If you get a chance, there's a guy by the name of Mac King who does a
show at Harrah's that's a magic/comedy show that has the best bang for
your buck in Vegas for entertainment. He only does a single matinee a
day and he is absolutely hilarious. We've seen him twice and I
wouldn't mind seeing him again, even though it's the same stuff, he's
that good. $19 a head.

We get over there twice a year - the DH seems to have a Gathering of
Lawyers over there about once a year and we go *every* New Year's Day
to watch the bowl games in the sports book and have the place just
about all to ourselves. There's a gang of us who have been doing this
for some years now, go over on New Year's Day and come back a day or
two later, depending on what day of the week New Year's falls. It's a
hoot. The casino/hotel where we stay also has a really good spa
