me of this...that's what a buddy told me about Vegas. He says those girls make bank on two days worth of tips than what say most people make in a month.

No one, I can't add to anything you've stated here but Slot Attendants have slowly disappeared here in Las Vegas now that the machines accept paper bills and pay off with paper slips that are cashed out in automatic machines.
I do occasionally see a Slot Host or a Slot Repairman on the casino floor but that is a very rare sight nowadays.
As per the income of dealers, you know far more about that than I do but Steve Wynn recently had a lawsuit because the dealers had to split their tips with the Pit Bosses.
Apparently the dealers were making more money each year than the Pit Boss salaries, so no dealer wanted to 'graduate' to a Pit Boss position.
I have no idea why Wynn didn't increase the Pit Boss salaries though and I forget the outcome of that income dispute. But it would'nt surprise me if they all lost money in that legal dispute.
Except for the lawyers of course!
Wiggs: I do as little as possible and that actually fills up my whole day and far into most evenings too. Sometimes when I get desparate and if the opportunity offers itself ..... I do movie stuff. Not XXX stuff though.
Crotch: People pay a lot for a Cabana simply because, "IT IS THERE!"
Someone once climbed a big mountain for that very same reason and many people rent Cabanas at any price because - "IT IS THERE!"
Maybe it can be best explained as being part of the JET SET of the LV Swimming Pool Crowd. It places one in a position somewhat higher than the typical swimming pool ref-raf they are forced to be surrounded by. And it provides a private place to piss in a beer can without having to walk a few yards to the closest men's room while others have to deal with the inconvenience of pissing in the pool.
It's a $200 to $400 convenience and each and everyone of them are usually reserved before the pool even opens up.
PS... Don't drink beer from a beer can while at Rehab.
Mr. Dump: Rehab is only on Summer Sundays but I think that some other party type function occurs on Summer Mondays too. Some refer to it as the Rehab - Rehab Party. Next year Summer Tuesdays just might be Rehab-Rehab-Rehab Parties. Vegas knows how to make things roll.

Wet Republic at MGM= Blows Rehab out of the water by a mile
Every time I have been to vegas during the summer time Wet Republic has been 100x better, with a much better crowd, no long ass lines and for half the price.
-
George! I'm surprised to hear that! I've never been to the Wet Republic because no one ever mentioned it as highly as you just did.
Can you provide us all with a better description, entertainment, price, etc.
"No long ass lines" means fewer bodies and fewer bodies usually means less excitement.
Can you elaborate on that?
Thanks

so good!! labor day and memorial day I'm always there!! This past labor day was sweet. Entire weekend they had great dj line ups and people were pretty cool as well. I freakin love wet republic.

I went to Wet Republic the last two Labor Days. Though my experience last year was better (because MGM didn't run the party, the promoters did) I can say without a doubt it's better than Rehab.
For one thing, the DJ's are awesome-- Much better than Rehab, prepaid tickets are much cheaper and you don't need to buy a cabana to have a sick time. They were selling lounge chairs for like 150 each for the day and without any drink purchase requirements ( no bottles, etc.). Plus, the bouncers were not sticklers for people walking around-- The second day I was in Vegas I ran into a friend of mine who had a Cabana and I walked right in and sat down with the 4 people I was with and got no hassle. I bought advance tickets on numerous occasions and never paid more than 70 bucks for the day ( but usually paid only 30).
The crowd is very diverse-- people from all over the world ( which is usually dictated depending on who the DJ is)-- all the fucking hott ass girls you can imagine and no drama at all. I went 7 times in 2 years and spent like 8 hours each time and I only saw one fight ( and it was between two guys who were on vacation together).
It's smaller than Rehab even though it was voted the number one pool party in vegas. I also have never waited more than 10 minutes to get into the place ( if you have a cabana/ chair reserved or your on a list you cut the whole line).I think part of the reason is that it doesnt have the name recognition that Rehab has.
The music is awesome in there if you like House Music-- They have a lineup that rivals the music conference in Miami or Ibiza with a wide variety of acts--Roger Sanchez, Boris, Deep Dish, Victor Calderone, Armin Van Helden, Chus and Cebbalos, Behoruz, Chris Lake, Deadmau5, Jonathan Peters has spun there a few times--etc.
The only thing is ( and this is because NY people fuck up everything, everywhere they go) if you want to party as in do drugs, they have a zero tolerance policy in there so you better be discrete and not go in there looking to get sloppy because there are cops everywhere.

i would only go to that rehab party, just to try to get a huge cannonball spalsh going and try to sunami one of those high roller cabanas ha ha
otheriwse those partys dont intrest me to much sure there are hot chicks at them but they all have some attitude and thre are jst alot of fake plastic people there

Spent the past week living in Italy, where we don't tip, nor are we harassed by waiters throughout our meals. I love it.

Ya I agree it's up there with WMC. Not quite as good as Nikki Beach but good. Soo many cops. They are so strict on partying at wet republic. Saw Behrouz, Calderone, Chus and Ceballos, Boris, Sharam at Drais was fun too

Here's a related Rehab story that might also answer a couple of other questions asked recently on the GetBig Board.
First: Are bodybuilders cheap:
A friend of ours (a ripped, lean, 6 foot bodybuilding dude) and his wife decided to throw a 21st birthday party for his visiting sister and chose Rehab as the ideal place to hold it. He left the invites up to his wife who has no idea of the value of money, so she and the birthday girl inititally invited about 20 birthday guests and reserved two of the better poolside cabanas.
At that time you had to submit your credit card before obtaining the reservation and you also had to commit your credit card to a certain minimum of alcoholic purchases which meant that you ended up paying for whatever you weren't drinking.... so that encouraged the wife to invite more guests to drink up all that booze they were going to end up paying for.
So some of the older neighbors were invited and on that Rehab Sunday, about 30 thirsty LV natives showed up to join in one birthday girl's celebration.
Margaritas were the order of the day and when the tab reached a bit over $4,000 the wife told the message bearer to "Give it to that ripped, lean, 6 ft guy over there with the Margarita in his hand!". So he got the tab and looked at it and smiled back at his wife and saw that she and everyone else was having a hell of a great time and handed over his credit card with instructions keep on serving "these here Mexican Margarita drinks!"
That proves that not all bodybuilders are cheap-skates.
A couple of Margaritas the lean, muscular guy with the empty wallet and with his credit card safely in the hands of the Casino credit department, he sat back on the poolside lounge chair and fell asleep. And his wife and a couple of birthday celebrants went off to the pool to play Blackjack because even though they did not know how to play the game, it was in the water and looked inviting and "only a $20 minimum to play the game!"
That proves that some bodybuilder wives are very dumb. But that ain't typical of each and every one of them even though she was from Chicago.
While the ladies were in the pool playing blackjack, the lean muscular guy fell asleep in that lounge chair by the pool while most of those who could still drink a Margarita or two were talking story about some far off battles they had participated in years ago.
That proves that old farts can still down loads of Margaritas at other peoples' expense. (Needless to say, this had nothing to do with a previous GetBig posting, but it is a fact nonetheless). I gotta admit that I did exceed my limit at that birthday celebration.
So while the girls are in the pool playing blackjack, some of us are drinking frozen Margaritas in Cabana shade, and the guy paying for all this is sleeping poolside in a lounge chair. But he wasn't sleeping there peacefully all by himself!
We must have counted at least thirty female Rehab celebrants kneel behind this sleeping bodybuilder while a friend of her's sanpped a picture. This went on for at least an hour until he finally woke up and volunteered to stand up with any of the ladies who wanted a photo with him. ANd that photo opportunity lasted for a good hour more - at least.
This proves that the ladies do indeed like lean muscle guys more than they appreciate the average pool-side bloke. Some were just too damn shy to ask for a picture while he was awake.
Now that he was awake, the waitress lady decided that it was a good time to let him know what his present bill amounted to!
He called me over and asked, "What's your credit card limit right now!? Pay this for me and I'll get ya back tomorrow! .... Thanks!"
The next day he drove me to the bank where we transferred over $6,000 to my credit card account.
This proves that he had a decent job that paid well enough to celebrate his sister's 21 birthday party without remorse of any kind.
Generous? Yep!
Trusted his wife entirely? Yep!
Proof that girls love ripped up muscle heads regardless of GetBig opinions? Yep!
Bodybuilder with a decent paying job? Yep!
Paid debts immediately as promised? Yep!
Loved to party? Yep!
Photogenic? Yep!
Could handle Tequila without passing out too very long? NOPE! Definitely NOT!
That's a pretty impressive report card for a bodybuilder at Rehab.
-----------------------------------------------------
Odilly, I like your style and your desire to perform a great cannonball but I can guarantee you'll fall in love at least three times at the Rehab Party. What, when, and where was your all time cannonball best? You are definitely going to impress the ladies, but I suggest you only start your performance later on in the afternoon when everyone will be more than ready to appreciate it.
George: Thanks for that Wet Republic info. I'll spread the word. That LV drug policy is now standard issue in just about everyplace in town. I don't know if that was the precise problem in one of the Planet Hollywood night clubs but they were in serious trouble a few months back.

Do I have to do everything around here? ;)
