What I Know For Sure: About Las Vegas

With several trips to Las Vegas under my belt, I have learned a thing or two. It is less expensive to travel during the week, say Sunday thru Thursday. Weekend stays are usually more expensive and kinda hard to come by.

When going through airport security, remember to pack carry-on toiletries in a clear, quart-sized Ziploc bag. Do not try to bring that bottle of Dasani water on board that you bought outside the airport. No matter how much you paid for it, do not attempt to bring full size bottles of anything including toothpaste, mouthwash or expensive lotion. 3 ounces or less. Don't get angry. You're going to have to toss it. Sorry. Pack early. Check the TSA website for any changes to the guidelines for carry-on items.


If you are borderline OCD like me, be sure to wear some socks or footies when you have to take your shoes off. I don't know where those other feet have been and I don't want my tootsies mingling with what lies beneath us.


In terms of getting there, package deals are the best. Airfare, hotel and a car if you need it, can be priced better than booking airfare alone. Lastminute.com and Expedia.com has been the best online booking sites for us. The only drawback has been at times having to take a red eye flight home. Our hotel stay is usually cut short by having to check out about 8-10 hours early in order to catch the midnight flight home. But this is tolerable.

Skipping taxi cab fares by opting for the Monorail service has been a money saver while in Las Vegas. The 1 to 3 day unlimited ride ticket is very economical. The ride from the MGM to the Sahara is totally air conditioned and as a writer like me, you can meet some interesting people who are happy to be on vacation and willing to chat!

Wear comfortable clothes and shoes! I have also found that carrying a backpack is so easy to carry everything I need such as beverages, lotion, sanitizer, umbrellas and jackets. It may be 100 plus degrees in the summer, some buildings can be downright chilly.
Although Las Vegas is billed as being a Grown & Sexy kinda place, traipsing around in hooker shoes with your fanny hanging out, isn't always appropriate. Those sexy shoes may prove no match for the concrete jungle of Las Vegas and you may just hang them up, literally, like the person did in the above photo! Vegas now has lots of family attractions. So it is no longer "What Happens in Vegas, Stays in Vegas. It all may be viewed by a toddler looking up your skirt!

Be prepared to dodge moms and dads pushing double decker strollers. Be tolerant of tourists taking pictures. Be courteous and ask if they want you to take a picture for them so they can all be in the shot with the waterfall or the Vegas skyline behind them.
Tell them not to worry, you don't need their camera! The one around your own neck costs as much as their whole trip to Las Vegas! Make sure that you bring your camera bag and charger, an empty memory card and an extra new battery or two. It will not go to waste. It's amazing how much zooming in and out on a camera really drains the battery.

Budget for Las Vegas. You can never have enough money or enough time in Vegas. While there is plenty to choose from eatery-wise, it can get expensive. Places off the strip still have some cheap eats. For example, the Tropicana's Garden Cafe has a daily, all day, $9.95 Blue Plate special. Their Legends restaurant also has a $19.95 lobster meal after 5 PM! Present a player's club card at the Sahara Casino and an $8.99 dinner buffet is all yours. Of course it's Las Vegas, if you are a drinker and a gambler, drinks are complimentary. But please remember to tip the cocktail waiters and waitresses!

Take advantage of the free stuff in Las Vegas. The water show at the Bellagio or the Fremont Street Light Show Experience are always fun. . .and free.

If you don't mind giving up some of your time, a time share pitch can net you a couple of free show tickets while in Las Vegas. Personally, we do not like the time share pitches because we don't want a time share and don't want to be pressured to buy one on our vacation.

Perhaps my best tip to give you is to bring your own toiletries. Include routine medicines like Advil or Tylenol, Alka Seltzers and Pepto Bismol! I know from experience. After a late night of riding the Monorail, walking and sightseeing until I was delirious, I was hungry by the time we got back to the hotel. I ordered room service. I wanted a lobster but decided on breakfast. Seemed harmless enough. Sausage, ham, scrambled eggs and cheddar biscuits. Who can't make breakfast? Apparently this particular hotel we were staying in! Within 20 minutes, I was sick. With no medicine of our own, my husband was off to the downstairs pantry to find me some relief. He came back with 2 items,
priced at $5.39 & $5.69. Both could have been purchased at home for far less but at that moment, I would have paid $500!

