[Squishy] Las Vegas - options

Mon, 29 Apr 2002 12:29:15 -0700

Demanding, demanding. People acutally expected me to _read_ Jonathan's email, which somehow I didn't see... or maybe just ignored
;-)

Ok, memorial day it is.

I _may_ have a conflict--a friends Vegas bachelor party (can't remember which weekend), but if there is overlap, it will make for a
most excellent and wild weekend.

Count me in for Bellagio.

Let's get a final count so that we can arrange rooms, flights, show tickets, and party favors.

As for flights--suggestions:

1. SWA has a 2-for-1 sale going on right now.
2. AmericaWest tends to be very cheap
3. Reno and National also are cheap to Vague-ass
