“Raiding The Rock Vault” Las Vegas Show
After reading about it on the internet a few months ago, I was very interested to see the show “Raiding The Rock Vault” while visiting Las Vegas just a few weeks ago. The show is relatively new compared to other shows on the Las Vegas strip and …
Summer on Trade Downtown Music Series
I had a chance to go to two of the music series in downtown Winston Salem. I don’t want to give the wrong impression of downtown Winston Salem by the name - the downtown comprises of about 16 blocks. Those 16 blocks are jammed packed with art …

The Spokane Pride Festival occurs each year in June. In recent years they have changed the parade route to run through the downtown corridor ending in Riverfront Park which makes it fun and easy for people to get involved.

The Gold Club in Hartford
The Gold Club in Hartford is best strip club in the state of Connecticut; hands down no other gentlemen’s club can even come close. There is plenty of parking available but I recommend parking at the store next door to the Gold Club because if it is busy which …

I went this year to the PlayDate that takes place once a month in Atlanta. I had never been before, and chose this particular night because I love dressing up for Halloween. Anyway, I was pleasantly surprised by the number of people who indeed felt the …
Michael C. Carlos Museum
This museum is spectacular. Delightfully anachronistic and mind-numbingly boring, the Carlos Museum stole my heart. I’m not sure why, but I simply love it there… most of the exhibits (the Ancient Americas in particular) are really fairly bad, as they just contain some old pottery (cool, if you are …
Dave and Busters Entertainment
I have been to Dave and Busters Entertainment a few times, and I enjoyed going each time I have gone. Dave and Busters is a relaxed, fun, exciting place to go with friends to socialize and hang out. The place is clearly seen from interstate seventy five but …
Maui Ocean Center - the Hawaiian Aquarium

Houston Rodeo & Livestock Show
Went to the Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo last night at Reliant Park. I’m really not much into cows, horses, petting zoos, carnivals, and country music, but attending will likely leave you with an “impression” of life in Texas.
One thing I found interesting was the “day in a …

Silent Hill Origins for the PlayStation Portable is quite a fun game. Not only are the atmospheres and clips quite eerie but the general games leaves the player with a sense of despair. Unfortunately there in no puzzle difficulty setting so the games is pretty easy in itself. The …

2008 Dodge County Fair
It seems every year the Dodge County Fair seems to get a bit more expensive to enter yet doesn’t provide as much in terms of overall entertainment.

Lan Kwai Fong, Hong Kong
Lan Kwai Fong is Hong Kong’s nightlife party area. I’ve been here lots of times, entertaining friends and family who visit Hong Kong. What I like about it is that it occupies a tiny block in Central, giving you so many options without tiring you out.
We often find a …
Chongdong Theater Seoul
At first I thought that this was the place where visitors could watch Korean traditional music and dance performance. As I am a traditional culture lover, I wanted to see the show. From Visit Korea website (http://english.visitkorea.or.kr/enu/SI/SI_EN_3_2_1.jsp?cid=612033), I noticed that they divide the seats into three groups, i.e. A-class …

Steambath

Santikos Rialto Cinema Bar and Grill
I had seen some advertisements for the Santikos Rialto Cinema Bar and Grill. I wanted to try it because it was a movie theater where I could have a drink and eat, while watching the movie. It is similar to dinner theater. I’d never experienced anything like that, so …
King Rat (Dub Reggae band, Atlanta GA)

Tower of London Ice Rink
Racking my brains for places to take my date, ice skating ranked top. I had been to one other ice rink in London-Queen’s Ice and Bowl-frankly not a romantic hotspot, more of a cheesy family ghetto.
Skating underneath the stars was more what I had in mind and Tower …