My last tip, remember to log your frequent flyer miles with your airline. You just may be closer than you think to your next vacation getaway! With a free trip, you may be able to afford to upgrade to first class!

MGM: Metro Goldwyn Mayer???

Over the years, I've stayed at the following Las Vegas hotels:

The Golden Nugget (Fremont Street Experience)
The Tropicana
The Mandalay Bay
The Monte Carlo
The Excalibur

Our most recent stay was at the MGM. I no longer believe MGM stands for Metro Goldwyn Mayer. For me, it is My Goodness Man! Are you kidding me? I was looking forward to it because it has a Monorail station at the hotel. The Monorail

is the best way to get around Las Vegas. A three day pass is just $28 per person and you get to ride up and down the strip in air conditioned comfort. It runs from the MGM to the Sahara. Try spending money on a taxi in Las Vegas and you will soon realize the Monorail is the way to go. At times, it was a little crowded. I heard there was a teachers' convention going on in Las Vegas. What foolish school system would send their teachers on a conference in Sin City? I have heard that they rarely make it to the meetings and never present shiggity when they get back to their home schools! But I digress. My husband and I found it amusing spotting the teacher-types. Some teachers cannot shake the "Mrs. Jones" look--even in Las Vegas.

The check-in lines at the MGM were long. When we finally got to the front, we were told that no more King Sized regular rooms were available but she could give us a smaller King room on a renovated area of the hotel. Renovated. We agreed to accept the room. We were located on the 5th floor, room 558. Seemed harmless enough. After the rough air ride, being just 5 stories up seemed alright with me. The trek to the room took us 3 minutes once we got off the elevator! No lie. It was the absolute LAST room down the hallway and due to the due to the mirrored effects, looked like we were walking "Through The Lookinglass" to Alice in Wonderland I felt sorry for my poor husband who failed to heed my advice of taking his rolling luggage. Mr. "I-Don't Want-To Wrinkle-My-Clothes" took his rollerless garment bag. He huffed and puffed as we bounced down the narrow corridor. My pink and green apple luggage was damaged during the flight but it still rolled! He will now listen to his wife. LOL.

But back to My Goodness Man! When we finally got to the room, it looked ok. But upon further inspection, I was not a happy camper. The smaller room type was not the real issue: The bed blocked the window. Not very feng shui! The view was of the top of the building. Not only was it at the end of the world but right across from the housekeeper's workroom or something. Very noisy. The room was renovated but it was a handicap accessible room. I shuddered to think that we able bodied people could be taking a room from someone who really needed it. We made the trek back downstairs to stand in the check in line. We were assigned a new room, with a view of the strip, at no extra cost, on the 21st floor! Yay! The catch: we couldn't check in until the next day after 3 PM! Oh man! In the future, we will ask all the necessary questions before accepting a room change.

The package from lastminute.comincluded a couple of show tickets. We wanted to see Disney's The Lion King showing at The Mandalay Bay. The first guest services person told us to check at the MGM's Concierge desk tomorrow morning for our tickets. The next day, we stood in the long and eventually wrong line at MGM for over 40 minutes just to be told we needed to go to The Mandalay Bay for the tickets. We were very frustrated with the poor services received thus far at the My Goodness Man. When I saw Zumanity while staying at The Excalibur, getting the tickets were easy. I knew that I needed to check the box office at New York New York. The simpleton at the MG desk should have told us the correct information. We would have had no problem going over the The Mandalay Bay to pick up the tickets. Again, I will digress.

The new room, 21-322 was much better. The view was not a great as the one I had in February at The Excalibur but it was good.

My observations about the MGM. It is in a great location. The Monorail station is located in the building. There are a number of good and reasonably priced restaurants. Not only can you find celebrity restaurants like Wolfgang Puck's, Top Chef's Tom Coliccho's and Emeril's but there is a McDonalds, Starbucks, Nathan's hotdogs and a pizza place with some great deep dish pizza!

