"The Greek Isles, The Saddest Place On Earth"

That's the title of a thread on alt.vacation.las-vegas that was pretty interesting. Gave a rundown of the places that had been there over the years, Debby Reynolds, Paddlewheel, that WWF project before them wrasslers commenced to killing off their families and now the Saddest Place On Earth. Even put out there that the location was cursed somehow. I remember staring at the GI from one of my Riviera rooms at a past convention. Out there past the A/C ductwork, chainlinked parking lots and various alleyways.

You know, I really regret not walking the extra couple of blocks back in '98 just to see what was around the curve there on LV Blvd. Would have found the Desert Inn. D'oh! Missed it. It's gone now. Nuts. Somehow never entering Hooters H&C isn't going to bum me out too much. Bye! Made the last year of The Frontier, 'Ho and the Dust but I'll wind up skipping the Greek Isles before it goes too. Oh well.
