Everybody get together:
As I said previously, I'll be in Las Vegas next Sunday evening the 16th.
and Monday morning the 17th. There seems to be interest in getting a group
together that evening.
How about this ... Let's meet at Keys Sunday evening around 8:00pm or
so. We'll have a drink and a chat, catch up on things, tell each other
fairy tales (she's lookin at you, oh no-no she's lookin at me :) and
contemplate things to come.
If you're in the LV area, please stop by. Either mode is ok, just be
there. :)
Update: Leah (LJC1000@webtv.net) has volunteered to provide a ride if
you need one. e-mail her if you need a ride.

Glamour Boutique:
This outfit sure seems to have the support of our community, as the
following comments indicate:
>I know John from his store in the Boston area and through my dealings
>with him at Southern Comfort. All I can offer is positive support. His
>store is for us about us and with us. I think it should definitely be
>on the tour.
>He has one of the VERY best makeover artists who works from his store
>and I know that Jamie Austin would be great to have available to all
>the girls. Just my two cents.
and ...
>I frequently shop at John's store in Auburn MA, and have always found
>the help to be professional, courteous, and friendly. I'm sure the
>Vegas folks will be the same.
Thanks for the feedback, everybody. I'm gonna try to meet up with John
(if he's in town) when I'm gonna be in LV. I'll be sure to stop by the
shop even if John is not gonna be there and say "hi" and I'll report
back here.
and ...
>Never ordered (from) them myself, but some of the girls I know really
>rave about the place. I hope we can make a trip there next year.

a:>> That sounds great. More incentive to join in on this. :)
m:> i will continue to work on the prizes..
m:> if anybody in the org has a biz that could afford to donate a small
m:> prize have them get in touch with me..
a: Well, uh, I suppose I could donate a box of Peeps and a quart of
a: Boob Goo. :)
a: Seriously, we still have a couple prizes left over from our abortive
a: door prize thing a couple years back. Lemme dig and see what we have
a: unclaimed.
Anyway, golf is now on the schedule. I think you'll all join me in
saying thanks to Mindy (in unison: "Thanks, Mindy") for taking the
initiative to get this going early in the process. :)

Dress Barn:

That is SUPER! I'm sure people will take advantage of this.

I'm gonna add this to our vendor list, green light, on account of this
report. I've been there, browsed anyway ... don't remember buying
anything.
>i will make an attempt to check out johns shop in the next few days and
>get back to you with a report..
Ok, thanks. From the reports we've been getting, I'm sure this will be
well-received.

That's encouraging news. Please keep us informed of any new
developments. Thanks.

Delmar, dressing, drunks:

> Lester Smith
> General Delivery
> Las Vegas, NV
You forgot to get his e-mail address. I'm sure he would want to be
on the DLV list. I'm sure he reads his Hotmail account at the Libe,
or maybe at the Fashion Show Mall kiosks when he takes his trips
there to check out the hot.babes. :)
>Oh, and Mr. Smith has asked that we avoid wearing glasses next time.
Ok, how about you do contacts and I'll do my trademark shades. :)

>If they're taking you to jail, they definitely do.
Fortunately I've never had that experience, in either mode. (Knocking on
wood.)
>>Some were in boymode, some in casual girlmode, some in gg girlmode.
>>One wore a dress (Nichole) but she pulled it off very well

Uh ...

Group from Canada:
>I am a CD and also a travel agent. I hope to put together a group from

That sounds great. The more the merrier. :)
>Have you picked out which hotels will be the unofficial headquarters? I
>know people can stay where they wish but I want to direct people to
>your unofficial hotels. I believe last year it was Imperial Palace and
>Sahara. Is it those again.
No decision yet. I'm copying this message to the DLVORG list as it's
probably time to start discussing that. I think it's safe to say that we
will have people at both the Sahara and the Imperial Palace whether or
not we designate those as our suggested hotels.
