Just wanted to give everyone a quick heads up that Brian, Jerry, and I are all here in Vegas safe and sound. (Although judging by Jerry’s tweets he hasn’t been able to get ahold of Brian).
I got in about an hour ago and its a bit late to head out to meet the gang, so that will have to wait until the morning. I shot a very quick three minute video pretty much explaining what I just typed here.

Let me ask you a personal question: Do you like free cigars? Odds are you do. My scientific, peer-eschewed research indicates 9.5 out of 10 people prefer their cigars to cost nothing. The other guy? He got so excited he scribbled all over the survey, broke his pencil and then fell out of his chair. […]
Brian and Sean at the mic. It was a long week, so I did some napping between segments. This week I did something new, I went on a local radio show to talk about cigar and craft beer pairings. That’s right, traditional over-the-air waves radio. I was a guest on an hour long show called […]

They have to expect cigar smoking with the trade show going on, so I wouldn’t worry about it if I was you.
Have a great time, all you guys!
Where are you staying Walt ? I can’t believe that was your first flight. It must have been an experience.
Jon,
I’m staying at Harrah’s. From what I understand it is practically across the street from the convention center. I haven’t ventured outside just yet to verify that though.

Walt – A little advice about long flights… Every 30-60 minutes, pace around the plane isle a little and stretch out. Sure, it will creep people out, but you gotta be mobile or the stiffness will kick in.
This method helped greatly on my 12 hour flight to Japan. And the staff can be understanding as long as your intentions are clear (IE you don’t fiddle with the exit doors, etc) 🙂
I’m going to have to say I’m green with envy. Wish I was there herfin’ it up with the big boys!!
wow, have fun there Walt and crew. Someday, I’ll have to build up enough wife good will so that I can attend a major herf like CI’s or the Big Smoke. I’ll have to do some major saving up for the Big Smoke though. Yowza. But air fare is a LOT less heh. Oh the trouble of travel and smoking 🙂
Glad you guys made it safe and sound. Can’t wait for the report.
Yeah, I’m flying to Philly in a week and not looking forward to the long flight. But at least it’s a nonstop. 🙂
