Las Vegas • Sunday • 27 May 2007 • 7:00 PM • Spontaneity Do • Makino Sushi Summerlin

It seems the Las Vegas FTers can't go a week without meeting and eating! So, let's do it again...

Makino Summerlin
1225 S. Ft. Apache
Fort Apache and Charleston
7:00 PM

Yes, it's the heads up time is short, short, short; but our appetites for food, friends and FT banter are big, big, big. It's not just sushi, there's something for everyone!

Post dinner Red Rock Casino bingo is optional.

Remember...this is the new Summerlin location.

I [we?] will also be with you in Aloha spirit (eight HNL FTers plus Mr& Mrs kauakau, once we get a 'talk story' about your recent LAS DOs!)

Why is it that whenever we talk to fun-lovin' Hawaiians, eventually the talk turns to hi jinks in LAS? Happens more than I'd have thunk!

Right on! My Lyman House tour guide told us more Hawai'ians live in Las Vegas than in Hawai'i...don't know if that true, but there's definitely a strong connection! At work, there are more Hawai'ian transplants than Californian transplants. L&L Hawai'ian BBQs are everywhere.

Funny you should say that...just a few weeks back, I was visiting the nearby Goodwill store with a FlyerTalker. She wanted to stock up on paperbacks for her upcoming MR. I found a great Yves Saint Laurent sportcoat, only $20 minus a 40% discount. Only problem is it was a 38, and I haven't been a 38 since high school.

She a very beautiful woman (the pharmacist, not TravelScholar) and I've asked her out, in the past. (and she's turned me down.) Anyway, she starts with telling me about about a multi-level marketing scheme involving tele-communications. I told her that MrpAlert (who's name you won't forget) warned me all that stuff is free. I proceeded to walk her down to the web cams and explained how they work. I'm bit confused why a $100K+/year pharmacist would get involved in such nonsense. And she is the second pharmacist who has tried pulling me into a multi-level marketing scheme. But here's where the Salvation Army comes into play: After an hour of multi-level marketing talk, I tell I have to visit the ice cream aisle. She asks about my cholesterol level. I tell her I've been prescribed statins, but don't take them because I'm already a walking pharmaceutical depository and my liver can't take more. She then started with a one hour talk about how Jesus Christ is her saviour and could be my saviour too. If I accept him as my saviour, I can cut back on my pharmaceuticals. No, thanks. And, though she is extraordinarily beautiful, I just don't think she's the woman for me.

My apologies to the OP for this off-topic rambling.

Excellent story; great post! Nothing rambling or OT about it! Just another reason why I love hanging out on the Las Vegas Forum, and visit LV so often!!!

Can't wait to hang out with you all again, Sunnyhere, MrpAlert, debUA1k, and the rest of you fun-loving Vegan locals and visitors! (I'm working on tix for your dates, Aceman)!

And see you Tuesday in Waikiki, BiziBB!!!

Uh-oh I know exactly which MLM she is in. Those people are relentless. Speaking of relentless, I certainly hope that my favorite patron from Makino at the Outlet Mall graces us with her prescence - she put on quite a "show" for us last time

Since only 4 people will get the aforementioned joke, please come join us tonight for some wonderful memories! Transportation is available for visitors and locals alike.