I think the MGM is for Party People! There are several nightclubs that seem to cater to the anything goes clientele. Studio 54. Tabu. Need I say more. I could not believe the number of children that we say inside the hotels AND casinos in Las Vegas. They were everywhere and in my way! The lines are always long in the MGM. The service we received was always crappy. Seemed like some of the people may have been slightly intolerant of people of color. How about when we were the last people in line, the agent walked up, after we had been in line for over 15 minutes, and cuts the line off at us! Now we were already the last people in the fucking line. I was pissed. He could have waited on us. But my theory is that if a person doesn't want to wait on me, I don't want to be waited on by them! I'm not the one with the problem and I am not always up to trying to prove a point.

Would we stay at the MGM again? Not even if it were free!

Nearer My God To Thee!

Lastminute.com was the booking site of our most recent vacation destination: Las Vegas. We elected to leave on a flight the would allow us to finish out the family reunion activities. While I wanted to leave Sunday night, we selected a 7:00 PM Monday evening flight. We arrived in Las Vegas at 8:00 PM Pacific time. The flight was horrible! We flew through thunderstorm clouds and the turbulence was scary to say the least! The beverage service did not begin until late due to the bumpiness of the flight. Beverage and choice of spiced cookies or peanuts. Peanuts? Peanuts?! Hell, I don't eat peanuts in a car and I darn sure never eat peanuts on a plane. Superstious reasons. I'll blog about it in a later post. I always buy my husband the delicious Biscoff cookies online but I wanted a shot of something, anything alcoholic! I settled for a ginger ale. Can you believe we were given whole cans of soda on the new Delta/Northwest plane? I guess they figured that if this would be "it", let them at least have a whole can of soda! The pilot kept coming over the PA apologizing for the ride and that there was nothing he could do about it. As we flew over New Mexico, he announced there were storms behind us and ahead of us, the Phoenix airport was shutdown due to the storms. Oh $hit! The plane was quiet and cold. I check the weather before traveling. Didn't pilots do the same thing? If we landed safely on the ground, I vowed to walk back the 1430 miles back to Memphis!

The captain did a good job getting us to Las Vegas safely. I have never flown in bad weather and from talking to other people, it could have been worse. When I am up so high, it makes me think about my Creator and how far man has advanced to have a huge airbus slicing through the sky. Simply amazing.

Mr. Jamie Foxx!!!

How bold were we to miss the get acquainted night of the family reunion to see Jamie Foxx?! My husband's family blew his phone up all during the concert: Blame it on the alcohol!


Jamie Foxx is the man! I rarely sat down during the concert at the FedEx Forum! Do you know how badly I needed to get out and have some fun?! Mr. Foxx was awesome! There was even a guest appearance by Dave Hollister who blew some vocals!

The opening act, comedian Speedy was funny. He put the audience on blast for their choices of wardrobes! Thank goodness we arrived early and looked normal!

We were at the concert he did a few years ago and he told the crowd that he wanted to give us $5000. The crazy man let "Jamie Money" rain down from the sky! One fell directly in my hands that I still have. I'll have to scan it and put it on my blog.

If Jamie Foxx comes to your city: GO!

It Is Done

The SMS text message from CNN to my iPhone has resolved the Steve McNair murder: murder/suicide. Though I already felt this would be the classification, I still have too many unanswered questions of "Why". I may never know the answers. And at this point, it doesn't matter, it can't bring him back. I'm only wishing that I will awaken from a nightmare and find that working summer school had me really exhausted and it was only a crazy Midsummer's Night Dream.



I had so much nervous energy that I had to make a video tribute to Steve. I was so tired of all the negative press about his personal life, I wanted to remember and share the good memories about Steve. He was a nice man who loved football and did a hell of a job entertaining those of us who watched. All the residents of glass houses with their pockets full of pebbles, should take this tragedy as a reason to examine their own lives and mortality.

Michael Jackson Tribute

I don't know about you all but I cannot stop watching the Michael Jackson Memorial Tribute! It was absolutely beautiful! I can't help but to think that Michael would have enjoyed it. Why does a part of me want to think that he is not gone--that he wanted to escape celebrity and live as a normal person with a new look.

While this fantasy may ease my spirit for the moment, I do believe that MJ has truly left the building. I don't think the whole state of California would enable Michael to fake his death. If you guys are avid viewers of the 70s tv show, "Good Times", you vividly remember when "Fishbone" faked his death and was sitting in the audience with the mourners. I did kinda look twice at Latoya in that big a$$ hat. . . just kidding.

