The True Adventures of Montana SilverRidge

So, this past weekend, my co-worker Fantasia Silver Ridge and I headed to Las Vegas. Contrary to popular belief, we were there for professional reasons, representing our people at the Yearly Kos convention.

As it turns out, the highlights happened off the clock.

1. Mark Warner for President: I will admit, I don't know much about this guy. I do know that he throws one hell of a party. Open bar, ice sculptures, chocolate fountains, unlimited thrill rides... its a good life. I'm not going to lie, he's got my vote (Hillary, if you are reading this, I am open to better offers. You need to top the open bar, chocolate fountain and rides though).

If you don't believe me, ask Salon

Or Arianna Huffington:

Fantasia and I are badasses. Check out the rides at the Stratosphere. We rode 'em all.

2. How the Other Half Lives: After the Warner extravaganza, I would have called the trip good (see chocolate fountain and ice sculptures, above). But there was more... Fantasia and I befriended two cute boys with an expense account and had a fabulous dinner at the MGM Grand's Seablue.

I will note that its possible that the really cute one had a wife. However, it was never quite clear and until we learn otherwise, it rather added to the intrigue. (and lest the morality police be patrolling this blog, I will note that nothing happened with cute potentially married boy, sadly)

Viva Las Vegas!

ps. Did I mention the stretch hummer? Yes, you read that correctly.
