The hotel Monte Carlo is engulfed in flames starting at the uppermost floors. It's not looking good at the moment. Given that the bldg is 34 stories I hope id doesn't come tumbling down like one of the twin towers. So far no word if anyone has been hurt yet. I'm going to Vegas on Tuesday I hope the bldg is still standing then.

Yikes...

they just showed some people in a window waving for help. It kinda reminds me of the world trade.

Want to see Miles do a really great Hannibal Lechter impersonation? Tell him how wonderful you think Eli Manning is.

Monte Carlo

stayed there a few months ago (I think in the wing that I saw burning on TV). One of the better value places on the strip. Very nice hotel - not nearly as swanky as Bellagio or Venetian, but enough so as to feel like you are living above your means for a few days.

Won a good deal of money there too... hope the place isn't too badly damaged.