All of the speakers and entertainers were marvelous. Usher Raymond got to me the most. If I didn't know it, I know it now: that boy can "sang"! And don't tell me that John Mayer didn't jazz it up for MJ! I was the only person in the room who knew who he was before they put the graphic on the screen. I try to be diverse in my music! Cool points for me. I have no idea who that lady was who sang led for We Are The World and Heal The World, but she had the little hairs on the back of my neck standing up! Wow!


I was at work. Summer school is a J-O-K-E! How can a kid fail 10 months worth of work and pass in 5 weeks?! I will never work this sh!t again. The PE coach wanted to watch the memorial so he asked to bring the kids in the library. Damn. Flashback to the Inauguration. Sharing it with people I did not want to be with. What pissed me off about the kids this time was that they were not paying attention and were making noise. I told him that he had to get them out of there. I did not want to remember being with their asses 50 years from now. The next group was better. Who ever heard of PE in summer school?

Anyhoo, I was inspired by the speeches and talks of Michael's creativity. I felt a fire brewing in my own belly to get creative. Michael may be gone but he has left us a true legacy. Time to get shaking! I did stop by Michael's Craft Store for some supplies. I also started and completed a Steve McNair video. I felt like I had to do something to clear some of the negative press that was everywhere.

Go Home!

Someone please tell the Grim Reaper to go home!

Keep Calm & Carry On

In the last few days, we have mourned the loss of several well known celebrities. Personally, there has been loss. A former co-worker expired the same day as Farrah Fawcett and Michael Jackson.

Sure, I have been amongst the people talking about & mourning Michael's sudden death. But if there is a message here, it is "Live For Today". Tomorrow is not promised. Death to me is no longer a shocker. We all have to go that way. We get consumed when it happens suddenly. I have most recently adopted the adage, "Keep Calm & Carry On." I believe this phrase was coined by the British government during wartime. I think it fits my life perfectly.

We are not immortal.

Steve McNair

Life is too short. My phone has been ringing off the hook. I do not want to talk to anyone right now. I don't know the details but CNN is reporting that Steve was killed a little while ago.

I was asleep when my BFF called and told me that it was sad about Steve. Steve who? I had a feeling that the reponse was gonna be bad. My favorite QB of all times and fellow Alcorn State Alum has been fatally shot in the head. Why was Steve McNair at an apartment complex? I don't know the details but I can tell ya they won't be pretty. Love triangle, murder suicide, jealous rage.

My most fond memories of Steve McNair are of his days as QB at Alcorn State University. This man always had the stands packed. He could really throw that football.

I had the opportunity to meet Steve and he was a very nice man. The photo above was taken when he came to the J.D. Boyd Library in 1995 to autograph his Sports Illustrated cover.

RIP Air McNair!

What About Me?

With all that has been going the last few days, life kinda gets put into perspective. Life is for the living. Michael Jackson, Farrah Fawcett, Ed McMahon and even Billy Mays left a legacy: a body of work. I need to get busy! Stay tuned for my endeavors.

But also, I plan to really get out and see some shows and events. Even before MJ's death, I had already purchased Jamie Foxx tickets.

Now, I am really excited to see him perform live again. I now want to jet down to New Orleans and see Maxwell at the Essence Festival. Mind you, I haven't a ticket nor a room to stay in but who knows. I may gas up the buggy and get down to the Big Easy.

BET Awards Show 2009

I may be one of the few people who actually enjoyed the BET Awards show. I have to be honest: Had it not been for MJ's passing, watching would have not been a priority. I didn't know who Keri Hilson was and Soulja Boy music is much too young for my taste. I love lyrics and "sanging"! Like the Mighty O'Jays! Yeah! I got the chance to see them and some of my favorite artists from then and now! Although Marlon Wayans let it slip on the Red Carpet, I still enjoyed seeing New Edition as the opening act. And my man Jamie Foxx did a hell of a good job. And no, he does not owe anyone an apology for saying that MJ was a Black man that we loaned to the world. My highlights were Guy, Keith Sweat, Tevin Campbell Janet Jackson & Maxwell. And that tribute Tyrese, Johnnie Gill and Trey Songz did for the O'Jays made me very happy that I had tuned in. I thought I had gone to join MJ! I loved it! Can you believe that my cousin Anthony called in the middle of Beyoncé's rendition of Ave Maria?! That joker had better be glad that I have DVR or he would have been sh!t outta luck! Do you know what he wanted? He needed to know how to copy and paste! How to freakin' copy and paste!?? Ugggh! I managed to help him without using all the choice words in my vocabulary. I did let him know that the customer service hours were closing for the night and not to call back!

