Clearly O.J. hasn’t sneezed today
Or else there would be mass media coverage of it.
No, today is a nice slow day here in Vegas. Which leads me to a letter to the editor appearing in the Arizona Republic. This one was a response to the last one I linked here about how horrible Vegas is.
This one ponders, “If Vegas is so horrible, why can’t Phoenix bring people to itself as a major tourist attraction?” I would answer that question with this: people come to Vegas because Vegas bids them come.
People don’t come to Vegas because the hotels are nicer than anywhere in America. They don’t come to Vegas because the food is better than anywhere in America. They don’t come to Vegas to gamble. They don’t come to Vegas to whore it up. They don’t come to Vegas for strip clubs. All of these things can be had around the nation in much better climates. No, people come to Vegas because Vegas builds an atmosphere and maintains it at a heavy cost. Vegas is a city of perception engineering. We are the best cheapest imitation in the world and our goal is to bombard you with so many smoke and mirror acts that from the time you arrive to the time you leave you scarcely know what’s what.
But you’re pretty sure you enjoyed it. The money quote from this letter to the editor?
Waste Dump Of Debauchery
