I regret to inform you all that I will be unable to attend Vegas 2006 due to high airfare ($500+) costs.  I thought I could use air miles to pay for it but I don't have enough for a round trip.

Unfortunately I could not justify spending $1000+ for a 2 night/1.5 day weekend in Vegas with a bunch of bucketheads.

I still have to take my wife on at least 2 vacations this year (one to Europe) which will consume my vacation budget for the year.

I paid a little more for my ticket this
time, so I could get non stop flights.
Last time I went, I flew US Airways with
one stop over each way for $333 round trip. Natty found
the rooms for $99 a night. I didn't have
to spend all that much last time. You should
be able to do it all for $800. Shop around
for travel packages and stuff before you backout.

Why the fuck are y'all getting rooms? I dont charge anything and I even provide air beds, pillow and blanket.

Heres a little story while I was out...

Remember that hundred dollars I had saved? Well, one night I was so bored that I decided to take the bill and risk it on gambling. If I lost It I would be explaining it to y'all. But I tripled it! I spent 14 hours at the Palms, Hit the jackpot with ony one penny bet (if it were only a dollar I bet) I won $250 with one single penny. Now I have about $360. I went to three card poker and ended up hitting a $300 three of a kind. By this time I'm kinda lit from the beer so I cant remember how much I had...over 5 I'm sure. Played more slots and craps with some rappers from LA. I was trashed when I left. Woke up the next day with $306 next to my bed!!! Since then I decided to spend a bill on stuff I needed but I have $200 saved for us now. I'm so proud I doubled that shit!!! Dont worry, I'm not going to risk the 2 bills.

I can buy air beds for $9.99 + pillow $5 + blanket $5. Y'all can save nearly $300 staying with me.

As far as the beer and food goes, theres only two things that matter right now. 1, My car, 2, y'all. Dont worry about beer money and, dont hold me to this, but I should have enough comps at the Palms to get us some food comps. I'll ask around work to see if anyone has any connections at the Palms to get more.

Dont worry about money, like I said....My car and y'all. If you can make it to Vegas I'll do my best to make sure NO ONE will go without!!! You have my word! I want to kinda make this a "thank you for being there" party. I want to be a provider!

All is not lost.  I am working on my options right now.  Got lucky this weekend and came into some money I was not expecting.  Updates will be forthcoming.

I'm down to crash at Robert's again. It'll be like a fucking frat house again. I'll cook, once again. We'll get exotic. Everyone like seafood?
