Almost.

One more thing to love about Vegas! LOL
Ashamed to say? Why? I laughed guilt-free at the incident. If some incompetent architects designed a giant death ray by accident and it burned some poor dude's hair, of all the people involved, I don't think you're the one that should feel ashamed.

Is it just me, or do the lanes seem a bit narrow? It should be a real thrill for people when a semi decides to pass them on this.

Cosmopolitan will be launching their TV ad campaign this Sunday during the Madmen Finale.. Hopefully it's nothing like Aria's "Words will fail you"

Looks like the bridge opened to some people today and it looks great but is it just me or is that railing for pedestrians awfully short for such a bridge? Wouldn't you think they would have a better protection/deterrent system to get people to not fall over/jump off?

All I have to say is WOW, that bridge is freaking amazing now that it's finished!

I've seen it several times under construction the last 2 years, but damn, it's much more amazing now that it's complete!
