Deodorant Do Too (II, 2)
 

As some of you know, I just can't seem to get enough of Vegas in July, and I'll be there on July 11 and 12th again. I'm working at an event, so I'd would be up for dinner on Friday and then dinner and whatever on Saturday. I'd love to meet up with any of the lovely locals who might be around and anyone else I can convince to brave the heat. Come one, come all, and watch the glow-in-the-dark Canadian melt. :)

Location: The Tillerman - 2245 E. Flamingo Road.
Time: 8:00 pm

In for dinner and/or an appearance on Cops:
BAMAT
MrpAlert
YEGcited
trekwars2000

Regrets:
FortFun
izzik
stockmanjr
spartacus (who also wins the Cliff Claven award for trivia on this thread) :)

Paying my respects to TED that weekend, or I'd be there for sure. ;)

ack, i'll miss you by a week!

Oh, duh. I forgot this was the TED burial weekend. Sorry Lucky! Well, if anyone can't find a cheap ticket to ORD, come to LAS!

What kind of deodorant is required?? I'll be sure to send some since I can't be there :-)
Cheers
Howie

WOOHOO!!!! I WILL ACTUALLY BE IN VEGAS THAT WEEKEND!!!!! I was just telling Mr. debua1k that we REALLY need to get together with some FTers soon!!!

Sounds smelly :) Count on me to show up - deoderant in hand.

Unfortunately, you micounted the order of this odor. This is required to be classified as Deoderant Do #3. :)

Is the raw food cafe still open? That might make an appropriate dining destination.

Last night's Cops once again highlighted the transvestite prostitute activity in the shopping center of last year's DeoDo.

Six took stick, six took spray.

If you're younger than about 30 that will make absolutely no sense to you.

Sounds like a great reason to visit the family, but will be in the woods of Minnesota until the 12th.:(

I'm not under 30 (by a long shot) and I don't get it. Maybe it's a Canadian thing. And hey...can you even compare the woods to the steaming cement of LAS? :)

Way back when there was a Right Guard commercial about a jury doing deliberations. They were stuck and could not reach a verdict and it was hot and muggy. The bailiff brought in a tray of product, both spray cans and stick. The bailiff then announced that six jurors had taken the stick and six had taken the spray cans! LOL Maybe that commercial didn't run in Canada?

Well, since my mom sold the house I grew up in with a very nice pool and moved into her 'retirement' home across town I no longer look forward to summer visits. Driving in Las Vegas becomes more treacherous every year. One reason mom moved was they widened her street and drunks kept plowing into cars parked on the curb and her husband finally said it was time to go. That was four years ago. She is now in a nice little semi-gated community and the only thing that has happened was a stray bullet came ricocheting through the door and wall last year! Metro (the fine Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Dept., not the 'Las Vegas Police' of CSI) has no idea where the shot came from. When she told me the story it reminded me of my one New Years' Eve in Tijuana when they seem to like to shoot into the air.:eek:

Just saw "Love" at the Mirage on Saturday -- highly recommended, even if you aren't a huge Beatles fan. ^

Bad boys, bad boys, whatchagonnado? Whatchagonnado when they come for you?

I started a list at the top...a small but dynamic group, I'd say. If anyone else would like to see if they can make an appearance on Cops a la Meet the Parents, speak up!

Could one of the lovely locals suggest a spot for dinner? And possibly make reservations if we need them? I'm thinking Saturday..and whatever time works best for people is fine by me. I should be done by 5:30 ish.

I'm not local anymore so I can't book it for you, but I HIGHLY recommend the Tillerman Restaurant near Flamingo and Eastern, very convenient to the Strip. I started eating there when I was in college and always stop by when I am home. I took my mom and her husband there recently for their anniversary and it is still a fantastic spot. For larger groups they have a couple of party rooms but can do smaller groups in the dining room. The atmosphere is soft and the food is fantastic. Prices are competetive and portion sizes are good. Don't wear your shorts and T-shirts here. They do have online reservation bookings. See http://www.tillerman.com/

Hi, Bammy and fellow FTers! Put me down as a very likely for Saturday :) I'm going to try and get on the flight tomorrow night (Friday) and be in smokin hot Vegas. I'm gonna bring some extra Deo to prevent excessive B.O.! :D

If you are up at 530 am, trekwars2000 and I will be attending the grand opening of the new co club at las. As for the tillerman, I have heard good things. I have never eaten there.

So - why is it that you come to las and it finally gets humid and smelly?

I'll be in LAS July 23rd from about 1pm to 11pm. Anyone around then? I'm flying Delta, is CO close enough to be able to use the PC? The last time I was in LAS I got to the airport about 3 hours early thinking there was a WC, PC or CR... what a boring 3 hours!!

Pc is in the same terminal as dl. Actually right above the dl gates but on the ua side of the wing. I will pm you my #. See trekwars200's review in the co forum - should be near top of the page.

Debua1k can't come tonight, but she sends hugs to all. Trekwars2000 will be taking yer place. Does Tillerman at 8pm work for everyone?

I thought the Do was a Don't, so I'm glad that dinner is still on. YEG is in town, so I will send him a text and let him know. As far as I know, it will just be the four of us unless someone else is a last minute attendee. Tillerman at 8:00 sounds good. I'm looking forward to relaxing after an insane week!

Do we need reservations?

You definately need reservations... Tillerman ROX!!!

Sorry I'll miss it, though I did have a really great dinner at Culvers, with family, in Mukwonago Wisconsin.

Thanks to MrpAlert and YEGcited for the great dinner company last night. It was way more fun than my week of room service. Spartacus, you were right...the Tillerman was very cool.

And my bad...this was DeoDoo III (albeit a little one). The company more than made up for it, so thanks again, fellas.

I'm on my way home and just took my second bump in 2 weeks trying to get home from DEN. :) :)

No, thank you, Bammy and MrpAlert, for being so patient and waiting for me at dinner. Vegas may be great for many things but transportation that night wasn't one of them, for me anyways. I had a great time with you all at the do and, yes, Bammy, it definitely had the requisite amount of numbers and fun for it to be totally legit :)

Also, Bammy, I'm glad my wishes to you in my final text message came to fruition. Hmm, maybe you stole my luck because I got creamed at the tables later that day, ouch!

MrpAlert, now when I go to the US, I think I'll have an uncontrolable desire to rent a car from Avis so I can get points for a FFP that I have no desire belonging too lol.

Food was good, interior of the restaurant was so cool, and that salad will from now on be known as (to steal a line from Seinfeld) "The Big Salad" :D

Magically, debua1k and I met at O'Hare Sunday night!

We missed you guys! We were definitely missing the UA1Ks and were short a Marty or two. :)

It was another great dinner. Hopefully, we will have the full contingent around for DO #4. My, that food was amazing... Thanks for the drinks BoyAreMyArmsTired and for the company, YEGcited. Next time in HNL again?

The new President's Club is very nice. The lady at the front desk asked me how long I was in town and I said I flew in this morning. She said "Oh, you're doing a mileage run". :eek: I didn't know that airline employees knew that term! LOL
