So now there’s a leaked photo of Rihanna, which, if real, shows that she was the victim of some kind of assault. This makes me sick. I agree with Broadsheet that to even link to it is wrong. All I want to say is that this is disturbing to me on many levels, not the…

Forbes has named Las Vegas the most vacant city in America. (Cue: Obvious double-entendre here.) Most vacant apartments, homes and commercial buildings. Was that a tuft of tumbleweeds that just wafted by on the empty streets of Sin City? Hmmm … Isn’t this the way that cities like Detroit start their downward spiral? That’s it,…
Sorry it’s late, my lovelies …
The final in my trilogy of outrage is the whole President Obama and Vegas thing. In a town hall meeting in Indiana last week the president made a comment that companies that are getting bailed out by the taxpayers should not be taking trips to Las Vegas. Then all hell broke loose! On the one…
Okay, let’s talk about the Rihanna and Chris Brown thing. Obviously, nobody knows for sure what happened. Did R&B artist Chris Brown hit singer Rihanna in a fight before the grammys?

I find it interesting that Stations Casinos makes this national list of companies that are or will be declaring bankruptcy and shutting their doors this year. (Others mentioned include Rite Aid, Chrysler and Dollar car rental.) And it’s interesting to me that the national article refers to Las Vegas’ market as being hit by a…
