aka Sin City
Mayor Goodman dips his stick in Vegas spoils, too!
In the wake of the Tiger Woods fiasco, some residents of Las Vegas has been wondering how the scandal will impact the desert resort, especially since the celebrated golf pro hooked up with a couple of beauties in Sin City.
In response, city officials fired back in a self-serving effort to calm the scandal-ridden waters.
For starters, Mayor Goodman noted that the show town has been known as the "sin" capital for decades for obvious reasons.
Although the old-timer acknowleged that salacious conduct was prevalent in the city with no clocks, he argued that the naughty goings-on were part 'n parcel in a town that has been synonymous with scintillating sexy adult entertainment.
"We don't care what you do in Vegas. Just spell the city's name right," he chided in so many words.
A couple of his statements were in conflict with each other, though.
Although the look-the-other-way top honcho doesn't care what goes down in the city that never sleeps,, curiously, he also made a point of stressing that what happens in Vegas "doesn't stay in Vegas".
That may be a bit unnerving for some!
Worshippers of the Hedonistic lifestyle - and wine, women, and song (who take advantage of the smorgasbord of sensual delights available in town and around town) - would rather their dirty weekends in Vegas be kept under wraps.
One has only to look to the convention brouhaha that erupted a scant few months ago to recognize it is an obvious truism.
Once word got "out" that the giants of industry in America were touching down in Sin City, and facilitating corporate funds to fuel the party circuit, the sh** hit the fan if you recall. .
On the heels of sensational headlines at major dailies around the country - which screamed out the tawdry truth about Corporate America and Sin City - boardroom execs were inclined to slam on the brakes pronto!
At this juncture, the travel industry plummeted, resort rooms sat empty, and a gut-wrenching pall fell over a once-cocky town that had much to crow about
In the final analysis, and in the best fiscal interest of the city, the Mayor may want to shift his viewpoint a tad (all Tiger Woods lacey things considered).
Otherwise the fickle jet-set and savvy trend-setting travellers may seek out loftier climbs to party-hearty.
A quote springs to mind:
"Discretion is the better part of valor."
Amen!
Tiger should have kept his eye on the ball!