Anyhoo, I absolutely loved seeing Miss Jackson! That is strength! I instantly prayed for strength and unity for their family. I want the media to back off and let them deal with the difficult tasks ahead of them.

The BET Awards 2009 spoke volumes about the love people have for Michael Jackson when soooo many celebrities came out of the woodworks to participate in the BET Awards Show in a matter of days. I am certain the format changed because of it and they were better for it. Perhaps the unhappy viewers were the younger generation who wanted to see a bunch of entourages on the stage all night and a bunch of thug love in action. For me, not so much!

Billy Mays Too

Ed McMahon, Farrah Fawcett, Michael Jackson and now pitchman Billy Mays all died this week. I can still hear Billy Mays screaming in my ear about OxiClean and Kaboom when I have fallen asleep with the TV on at night. What a week.

But as I think about the number: 50. Bernie Mac, Michael Jackson and now Billy Mays, they all died at 50. I was just telling a cousin about those "round" number death expirations. To me, folks who expire on the "9", 29 or 39, or 49 etc. are still trying to accomplish something. But when they expire on the round number, there is a sense of completeness. Just a personal thought.

I had never bought any OxiClean or Kaboom until last week! I am doing some cleaning and was in Lowe's shopping. I guess it just shows the power of advertising over my selection. I purposely chose Kaboom because I could see and hear Billy Mays' excited pitch.

I bought some Kaboom Tub and Tile Cleaner that worked great. I also bought a Kaboom Scrub-free toilet cleaning system that I have yet to install and some Kaboom Foaming Bowlblaster that smells great but does not clean without user scrubbing action.

RIP Billy Mays!

Dancing My Wig Off!

I have been glued to TVOne programming since Michael Jackson's death. They have been airing his videos, his 30th Anniversary Special and The Jacksons: An American Dream all weekend. I have blogged, twittered and did all I could to process my feelings. I visited Essence.com's site and left my feelings there too. I wrote that I had "danced my wig off to all the Michael Jackson music that has been played." Well lo and behold, I managed to change the channel from TVOne since they were re-broadcasting The Jacksons: An American Dream over to CNN. They were presenting "Michael Jackson: The Man In The Mirror." I watched that and then Larry King Live with guests like Smokey Robinson, Berry Gordy, MJ's friend Miko Brando, Liza Minelli, Usher and Deepak Chopra. Usher said it best when he kept it classy by wanting to remember MJ as the legend and not the rehash negative press. A mother has lost her son. Let her grieve. Go on Usher! Well, I still had not had enough Michael Jackson and continued to watch CNN coverage with Don Lemon. Cori Murray, a writer from Essence magazine, was talking about Michael. When she referred to a comment left by a reader that "she had danced her wig off listening to Michael's music that was being played" sent me into orbit! I felt that my true feelings for Michael had been expressed and someone else felt them. I felt soooo much better. If I can find the post, I will link it but there are so many fan entries on Essence now, I don't know where I posted!

ETA: Finally found it! I am on page 5. The Yolanda comment is mine.

I Can't Believe It!

I cannot believe that MJ has died. I have loved Michael Jackson forever. He has always been one of my favorite performers and artists. He and Prince Rogers Nelson have always been my top 2 favorites.

I heard about Farrah Fawcett as I drove home from work and was saddened. I will always remember that Farrah hair that all women had to have! I remember my aunt having that same layered do!

