Is it bigger than it used to be? Is it bigger than it used to be?
I've been traveling for work recently. Unfortunately, none of that travel has taken me to Las Vegas. I was sent in the other direction to Germany and France. While there, I was struck by the differences between the old countries and the United States. I think Europe could use a little more 'Vegas', but there are similarities, and that led to this Top nine list:

9 Ways to Know That When Your Body is in Europe, Your Mind is Really in Vegas

9) Riding on the Autobahn @ 200 kph reminds you of your last cab ride down The Strip.
8) A museum volunteer tries to hand you a pamphlet and your first thought is that it's porn and you ignore her.
7) You think the really old buildings could be imploded to make way for bigger, newer buildings.
6) The cabbies and convenience store clerks don't speak English, just like in Vegas.
5) The Eiffel Tower and Arc de Triomphe are bigger than you remember, but you've never been to this Paris before.
4) It occurs to you that the phrase "English only at the table" is probably not appropriate.
3) You'd sure like to find a $4.99 prime rib special. Heck, you'd like to find a $4.99 sandwich.
2) The fine marble of St. Mark's in Venice reminds you of the fine marble in the restrooms at the Venetian.
1) You choke up a little at the sight of neon.


Good Luck and Happy Trails,

Special K
