I am going to have to pass on the dinner, so I will be one of those joining you all later at the Monte Carlo Brewpub - about 8:30 or 9:00 or so.
(BTW, tis a tad warm in Vegas currently, so for our out-of-town guests, be sure to bring those swim suits, and a light sweater…yes, you heard me right…a light sweater…whenever it is this hot, the casinos crank the air conditioners up and I guarantee there will be a few times you notice you are shivering from the cold in some of those places, especially if you sit and play a machine for more than 30 minutes, of if you go to see one of the big shows on The Strip.)
I hope folks are not bowing out of dinner because of the part of town the Lotus of Siam is in. Seven can ride in the YetiMobile, safety in numbers and all that.
At any rate, it won’t really matter as long as EVERYBODY!!!11 comes to the Monte Carlo Brewpub later on. I haven’t been to Vegas in over 3 years, I’m really looking forward to hanging with you guys, tossing back a few brews, taking Yeti’s money, and cheering Aholibah to victory.

Sound off! Did I miss anybody or is there any last minute Dopers out there?
And Dag, could you please call LoS a day ahead and make the reservation under Cecil Adams once we get this count finalized? Thanks.
Fly safe, Aholi…we’ll give you a call when we get to the MC Friday afternoon.

Ok, then that’s 10 without Capa84. I’ll put him down for 0, unless he posts before Thursday evening.
Thanks, Dag. What time are you planning on arriving? We should be checking in on Friday around 2:00pm and maybe hit the MC tables for 2 or 3 hours and give Duck a good ol’ roasting.
Yes, yes we do. We are able to struggle forth, however, since we are going to Vegas this weekend. It’s a burden we must bear, we will manage, I guess.
(Wish you and all the Thursday Night Irregulars could come, maybe we can do it again some time.)
I’ll still be able to make it, but we’ll be at a different hotel and I now need a ride. I’ll be at the Boulder Station Hotel. My e-mail is in my profile if anyone can help.
Lotus of Siam is at 953 E Sahara Ave, east of the the strip. There is a link to mapquest on that web site. It doesn’t face the street, rather it is in a large strip mall and all the shops face into the center. I think it’s called Commerce Center or something like that; it’s not too hard to find. It’s on the south side of the road.
Final weather report - just on the news a few minutes ago, it will be in the low 100’s, however, chance of severe thunderstorms (usually late afternoons) every day through next Tuesday…which means it might be a bit more humid that usual here.
Looking forward to seeing everybody at MC Brewpub Friday night!
And for those looking for something to do afterwards, there is a free “dueling pianos” show at NYNY, the casino directly next door to the Monte Carlo.
