To Vegas, or not to Vegas? That is the question.

I've been contemplating going to Las Vegas for Halloween. Where else but Sin City to celebrate All Hallows Eve?

This trip will be a classic affirmation of everything right and true in the national character. A gross physical salute to the fantastic possibilities of life in this country. But only for those with true grit.

And we are chock full of that, man.

Spirit Airlines has some $200 round-trip flights, I've got a comp'ed room thru the end of December at Stratosphere and another at Monte Carlo.

Classic strategy. There is a certain bent appeal in the notion of running a savage burn on one Las Vegas hotel, and then just wheeling across town and checking into another.

Plus, I can do a pretty convincing Raoul Duke.
