Since we are talking about Vegas, I have decided that the security there must be incredible. To the al-Queda followers, Las Vegas must be the Sodom and Gomorrah of the United States. So why hasn't anything happened there? I'm convinced it is because of the security. Perhaps people are being watched more than they realize!! Anybody else have any ideas?
Sorry, geek. I guess I still haven't tied all this back into swimming. I am curious, however, about good places to swim out there. I have a weakness for blackjack.
The only major terrorist concern in Las Vegas is at the Venetian Hotel Resort and Casino. I used to work for TAO there. The reason for the concern is that the owner of the Sands Corporation, which owns the Venetian, is Sheldon Adelson. Sheldon also happens to be one of the top 10 wealthiest people in the world and is Jewish. His wife is also from Israel. However, whenever there are exceptionally high numbers of tourists in Vegas for an event, Bellagio and others step up their security. At the Venetian, on any given day, you cannot enter the resort without stopping at a security checkpoint and there are bomb-sniffing dogs walked all over the property day and night. Oh, and Sheldon has the same Israeli bodyguard by his side day and night. Which all ties into swimming and Phelps because.....Phelps has gold medals and Adelson has gold leaf throughout the hotel of which has a 50m outdoor pool :) Oops, I forgot, Sheldon also finished the Palazzo Hotel Resort and Casino before I left Vegas in March. It is connected to the Venetian. It's supposed to have great rooftop pools too!
