Where a geek can be a geek.

Roland and I got back from Vegas late on Sunday. It was a great trip and we had a really good time. Jason was already there for a work class thingy, which he apparently passed with a 93% on the certification test. Go Jason. I spent some time playing poker, while Roland and Jason spend a lot of time playing poker. I ended up playing for about 7 hours total I think, and came out even, so that was good. Roland and Jason ended up in the money for at least one tournament each so that was nice for them (I only play limit so no tournaments for me). Plus they had a side bet going on one tournament that whoever got pushed out first had to buy me a caramel apple. This was pretty much a win, win for me so I didn't really mind.

We saw the Cirque du Soleil show O, which was incredible, and walked around seeing the sights. There are a few more pictures over at if you are interested. One of my favorite things was going to the Star Trek Experience and eating at Quark's Bar. We drank some quite a few nifty drinks served in a bowl with dry ice in it for fun smoking effect and chatted with a Klingon for a while. My inner nerd was pleased.
