After having many dining experiences ruined by the malodorous stench of cigarettes and hundreds of seemingly impenetrable wine glasses marked by the off-putting odor of cigarette smoke which somehow permeates.....everything.....

Las Vegas dining establishments are now 100% non-smoking!!

Every time I go there I am excited for about 12 hours...then I can't wait to leave.

I can see why you would love it, but I don't.

Relax, Joe, you can always blow some smoke up....

Ah, I can't finish it! Big Grin

It sounds like it's worth it to go back to Las Vegas (I got married there), although it wasn't the smell of tobacco smoke that bothered me so much. It was more the burning smell of my money being ripped out of my wallet at supersonic speed that I just couldn't get used to.

Hopefully they'll outlaw trans fats soon and permit only hybrid vehicles on their roads. Roll Eyes

It takes you 12 hours to lose you money? Heck, I can do it in about 2 hours. That saves having to spend the night. Wink

It would seal the deal if they make Vegas an official Nuclear Arms Free Zone.

You know, it always bothered me that they allowed children to drink soft drinks in Vegas. Hopefully, they'll eliminate this crime from occurring in the future.

I love it when people celebrate freedom being taken away. Roll Eyes

Nahhh, that lingering radiation from the 50's test blasts is part of the charm. Wink

I remember reading that the glow of Los Vegas can be seen from space at night. Maybe it's not just the neon that allows that to happen.

They better ban foie gras or I'll never spend another dime in that vulgar, capitalist freak show of a city.

Well put. And I will go one step further. I will not visit that filthy town unless they ban tap water from the restaurants, and allow only bottled water, preferably of the 10 dollars per bottle variety, because it must be better for my health than the free stuff that comes out of the tap. Only those Confusedpoor people drink that stuff, I think.

personally I don't care if you are at the next table dropping acid while reading "Juggs" with your IPOD playing a podcast of the Koran...but when I'm paying a chunk of change for a dining experience don't F with my air, my wine, or my food.

Do they put fluoride in the water in Vegas?
