I love living on the company's dime. But Las Vegas sucks. I've been there maybe 4x on the company's tab. It was cool the first time. But then you learn it's a city bereft of culture. But you can get excellent food. Underrated as a culinary town.

I lived in Vegas for 5 years and hated it after 6 months. It's a depressing town after the initial excitement wears off. Fun times to be had if you're single and willing to immerse yourself in the nightlife but easy to get into trouble.

I love Vegas....but for only 3 days at a time every few years. I love getting away for a few days and having no cares. I can see how living down there could drag. My friend from HS opened up a thai restaurant on Fremont and is doing great because he knows to be successful, you have to really cater to the locals there.

I love going there once a year for 3 days. I have way more fun in that amount of time than I ever did when I lived there.

I try to pull strings and go to new orleans once a year. A unique american city. Love it down there. But only for 3 days. After that im ready to come home.

I've always wanted to go to New Orleans. With a family, is there anything else to do there other than bourbon street? The haunted tours of New Orleans always intrigued me.

I was homeless in New Orleans for a month when I was 21.

We did a walking tour once and it was actually pretty cool. I learned that the term "dixie" originated in Louisiana due to the french currency. In french the number ten is "dix". Americans started calling French $10 notes "dixie" money. Outside of bourbon street, the food in NO is unreal (try a beignets). Theres also the garden district and the World War 2 museum.

But the homeless for a month story might be more interesting than my walking tour.

But probably much less dangerous. I had been transient there once before (Mardi Gras) and the threats were less obvious because I was with a friend. The second time I was alone. It's good if you want to see America from the bottom up. Not the sexiest view ever, but it was educational.

Very pretty city on the outside; you really don't want to scratch that veneer.

How was it. How did u eat, where did u sleep

It was ugly. Hard to starve in NO. When it's not, it's easy to steal. Sleep is trickier, but squats are always available if you're welcome. The rest is just a matter of not getting beat up or arrested. Getting robbed is not a problem when you have nothing, but NO is a violent city and the police are very aggressive.

The other trick is having money to drink. Sleeping all day in one of the biggest party cities in the country is pointless if you can't take advantage of the nightlife. Sparechanging is an option, but I'm no good at it. Dispositional handicap. I talked people into getting me drunk, for the most part. Charm is key.

Mr. Green could be homeless soon! Ack!! Back to Plan Z.

Couldn't you get monies by letting vampires suck on you?

Not knowing in advance what it was, I assumed it must be some piece of crap weird indie film that he directed but it's not that at all by the looks of the trailer. Seems like a proper film, it's got Gary Oldman in it and everything! How could it do so badly?
