Las Vegas

So after a few days in Las Vegas there are a couple of things that I have noticed.  It's easy to see why it got the label 'sin city'.  It is an artificial, neon lit paradise for all those seeking to indulge the human senses.  Advertisements for all kinds of shows and casinos are everywhere, and slot machines seem to be an almost universal feature of every business.  There are no naturally occurring plants in the city, only palm trees and other similarly imported exotic plants.  Outside of the Las Vegas strip where all the big hotels and casinos are, the city seems to be spread out and run down.  It is easy to imagine mob violence and death stalking the empty lots.

However, this trip so far has not been without its little amusements for me.  Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you a sample of the crazy advertising you can see in Vegas!

If it's in stock, they have it.  But if not, we don't.


Care for a tattoo?  I dont, but if you want one, you can have one while you wait.  Presumably rather than leaving your skin there while you continue shopping.

So life goes on in crazy Vegas.
