What's mispronounced in Vegas..... Is really mispronounced.........








The All Star game was a bit hit in town last weekend. We were all able to attend the game, and see the biggest basketball stars in the league, in all their overpayed glory, putting their talents on display. The crowd was full of celeb's, including the U.S Director of Culture. More on that later......




As I gazed at Las Vegas's version of the Eiffel Tower, I thought to myself...... "Do the French think we are 100% out of our minds, or what?" We have, however, embraced their culture here in the U.S. We are a coffee-crazed nation, too many of us smoke, ion too big a hurry, and we tend to opt to the bitchy side of the equation way too much. How French? Oiu, Oiu! The French have graced us with a wonderful acrobatic truope, the Cirque Du Soleil, which we enjoyed this past Saturday in Vegas. Thanks again to Dave for the tickets.


Our Director of A.T.I.C, (All That Is Culture) Doug Query, was quoted as saying he really enjoyed the Crock Del La Sully show. "or whatever those damn Frenchies call it". Ahhh..., I can feel the love of the French for us Amercians wafting over the Seinne as we speak..........







It's obvious as we age, we shrink.
Although I think Mark is actually shorter than Dad.


The person taking the picture yelled out, just as he snapped the photo, "hey, the guy in the blue sweater has his fly open". Which would explain the lovely smile coming from Dad.

I'm not sure if the look of love coming from Dad's face is the remark about the fly, or that he is flashing back to his horse coming in 4th earlier in the day. Damn that jockey!

Word on the street is that the Kentucky Query's will be making a July 4th appearance at Crystal this summer! 3 Pines will be full of Q's.
