Weekly is Numero Uno Thanks to Wink


Dear Editor,


I have to say you struck gold with Sonja! Her column is so entertaining and very addicting. Wink truly makes the Las Vegas Weekly number one … so glad to see she is back in full force. That girl has real talent.

Or Maybe It's Thanks to the Avenue Q Cover and Coverage


Hello Contributing Editor Steve Bornfeld and Art Director Benjamen Purvis,


Your cover of Lucy from Avenue Q was stupendous. Having been the show's press rep in NY since Q started off-Broadway, we have been able to do some great, outside-the-box stuff with Q, its players and puppets, but that cover will remain in a class by itself for all time ...


Thank you for making it happen. The creators of Avenue Q are sensitive to Lucy's being referred to at all times by her proper name, Lucy The Slut.


So, if in the future you will refer to her by her full name, not with her middle initial, that will make the great guys and bright minds who created Avenue Q very happy. Thank you for your consideration. And for your excellent support of Avenue Q. Yours truly,




Sam





Or Maybe It's Because Someone's Literate Dog Liked Our Steelers' Bar Review


Hi Columnist Lissa Townsend Rodgers!


As another former Burgher, have to say your story on Play of the Day was right on the money. We found it last season and have been going there ever since. All of our own out-of-town Steeler-fan guests, as well as the ones we end up meeting there, just love the level of excitement of the place. The owners have been great and the food makes those out-of-towners feel right at home.


Hope you have no objections, but I've included a link to your review on my dog's personal page. May sound unusual, but, well, she is ... among other things she swims underwater. Our visitors were always requesting pics and video of her, so it seemed a time-saver just to give her a page. Unfortunately it's extremely rare for her breed, and her page went global. Had to put a translation tool on the page and she gets fan mail and offers from all around the world. So much for saving time!


Also had everyone pull a "Vegas," wanting Valley info and where they could get deals, so combined the two. Guess I was one of the first to mention Big Ben, so a strange thing happens. Search Yahoo for "Las Vegas Steelers Bar" or "Ben Roethlisberger naked pictures" and Sparky's site is one of the top links that comes up! LOL.


(The "pictures" come from Sparky's own, and the "naked" comes from a mention of Norm Clarke's book.)


Feel free to stop by Sparky of Fabulous Las Vegas at:
