Vegas Time Again

Posted by James Published in Pictures

Well, let’s see…..did anyone notice that I was gone?
Other than the main page on the website not being updated, the newsletters still went out as scheduled. (which was a nice thing)

So me and my buddy Shawn flew out from Chicago (4 hour flight) and arived in sunny and 65 degree Las Vegas on saturday morning and came back home Wednesday night.

We went out there for an affiliate marketing conference, which was awesome!

But who cares, right? You want to see pics! ok…
My car! Heh, yeah right.

Me and Alex (who is redesigning my website) after having a couple of cocktails.
and ack! yeah, that is a cigarette.

Me, Alex, and some Blue guy. Actually, we went to a private performance by the Blue Man Group.

My buddy Anne, from Clevermoms.com

Don’t ever rub a blue persons head.

Anne, Alex, and the smurfs

Me in my pajamas. Oh noooos! Actually, I was posing with my ultra cool neverblueads.com beanie.
I love that network!

Just hanging around

Me and my buddy Shawn trying to be all cool =)

So what were you doin in canada man?

James said in February 29th, 2008 at 5:38 pm

The last guy is my buddy Shawn, who went with (and is a couple of months away from opening his own photography studio).

Blue Man Group is a goofy variety show type of deal. I dont even know how to explain it, but it is awesome (me and my wife went to see them a couple of years ago in Chicago)

If you lived in Seattle, I’d tell you that you should have folded me up and put me in your suitcase.
Happy 2nd birthday to Patrick.

James–looks like you had a great trip! Thanks for
sharing. . .LOVED “your” car!! Thought about get-
ting one similar, but decided using a shoehorn to
get in, and a can-opener to get out, was NOT a
good idea for this old granny!
That BlueManGroup is unique; don’t believe
I’ve ever seen them except in commercials. And YOU
got to see them in person!…What a trip!
