I also spent alot of time looking for the perfect picture to use as retaliation against WAFFLES for THIS. However my friends, art cannot be rushed, so you'll have to wait till tomorrow for it. Besides, revenge is a dish best served cold. *evil grin*
Now, back to my current obsession about Vegas movies. I read the wikipedia blurb about Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas and it certainly wasn't what I was expecting. I can still see it On Demand so I will, and I think I'll appreciate it, but like I said, not what I originally had in mind. To that end, I decided to Google top vegas gambling movies and the list below is what I found.
Casino, 1995 - I saw it and enjoyed it.
Rounders, 1998 - I saw it and I LOVED IT.
The Cooler, 2003 - I saw it and enjoyed it.
Kaleidoscope, 1966 - I don't think I'd love this, but it was made in the year I was born!
Bugsy, 1991 - I never saw this. I thought it was more a mob movie than a gambling one. I will watch it at some point.
Croupier, 1998 - Never heard of this but it looks excellent. Almost at the top of my list.
High Roller, The Stu Ungar Story, 2003 - Bing! This is the top movie I want to see and I'm ordering it today on Amazon.com, unless of course someone wants to send me a copy. :)
The Cinncinati Kid, 1965 - Never saw it. *yawn*
California Split, 1974 - ditto
Ocean's Eleven, 2001 - I saw it and it was pretty good.
If anyone has any suggestions that aren't on this list please leave a comment. I'll wait till tonight to place my Amazon order and it would be great if I found another gem to add to it.

Mama mia, what a scooter!
You wouldn't believe how hard it was to find a picture of a hot guy with a scooter. I didn't do too badly though, now did I? After searching image after image I found the one above on a gay website. Obv this man is too good looking to be straight, but what eye candy! If you'd prefer a hot GIRL on a scooter visit DUGGLE BOGEY. He'll take care of you, and tell him Very Josie sent you.
