Fear and Loathing

I spent the last six days in fabulous Las Vegas which is waaaaay too long to be in Las Vegas, especially if you like to drink, eat, and gamble. I also did really well in the Seneca Niagara Casino First Wednesday of The Month Tournament last Wednesday - thank you Geoff the funds have been transferred, I'm glad you are supporting a good cause. Anyway, this little win allowed me to realllllllly enjoy myself. Lots of bets made on baseball games, black jack sessions, poker sessions, and video poker sessions while sitting at a bar drinking while watching sports which I had bet on sessions. We saw Blue Man Group Friday night - which was AWESOME. I also spent a lot of time eating a lot of food.

Back to reality. There have been exactly 10,000 stories about the Bills leaving Buffalo this past week. And of course today in the Buffalo News Bucky Gleason states the "inevitable" like everyone else has for the past several weeks. I can't get myself to believe a team that has sold out every home game the last 3 years would leave, but I guess I am being naive it's all about the money, right?

On a more positive note check out Band of Horses. I listened to their new record, Everything All the Time, on the plane to and from Vegas about 9 times. Good stuff. You can download songs at their website. Also, here is a live performance they did on KEXP in Seattle at So Much Silence.

God bless Howard Stern.
