Along with three of my friends, we headed for the Smith Center in downtown Las Vegas last week to see a friend perform in Myron’s Room. That’s the room where just about every local entertainer in our Village has performed at least once.. The first entertainer to open the room 10 years ago, and its […]
We (there was four of us) were part of a herd of media types who were ushered inside a new clubhouse, after spending a couple of minutes (actually nearly an hour of imbibing in our favorite beverage) as we waited to see what was new at the Strat. First off the bat there was one […]

Took in the newest edition of Legends in Concert at the new Tropicana Las Vegas the other evening. Wow what a great edition to its history. In 1983 I met with a friend who introduced me to John Stuart, the founder of the Legends show. He was going to hire me to do the publicity […]

Well, gang, it finally happened to me. My computer crashed on me while I was on vacation. I truly thought I was safe because I had an outside backup hard drive—touted as the best. Well, let me tell you it wasn’t. I lost all my email contacts (fortunately I had printed it out and have […]
This is terrific news, as I predicted a long time ago when this particular show opened that it would be a big hit in our Little Village. Well, gang, leave your inhibitions at the door… at Mandalay Bay that is! Vegas synergies have aligned and for one-night only, a Strip preview of the much talked […]
Everyone thinks auto racing is a guy’s game. A few women have made it to the top echelon of the game, but not too many. You can name them, just about, on one hand: Janet Guthrie, Sarah Fisher, Shirley Muldowney, Shawna Robinson and Danica Patrick are a few that come to mind. Believe it or […]
