Looks like the longer range forecast is for the mid-60's during the day and down to around the low 40's during the night. Cool for Vegas but a lot better than what I have been experiencing with all this global warming.

Re: SHOT SHOW ROLL CALL
Yesterday I sold 40 hamburgers, 4 dozen hotdogs and nearly 12 cases of burritos. Once the sun went down, it seems that there are a lot of illegal type people on the street handing out these business cards with females and phone numbers on them. (Collect like trading cards!) These people really flocked to my 2 for 1 burrito sale, and did not seem to mind the wait for the small microwave I keep in the van.
With the profits I made, I then proceeded to a casino where I placed all but a small amount (reserved for beverages) on the Arizona-now /St. Louis-then Cardinals. I looked later and saw that they had won. Kind of fascinating to see a team win that just seems to play around during the regular season and then comes alive around Christmas. Now flush with cash, I decided to live it up, and I began buying TKO shooters (1 oz ouzo, 1 oz tequila, 1 oz everclear-mixed) for all the Vets at that particular bar. I met 2 Seals and 4 members of Marine Recon, none of which could say any corresponding number to their unit for although they had been out for sometime, there is OPSEC to consider. Two of the recon guys had been friends since they met in boot camp in Illinois. This got boring quick because the stories they told sounded a lot like a certain series I had watched on HBO. So, I looked around and found what looked like a large Japanese party hanging around 4 tables. I ordered more TKO shooters for them and then tried to get acquainted. As my luck would have it, their English was not that good but there was a lot of laughing and I did talk them into a little contest where they tried to dance the dances of the Peanuts characters. One guy - I think his name was Damoharrogatti- perfected the Linus dance. For his win, I gave him the entire collection of trading cards I had accumulated last night. As the entire crowd gathered around him to enjoy the pictures, I made my escape.
I do not remember all that happened after the 8th round, but when I woke up this morning I found myself wrapped up in a poncho liner under some bushes in someone's back yard. I wanted to laugh when I saw two little boys sitting on the floor and laughing at me from behind a sliding glass door about 10 -feet away, but I knew the parents might want to see what they were laughing at pretty soon so I decided to E&E back to the van. The wierd part was that I was in possession of two dead pigeons in a garbage bag.

Re: SHOT SHOW ROLL CALL
Well, I ended up hanging out with the Japanese again. They seemed to have like the card collection I handed over to them. Apparently, they are part of a large family that owns a business in Japan called Massugu Ue Fisheries. Last night I simply purchased some tortillas and then spread refried beans on them, and then smothered them with jalapenos. I would roll them up and microwave them and then put a toothpick in it with a little cut out picture of a tv talk show host on it.
I sold them as Jap-o-leno's and my new Japanese friends loved the idea.
They came back after dark and took me with them to a sushi bar called Nobu's. Fantastic chow, you ought to visit it when you get here.

Re: SHOT SHOW ROLL CALL
Today I will only be open from noon to 5 PM. I will be parked near the Hard Rock parking lot, 4455 Paradise Road. Mention the Hide and get a free breath mint.
And this will be my last day as some rather interesting developments took place last night.
------------------------
I must apologize to Hippyback and Skipper KickButt as I will no longer be in attendance at SHOT. I had hoped to share a pint.
My Japanese friends and I have worked out a deal, and tomorrow they are flying me (and my van!) to Japan to experiment with my idea as a potential roach coach around the docks for their fishing industry. The hold up all along was getting them to agree to ship the van. My bride was unhappy at first, but once I told her of the potential profit margin and that it would only be for a month, she agreed.
The van was an integral part to my plan and there was no way I was going to leave it here alone in Las Vegas. It has been in my family for a very long time and holds some great memories of family campouts and reunions… eating refried beans and haggis all day, and then my uncles Pedro and Broehain telling us stories about our Mexican and Scottish heritage.
I will be living in the van near their docks in the northern town of Kirikiri. I’ll try to posts some pictures of their catch. I am thinking Killer Whale and salsa may become big in Japan.
