I Recommend This Hotel for Next Year

“We embrace the spirit of rock ’n’ roll,” says Brandon Powers, creative director of the Hard Rock Hotel in Las Vegas. “They can trash their room or even take a donkey up there, so long as we don’t have to clean up after it in the casino. It takes a lot for us to ask someone to leave.”

Who wants to volunteer to be on the donkey committee?
 
No, I'm just saying that if they'll let you take a donkey up there, then if one of the people attending is a jackass, we shouldn't get in too much trouble.

I'll be staying at that hotel tomorrow night. I'll let you folks know what I think.

Is that a challenge, Tony?
 
If I recall ALPA had their BOD meeting there in 2008 (maybe? @ATN_Pilot would know the year) and from what I recall it's not too bad. It's certainly not as nice as the Cosmo, but it ain't the Sahara either.
 
I think the more important question is "why doesn't Dear Leader know that the DPA is irrelevant by now?"

If I was United or FedEx (or any other property that pays a large percentage of ALPA's operating costs), I would be absolutely livid that the Supreme Leader of ALPA is letting his decision making be effected by guys throwing around sand in his own sandbox.

With a crowd like we have here at JC, do you really think you will trouble finding volunteers for this?

All I know is that despite my proximity to the border and thus the ability to get performing donkeys, if you know what I mean, I am not doing it.

It'd be one hell of a drive from San Diego to Las Vegas if I had a donkey in the back. Maybe I could borrow Mike D's truck.

Looks like we have our first two volunteers;)
 
Well, stayed there, I liked it. However, I cannot stay there if my roommate is a drummer. They've got cymbals as light shades. And drum sticks on the Indiana Jones style in room vending machines -- if you pick it up, they charge you for it. Combine the two, and it is a guarantee that a drunk drummer will pick up the sticks and go to town on the cymbals.

They did say that you can do pretty much what you want, though, so maybe they won't kick you out for doing that. After all, you did pay a whole hell of a lot more than you needed to for the drum sticks.
