There is a Super 8 that will allow you to sit in their lobby and use
the hell out of their wifi. Just be calm and cool about it. The front
desk clerks really don't mind. The Super 8 is immediately behind
Ballys on Koval Lane. Super 8 is right next to Ellis Island. Ask
them about their Tomato specials.:) (joke for the long timers)

Actually, you cn park under the canopy with your completed emails,
send and recieve and get the hell on if you like. I've done it. :)

Do the monorail stations still have Wi-Fi? There might be one near the
pool since the station is right above Bally's.

Not in Las Vegas Don,

The above brings up a question, and pokes a giant hole in Strevel's
fiction of living in Las Vegas. That is, why would someone who lives in
Las Vegas sit in a parked car in the parking lot of a 2nd rate motel in
order to use a WiFi connection? Why not just drive home and use the net
connection in your house? Or... go to a local coffee house or McDonald's
that has free WiFi, if the need was so immediate it couldn't wait.

No. Don prefers to use the free WiFi at the Super 8, holding a laptop
clumsily propped against the steering wheel of a parked car in 100
degree weather, which most people would prefer to the comfort of one's
own home. Really Don?

That one is almost as good as the idea of using a laptop at your home in
Las Vegas to go online using Google to connect with your main desktop,
which runs 24/7 at your home in Tennessee, to again use Google to post
messages to avlv with the excuse that it's more "secure". As if
accessing a free hotel WiFi with no password or login code that can be
used by anyone sitting in a car in the parking lot is secure.

Only from Strevel.

Who is the sicker fuck?

1. Guy who enjoys pretending, in an
online vacation forum, to be in Las Vegas
but really isn't.*

2. Guy who devotes his time and energy
to composing scores, if not 100's, of
lengthy posts wherein he finds discrepencies and inconsistencies
in the representations of the guy from Vegas who ISN"T REALLY IN
VEGAS!

* We'll assume, arguendo, he is pretending,

The question is about a wifi, and the Super 8 has a very nice one.
Your mental rantings to the contrary are of no value. You may compose
offline and drive up to the Super 8 then "send receive".

I hope you will allow me to apologies for his inacurate mental
creations of place and act. He means well, I am sure. Bit he
comments quite often on things he knows nothing of. He creates his
realities and then for some reason, becomes angry with it and
argues.

You can use the wifi at the Super 8 in any fashion you feel
comfortable, They will be happy to allow you to do so.:)

Not in Las Vegas Don,

Not only can you use their WiFi, but they also want to to help yourself
to use their bathrooms and take the free ashtrays. If you have a need
for ice, don't hesitate to take a cooler full of that as well. It's
free. Use the pool while you're at it.

Should you decide to stay there, you can also help yourself to the free
bedding and towels, but please... leave the stuff that is screwed down,
like the TV set and the sinks and toilets.

Like all good hotels, the Super 8 on Koval wants you, the person who
isn't their customer and who hasn't given them one dime in compensation,
to have FREE use of their Internet access. Please join me in giving them
a call and thanking them for their largess.

Tell them 'Don Strevel sent me'.

All I did in this thread was mention a possible wi-fi spot inside Paris. Considering
the Subject line, that would be far more convenient than walking the half-mile from
Bally's to Ellis Island and back in 100+ heat. Except in Cloud Cuckoo-Land where Don
lives.

You don't have any more of a clue who you're speaking to than you do of
where you live.

Walt,

I never thought of that. How much fun it would be to walk from
Paris/Bally's to the Ellis Island Super 8 and back, carrying ones
laptop, only to sit outside in 100+ degree heat in order to use their
free (for guests) WiFi.

Strevel sure comes up with some wacko ideas for Vegas tourists.

Laurel and Hardy, These guys and their antics are hilarious! To bad
they are trying to be malicious and to silly to know when they are
looking stupid. Funny! :)

Don ..ya know that the flight between Memphis and Las Vegas is just
a few hours. So, try not to shit all over yourself and rub it in your
hair when I post from Memphis in the am and from Vegas that evening.
Just to cause your stomach issues, I will use things you do not know
of, did not create and exist without your permission so they must not
exist, to access my system in MEMPHIS from Vegas. You are such a
small man to even conjure these things up. hahahahahaha/
\....and yes, ....the rots are there now. Oh God, (slap my forhead)
I forgot o clear that with you. So, you have a great day,enjoy s gret
breakfast, make some friends and stay up on your obviously missed
meds.

Not in Las Vegas Don,

Having had to fly into MEM from LAS once or twice I know that there is
perhaps 1 or 2 direct flights a day, and those take 3.5 to 4 hours. The
vast majority of flights from MEM are connectors and those take anywhere
from 6 to 7 hours. Like most things Strevel, "a few", in reality, turns
out to be 4 to 7 or more. And tell us Don, just how you're going to get
3 Rottweilers on the plane with you? Oh, they're already in Vegas. You
shipped them out ahead of time. They have their own private plane.

I'll tell you what Don. I'm in Vegas now, but will be on a plane in the
morning for Detroit to attend the Woodward Dream cruise. I'll post from
there in the afternoon. It will be a miracle of epic proportions. Wait.
No it won't. Just another day in the life of a normal person.

Let's see you post a picture of yourself standing in front of a Vegas
landmark holding today's R-J, posted from your TN Comcast IP address
(75.64.190.168). That would impress the hell out of me and Walt and
everyone else here. Get the 3 Rot's in the picture with you for bonus
points.

But you can't do that, can you Strevel? Getting a picture of yourself in
Vegas means being IN VEGAS, and you ain't here.

As far as meds go, if you took your own advice and started taking care
of yourself, the Doctors wouldn't have to keep hacking off pieces of
your body and you wouldn't have to keep injecting yourself with more and
more insulin to compensate for the lousy diet you seem to favor.
Remember that the next time you're sucking down pizza and sweet tea at
Pizza Hut.

Poor Gary...so much like Chuck that it doesn't really matter if he's

Gosh, you are just so right. I don't know how any of us made it
through anything without your conjecture and flippancy. By the way,
salad, a piece of pizza and tea w/o sugar. But then, you knew that,
too, right. :) Hacking off pieces...man, I hope I never get to that
point!! :) You are funny.
