Oh, and to Charlie. He's my newest bestest friend.

Yeah, but after Monday night he was the first to pass out.

He woke up, laughed it off, and began quietly plotting his revenge.

Aaron's still looking over his shoulder.

I gotta give this guy serious props, though. He parties!!

It is only $8 cab fair from the Bellagio to the MGM. Better planning would have allowed me to be able to contribute more on the several trips made back and forth monday night.

Follow-on lesson:

If you have a group of 10 or so, at least, you can all throw in 8 bucks and ride a limo for a flat fee, plus a driver tip.

We rolled up on the Palms in style.

Shoot, didn't know it was at the Palms where you were going. My cousin is bartender at the Ghost Bar, and doubles at the Playboy.

I learned that the low pay of a regional pilot can be suplemented by adding notches to my belt.

this was discovered as **coughrexcough proceded to count aloud his "poon count" incuding names and locations

talking doesn't constitute hitting, no....but that's what the other girls (and a few of the guys) were telling me....

however, you might not remember some of your actions on Sunday night...hehehe...it was flippin' funny, in my eyes, nothing but humor and nothing to worry about either!

I learned that you should drink orange juice all day (even if it means with vodka), so you have some vitamin C. I definitely have a cold/flu now, which I think was coming on before the trip. Vegas just made things worse.

I also learned that we have an amazing community of not only fellow aviators, but also friends. You are all outstanding people! I had some great conversations with many of you, and know you'll be lifelong friends.

Hahaha alright, so i think we covered all the GF's on this forum.

It was one lady, well, that was new to the group. It wasnt Kristie, Jenn, you, Martin's girl, or Ethans. Nor was it Tony's chicks, or any chicks that made it around the group, it still however was someone's gf.


Oooohh....the mystery.

Don't leave early! Sorry for that, it wasn't anyone's fault.

It's fun to tie people up! Doug, Tony, Kristie, Omar... Who's next??

Don't shake MikeD's hand. He will break it off!

Don't tell people that you have sisters... They may bug you constantly for a phone number!

ALWAYS TIP CABBIES!! Otherwise, they may throw your change in your face and almost get assaulted.

Glitter does not taste bad! At least not on Kristie!

And the best lesson ever...
BOOBIES ARE FUN!!!
