Twitter, ergo sum

OK, so we still can't upload photos but we can sort of link, thanks to a workaround.

In the meantime, Las Vegas Advisor is plentifully available on Twitter. We have …

Personally, I Tweet not. For starters, I lack the manual dexterity of Gov. Jim Gibbons (a prodigy capable of writing hundreds of text messages per day, earning him the sobriquet "Governor Busythumbs"). If the meme of the moment is "I Tweet, therefore I am," I shall have to settle for nonexistence, as per this music video:

Yup, that's Twitter phenom Crystal Chappell delivering the tag line. As for 72-year-old Guiding Light, it will be extinguished on Sept. 18, to be replaced on Oct. 5 with a new incarnation of Let's Make a Deal, starring Venetian headliner Wayne Brady (something for the tired housewife) and being taped at the Tropicana Las Vegas.

(Kinda neat how I brought it back 'round to the the Strip there, huh?)

Considering the lengths people will go to in order to get on a game show (and the near-riot that occurred when The Price is Right staged an anniversary show at The Rio), I'd say a Brady-enhanced Let's Make a Deal is economic stimulus in which Las Vegas can finally believe. Bummer about "La lumiere que guide" (™ Will Ferrell), though.

Any readers who have Twitter accounts and wish to be followed, please post in the "Comments" thread. And if the Comment-Eating Server thwarts you, I'll do a special S&G post on your behalf. Is that a deal?
