 yes, I did go to Vegas last weekend to help celebrate a friend's birthday... first time in many years. This is actually an almost candid shot, the guy in the back was really napping, and the gal in the front needed very little direction :)

The funny part was that instead of going to a strip club or something, we asked the driver to take us well outside the Strip to see this interesting building :

It is Lou Ruvo Center for Brain Health designed by Frank Gehry. The driver was a bit surprised by our request, it must have been the first stretched limo ride to that destination in Las Vegas history :)

I suspected this might be yours Lev but the stretch limo didn't compute. Thanks for explaining.

hopefully it stayed in Vegas ;) I'm thinking that adding some blur around the image would've helped to convey the whole "drunk" aspect.
