This Las Vegas motel advertises rooms for a mere $155 per week including free phone and cable. It is within easy walking distance from such downtown landmarks as the recently renovated El Cortez and the Fremont Experience (and likely some unanticipated downtown experierences!!).
Perhaps a play on words-- This and the photo below just seemed to go together!!

The Beetle TDI after its first week in Las Vegas. HEALTH CARE PROVIDER FINALLY CALLS L.E. FANT:
Late Friday afternoon L.E.'s doctor called and discussed L.E. Fant's elevated blood pressure. He claims that the "upper number" is of little concern as the "lower number" remains within range.
He stated that his staff would call L.E. top set up an appointment for this week. L.E. awaits that call.
CATHOLIC CHURCH GEREROUSLY OFFERS HELP TO L.E. FANT AN ADMITTED HERETIC?
L.E. Fant received the following email claiming to be an offer from the Catholic Church [L.E. has redacted email addresses in order to protect his superior readers]:
> DNT> The Catholic Church Italy (http://www.) would like> to inform you that you have been picked by the board of trustees as one> of the final recipients for a cash Grant/Donation for your own> personal, educational, and business development. In the year 1901, they> started offering collection for the Sole objective of human growth,> educational and Community development. In conjuction with the ECOWAS, > UNO, and> the EU, We are giving out a yearly donation of US$650,000.00 each to> 100 lucky recipients each year, undermining your religion. Kindly> contact the Church Executive Secretary below for further information on> the donation.>> Exec Sec Amerigo Ampellio> Email: @live.com>> Please endeavour to quote your Qualification numbers> +(N-2.2.2,6.6.4.7, E-9.1 0.5.6)
Sadly he must conclude the email is precursor to a scam and highly unlikely to have originated from the Vatican or other holy sources.
L.E. has asked friends close (or way closer than is he) to the Pope to confirm or deny any such offer from the Catholic Church.
VW BEETLE TDI:
The first week of Beetling has proved a pleasure for the Fants (especially when at the fuel pump).
Jack A. Roo (who has gained 7 pounds in two weeks)enjoys its back compartment for comfortable travel and has ample windows for sightseeing.
The vehicle received its first Las Vegas diesel on Saturday and was topped of with the addition of 7.9 gallons (its tank holds 14.5).
That amount was consumed from Wickenburg AZ (just out of Phoenix)to Las Vegas, some sightseeing, travel to the Egg & I, travel to a movie theatre last Sunday when celebrating Mrs. Fant's birthday and a week of commuting by Mrs. Fant. While not exact, probably a total of at least 350 miles was travelled . This calculates to an average of approximately 44 mpg. L.E. believes this to be a commendable figure when one considers last week required A/C on for every trip and the poor car had a half tank of contaminated fuel left from its top off in NM.
The vehicle's trip meter is now set and an accurate consumption figure will be available shortly. L.E. looks forward to making a batch of bio diesel from used fryer oil.
When getting the Beetle smogged he discovered that the smog facility's owner has used discarded cooking oil in his pickup for the past four years and thouroughly reccommends the habit.
At last, when diesel Beetling, the Fants may look smug Prius drivers squarely in their eyes and display pity for their apparently misguided choice of, and extremely ugly mode of transport.
