....in about an hour. This'll be my first time and I hope to have a great time. I'm flying over as it only takes an hour.

Maybe I will run into Apex. If I do, I will go gambling right away after that, becuase, that would be good luck to beat those odds.

Later, all.

You would be surprised how small Las Vegas really is. I've run into some really random people in weird places. It is 5AM at New York New York and I was going up to my room. There was only one person in the elevator with me. I realized I knew her since elementary school. It was really odd. But whenever I go to Vegas, I seem to run into someone that I know. At any rate, enjoy yourself. DOn't spend too much time at AVN. I'll be driving to LV on Friday myself.

Alright, I am back. Had an awesome time. Saw a bunch of people from TechTV and got their autographs. I won like 4 of the TechTV books. I saw Penn (Penn & Teller) and LOTS and LOTS of LCD/Plasma screens. Good lord, they were everywhere. Pioneer had a section with 18 42" plasmas (in a square acting as one big screen) on the floor with plex glas over it and you just walk right over it.

Ahh.. well. I have about 240 pictures and a few videos. I will post em' up later tomorrow.

YES! CES theme should have been "LCD/PLASMA INSANITY"

There had to be at least a hundred plasmas @ their "booth", most of them from their Aquos line. They are also the ones who had stage dancers promoting their products. There was a stage right behind the left partition of plasmas in the picture above. It fit very well for Vegas. ;)
