Default Going to Vegas BABY!!!!

Well the wife and I are heading down to Vegas next week sans kids. She asked me what we we're going to do.

Me: "Well Dear, we could always call up Tony and check out his supercharged shark!"

Her: "Who's Tony? And what's a Shark?"

M: "He's one of the people on rennlist."

H: "????"

M: "You know... for the Porsche!"

H: silence............

M: "Well we could always check out some of the shows!"

H: silence..... rolling eyes....... walks away......

M: Go back to garage and work on car!

Sorry Tony.

I have to be in VEGAS for a company meeting the 2/27-3/5.

Tony - I'll be GLAD to take Andy's ride and send him details of it!

Tell her "hey, it could be worse. Instead of talking Porsche stuff with Tony I could be drunk in the strip clubs and lose all my money on lap dances"

Or hell, come to think of it tell her your going to Tony's - she won't want to go of course, just give her money for the spa or shopping - then go to the strip club, get drunk then lose all your money on lap dances . . . . .

I'm a chick but I know the game.

Actually, now that I think of it... I did offer the spa thing to her. She turned me down. Oh well... Some other day perhaps.

She's not a Spa girl... She's Japanese... they don't do much of that in Japan... well for the women at least. Her loss, my gain! Except for this trip, of course.

LOL!

Maybe we should get our wives (and kids) together, then you and I can go do car stuff. I'm sure that'll fly!

Rent an SUV then visit Jean Dry Lake and pretend your filming a car commercial. Good times!

Have you been to Hoover Dam? Not far at all and well worth the trip. When we drove the 928 home across the country, we stopped in Vegas and went to the Dam. Really cool.
