I was lucky enough to be invited to Yahoo!'s party last night at the Palms Hotel. Yahoo! rented out the Hugh Hefner's Sky Villa, which I hear goes for 40k per night. They had Chris Pierce performing live with his band during the event. The suite is absolutely cool. You walk in and to the left is a bar, with two bartenders, past that is a living room type of area with a fireplace, big TV, sofas. It all looks out to the Vegas skyline, seriously a sweet view. Then there is an outdoor mini pool that looks like the picture below.
On the right of the lower rooms is an other bar with more sofas. Then you can walk upstairs to the rooms. There was a photobooth on the left, past that on the left is the bathroom and shower, Rand decided to give it a try. Outside the bathroom is the revolving bed, you can see Andrew Goodman, Rand Fishkin and Myself on it at the same time. Outside of that room, top level, right side of the level, was Hef's room (wasn't allowed in), this massage room, and then some other bedrooms.
The invite list, I hear was small, when I left, I took a cab back with someone who was pretty upset he was turned away at the door.
Very cool party and tons of pics at Flickr. Thanks Yahoo!

Jeremy, my wife reports that she is very pleased that I am hanging out on the bed with two men, rather than two Playboy bunnies (that happened later).

While since the topic of fireplace arose, event hough you might not have seen it....look for it!!!!, I’d just like to lend a helpful hint to my fellow consumers about cleaning fireplaces. I found a product that makes cleaning ash and soot easy, no hassle, no mess. The AshTrap. This little tool is very cheap, and easy to use. You simply scoop up ashes into the AshTrap and the sliding door closes, and all you do is transfer it from the fireplace, to the garbage or outside (which I would recommend due to household fires). It’s small and easy to clean and put away to. If you don’t believe me I’d suggest you check out yourself. It’s great for fireplace maintenance and woodstove maintenance and cleaning! www.theashtrap.com I think it is. Anyway just a piece of my mind, some helpful advice, thanks for reading, and good luck cleaning those fireplaces or woodstoves. Thanks,
Jim
