I'm from 'Hurricane' country and have never experienced sand storms...till today when I got caught in one (and it's still going on even now...10+hrs after it began) today, in downtown Vegas. It is so bad, the satellite TV in my hotel is out; they have two types of connections here; one for TV (satellite) and DSL for internet. At least I can surf and play online poker. Kinda quiet in my room, tho. So, if you guys know any songs or anything, lets sing, ok?

Batten down the hatches!

Storm is over, here, but it went from beautiful temps in the 70s to crummy temps in the 40s. I could have stayed home for that-LOL, and I would have saved a fortune, too!

I was quite surprised to see the video footage of the flash floods they had in Vegas, not what I would have expected for a town built in the desert... :trytofly:
