The lead singer of Devo did the cool/creepy art in the men’s room at Park on Fremont restaurant. (@VitalVegas)

In what can be agreed is the sexiest Golden Nugget exterior signage ever looked as in the late 60s. A time when Gold didn’t look like yellow. The glow of the signage somehow embodies the phrase “feel all warm and fuzzy inside.” But Golden Nugget’s story is longer than that and even the signage couldn’t keep up with the demand caused its evolution into the property it is today. Thanks to @las_when for sharing it

Simply Elegant and somehow sexy, like the leg lamp in a Christmas Story. Milton Prell’s Aladdin’s original marquee was a looker, shared this week by @summacorp. It’s not a marquee often featured in the great marquees of Las Vegas but it should be. I can’t describe it without doing a huge disservice. It’s like a neon ice cream cone but with an ad for Nudes On Ice on it.

Twitpic of the week
One of the challenges new residents of Vegas that love the city like we do have to learn how to drive, is paying attention while you’re driving and not gawkin. This week’s pic by @_GrandPaD illustrates that better than any I’ve seen before. It’s just fuckin miles of eye candy and I have to try and ignore all of it. While I am a giant fan of the FSE and Turing all that space into a pedestrian mall, at night, it must have been impossible to drive down Fremont St.
