Strip Sleepin 09 #1



This guy has a tattoo on the backside of his upper arm that reads, partially, "HARD".

My guess is it says, "Hard Napping"

But it's great to be back on the Strip

Also, it looks like that sidewalk is due for some construction. Didn't Lavi have the 'orange painted Thai fighter' post a couple years ago?

Orange Thai fighter to hard sleep pr0n™ left.

It just seemed like such bad karma to take pictures of truly destitute and homeless folk, so now I only take shots of people who look like they have a home, just not one in Vegas.

So it's "bad karma" to snap a pic of shoeless Joe catching 40 winks but somehow Good, Just, and Uplifting to emblazon your site with repeated tales of Real Estate Hubris - projects shuttered, workers idled, formerly proud cranes, now stilled, silhouetted forlornly against the sky?

Just asking...

When I take pictures of the economic meltdown, it's places, not people.

When I take pictures of people passed out on the street, I hope it's a result of their own inanity, not misfortune.

Of the karmic trade-off between "tales" and "pics", I have no opinion.

Be nice to our host.

Many Fans™ are relying on it.

I am sure Lavi has good Karma....after all...he hasn't attracted Haterz until your post D.

Hard up?


Every now and then when your life gets complicated and the weasels start closing in, the only cure is to load up on heinous chemicals and then drive like a bastard from Hollywood to Las Vegas ... with the music at top volume and at least a pint of ether.

-Hunter S. Thompson


Dedicated to the other side of Las Vegas, namely; the sprawling, mad, incoherent underpinnings of the world's favorite destination.

That, and the occasional ranting about nothing in particular.
