    I watched The Hangover last weekend, will probably watch Fools Rush In this week, and maybe Swingers.


    On a somewhat "I'm a stupid ass" move, I watched "Flight" this past weekend. Probably not a great movie to watch when I am getting on a plane soon.

    I watched Flight last weekend too, but I think the chance of getting a Drunk Coked up pilot can't be more than 50% and I am going to Vegas to Gamble anyway.

    Is it weird that I watch the traffic cameras and look at Google Earth to Chrome up and down the strip? When I'm really Vegas sick this helps some. :eek: :eek:

    Theres an app called My City Way- Las Vegas for my phone that has live web cams on it. A ton of them. I get on it quite a bit and watch them.

    My appletv has a live cam of the Vegas sign, I have sat for hours watching people walk up to it, get a picture, repeat! I have a Vegas infatuation, especially as each trip gets closer. If it has anything at all to do with Vegas, I will watch it!

    I even do a keyword "Las Vegas" search on directv, a couple months before the trip, and record anything that even slightly relates to LV. You have no idea how many times I have seen Rachel Ray tours Vegas, or Mac vs food at the Sahara!

    I start looking at trip pricing as soon as I return from Vegas. My DVR is set to record all Vegas shows. I need to look at those web cams. I am checking this board all the time. I follow a ton if Vegas people/things on twitter. Add to my next bankroll every other week for the next trip. Seriously sometimes when I want to buy something I think about what I could do with the money in Vegas instead of buying the product. I am always prepping for the next trip. Oh I got it bad. Oh and I get in the Vegas mind about a week before I leave for the trip.

    Awesome ideas. I'm picking up a copy of Vegas Vacation to watch on the plane trip out there. Hope this new laptop battery holds up. lol
