Random Vegas
Del Webb was a private person, egoless. He wouldn't even allow himself to be paged in any of his properties. In fact, he remained so anonymous that one former employee tells a story about a time Webb tried to get on a service elevator at the Sahara to go to the offices in the penthouse. An employee stopped Del, asked who he was and when he claimed he was Del Webb, the employee told him, unless he could prove that, he wasn't allowed to use the service elevator and turned him away. Later, it was confirmed Del was who he claimed to be, and rather than fire the employee, he was very please that he stopped him since he didn't know who he was because he could have been anyone wanting to burn the place down.
Twitpic of the week
It’s common knowledge that rain doesn’t happen often in Las Vegas. When it does, neon reflections in puddles are commonly captured. This time, @RemkoRinkema shared the view from a rain soaked windshield in traffic and it was fabulous. Noticeable are both Bally’s marquee, the reflection of Bellagio and brake/headlights. I hate precipitation in any form unless its used for recreation. But its hard to deny how it captures the beauty of the neon jungle.
