CES blues

I wanna go home
The estimates are 150,000 for the crowd at this year’s Consumer Electronics Show.
That’s way, way too many people.
There are long, long lines for everything: For taxicabs, for the new Las vegas monorail system (called “FailaRail” by the locals who note its frequent outages), for the bathrooms, for the restaurants and just to look at what’s being shown in the booths on the show floor.
It takes a minimum of an hour to go anywhere here.
Add to that the fact that it actually snowed here for a few minutes this morning and now it’s a cold, miserable and very steady rain.
Hang in there Mike.
Wahhhhhh.
