Paris Hilton: police claim cocaine fell like snow

The police report for Paris Hilton has been released. We learn that her middle name is Whitney and she is defendant #2756392.

Perhaps the single strangest description in [...]

Cy Waits for plaster of Paris to crumble

The giant heroic statue Vegas nightclubs have erected to Paris Hilton seems to have a soft white powder for feet. Paris Hilton has been naughty in Vegas  for many, many years now. The first time I saw her where she should not be was a New Year’s weekend, Guns & Roses concert at the Hard [...]

EDITORIAL: ignoramus is Republican nominee for Senate

I usually don’t get involved in politics. It is a sign of just how disturbing Republican nominee Sharon Angle is in her beliefs that I feel the need to be shocked into writing about her candidacy.  She can’t win in Nevada, but it still amazes me she got this far. I get that she wants [...]

Bankers: the next owners of Vegas?

It is clear that the new power players in Vegas are no longer swaggering casino executives but bankers. Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas is about to be opened under the ownership of Deutsche Bank after the original developer defaulted. And, there are many other resorts that exist at the mercy of their bankers. It will be [...]
