Nice pics Joe!  Sorry we missed you.  I'm just getting around to checking them out now because we were in Las Vegas last week.  I took Sally to see the Hoover Dam and Grand Canyon/Painted Desert too.  Heck, I even wanted to go down to SD to meet Ray but what was I supposed to do - look for Abe Lincoln walking around with a 5' Filipina? )))

"Las Vegas Man" (Bongorno)1998

"He lives in Cleveland, a common man
He works devising computer plans
With lack of hair and belly of beer
But when he steps on the plane out west
A transformation makes him the best
Women in first class whisper and hear:

[Chorus]
Who is that Man? Oh what a hunk!
Now he’s a star, once he was a punk
Who is this dude with the deep and dark tan
He is the cat known as Las Vegas Man

Landing in Vegas, change is complete
Of course he’s got new shine on his feet
Casino time – he steps off his Lear
His driver drops him where the stars all play
The doorman knows him – he knows the way
The doors fly open, the ladies cheer:

[Chorus]

Ready for action, pour him some juice
He’ll take a lady, snowman and deuce
Casino owners will shake in fear
Let’s check the cards now, he’s having fun
Well, yes – of course – he’s got 21
In all of Vegas he has no peer

[Chorus]

He’ll play all night long, no time for rest
No food to live on – it’s just a pest
When the dealer shuffles his fans all jeer
To call this a game would be a big joke
Again, the bank will call itself broke
His fans will now have to shed a tear"

"Las Vegas Girl" (Jimbo)2002

She lives in Westford, a simple gal
She works at seating lunchtime pals
With plain black hair and nothing bold
But when she steps on the plane out west
A transformation makes her the best
Men in first class whisper, I'm told:

[Chorus]
Who is that Girl?  Oh what a doll!
Now she's a star, no flower on the wall
Who is this babe that shines like a pearl
She's the lady known as Las Vegas Girl

Landing in Vegas, change is complete
Of course she's got red pumps on her feet
Casino time - she straightens her skirt
Her driver drops her where the stars all play
The doorman bows and shows her the way
The doors fly open, the men all flirt:

[Chorus]

Ready for action, give her a seat
At the roulette wheel she can't be beat
Come on honey place a bet for us
Spin the ball now, round and round
All eyes are open, smiles abound
And when it stops, she's got the touch

[Chorus]

She'll play all night long, win a few bucks
No drinks for her - bad for the luck
When the chips cash in she's happy with life
Her husband took care to always check in
This simple Filipina amazing him
He wonders now, "Was that really my wife?"

Hi Joe,

How did I like Las Vegas?  Oh! I love the place.  The lights at night from the top of the Eiffel tower was fascinating and the shows are everywhere.
When I arrived at the airport of LV my eyes was wide open when I saw the slot machines. The slot machines and casinos are every corner in Vegas.  When arrived in Paris Las Vegas Hotel my eyes was kept on rolling don't know where to start and what to play.  But I love to watch the Roulette game very interesting but risky game.

Now I miss those noise of the slot machines and the fountain show. ;o)

Hey Joe,

Nice photos! Only the Rhode Island Ripper, Teddy "The  Chappaquicddick Floater" Kennedy, and Jimbo, are missing. Did you at least get your feet wet? ;o))How about some Teddy jokes:

Q. What did Ted Kennedy say to Mary Jo Koepkne when she asked him if he was going to leave his wife and live with her?

A. "We'll cross that bridge when we come to it."

Q. What does the sign in front of Ted Kennedy's house say?

A. Trespassers will be violated.

Q. Why did it take Ted so long to report the drowning at    Chappaquicddick?

A. It took him several dives to get Mary Jo's clothes back on.

Q. What was Bill Clinton's biggest mistake?

A. Not getting Ted Kennedy drive all of the women home.

Thanks Dave,
    As for Jimbo,the ripper,and myself I think we had
    good intenisons of getting together.
    I thought it was a missed phone call to Jimbo's place.
    We had plans to drive to Rhode Island to visit Kevin,
    I was all for it. I made a tough decision not to
    recall Jimbo because of my daughter was having so
    much fun with her cousins. I guess you like pictures
    I posted on the net and thanks for the reply.
    It kind of amazing about Teddy driving off the dike
    bridge. The picture that I took was a bridge with
    railings.For a long time the bridge had no side railings.The bridge actually leads to a beach so go figure
on that one. As a teenager I was raise on Martha's Vineyard,
and I Also lived there for two years with my wife and kids.
I left Boston and Teddy back in 1989 as a bitter man, I did
not like the way my wife got treated back there with my
family members. And it took me awhile to get over that
situation. I stood my ground back there, but I made the
decision to move back to Seattle. Alot of time has been lost
for me and my family. But I always stand by in what I believe in.

Hey Joe,

I don't think the world is ready for the three of you together in the same place! LOL I can just picture Kevin running around the bridge yelling "I smell something rotten!" =8oO I had Stephen's number on speed dial, just in case you guys called me from jail. )))