When I arrived home, I took a nap. I had no idea that Michael had died. My husband told me later. I watched the ABC special report and realized how difficult the price of fame can be. We all know his story but I cannot imagine being unable to move around freely without people and paparazzi stalking me 24/7. I never thought about him having to elude the mobs of fans by entering hotels through kitchens instead of the lobby. We've all seen "The Jacksons: An American Dream". It was on just last weekend and every weekend. LOL.

My wish is for both Michael and Farrah to finally rest in peace.

I'm Baaack!!!!

Happy Memorial Day!!!



My last post was April 1! Wow. Time has really flown. Been busy at work trying to wrap up. I should be excited about summer vacation beginning in 2 days but I can't. I signed up to work summer school! I know. I know. What the hell was I thinking? But I have good reasons.

My regular workday is so hectic and filled with constant interruptions that I can barely get my work done. My library is used by everybody for everything without any thought of what my plans are. So working the extra month, with pay, will give me much needed time to get caught up. I can shift my books and re-label the shelves. Things that need to be done.

Now had I been able to get these things done before school was out, I would not mind another librarian coming to work in my space. But I have a nemesis who wants my job. With her having 33 years experience, she would have been able to work in my library for the summer. I was not going to give her the satisfaction of working in my new library and jack it up while I'm gone!

I am also trying to make provisions for my future endeavors. Giving up a month of vacation my give me just the time I need to prepare for my passion. I am about to read Chris Gardner's new book, Start Where You Are. I need a little fire to be lit under my feet. I have been inspired by his story and love watching his video interviews!

Oh Well. . .

Before the ink could dry on my last post, I found out that Coach Calipari has accepted the job at the University of Kentucky. After all, I came home beat down tired today and found myself asleep by 5:30 and slept until 10:45! I had not a clue what was going on in the news. Congratulations Coach Calipari. I am not mad at the man for becoming the highest paid coach in the country. He'd just better win!

Now how ironic is this that the official press conference will take place on April Fools Day???!!! I know that a lot of Memphians would breathe a collective sigh of relief but somehow, I think such will not be the case.

I can only imagine what I would do if Blogger Geniuses tapped my shoulder to make me the Oprah of bloggers! I would be a blogging fool!

Calipari's Leaving???

All this week Memphis has been abuzz about whether or not University of Memphis' head basketball coach John Calipari will leave to coach at the University of Kentucky. I will be the first to admit that while I am not really a basketball fan, I must weigh in on this topic. I don't care! Don't get me wrong. Calipari has recruited some great players to town to wear the Tiger jersey. And sure we got to the Sweet 16 playoffs this year before losing to Missouri and even came close as we played in the NCAA Final 2 last year. But the victory eluded us as we lost to Kansas. People have said that Memphis' conference, C-USA, doesn't provide enough stiff competition. But the Tigers emerged last year to break undefeated records. But they just could not bring home the title. Folks say that "Calipari is a better recruiter than a coach". I tend to fall into this category. Perhaps my views are jaded but hell, when your game is basketball or whatever your craft is, do the damn thing. Nothing frustrates me more than watching a player miss a free throw or an easy lay up. I do not accept the excuse that "Oh, Memphis has never been a good free throw shooting team". . . Make that happen. Why do little boys who grow up wanting to be great players not practice all skills? Recruit players who CAN shoot free throws. Being an educator has me too optimistic huh?

Calipari may have said to himself that if he doesn't bring the title home this time, he would leave. If Coach Calipari wants to leave, let him. When it is time for me to leave my job, I sure as hell don't want anybody trying to convince me to stay. People do set goals for themselves and once a person has made up their mind, respect that.

If Coach Calipari leaves, the university will not close, recruits may change their minds but you can best believe, some basetball will be played on the courts of the University of Memphis.

Been A Long Time

I haven't posted since Superbowl Sunday! Life kinda takes over sometimes. The Steelers were victorious. All is well. I have been enamoured with my latest acquisition: a Nintendo Wii! I absolutely love it!!! I play the games and exercise with the Wii Fit. I did not realize how off balance I was until the Wii Fit! I am getting better and becoming more aware of my stance and posture.

Decisions, Decisions!

One minute and thirty six seconds left in the Superbowl. I don't have a clear favorite even yet. I mean, I had the beautiful hair of Troy Polamalu of the Steelers, their Head Coach, Mike Tomlin, has ties to Memphis and Ben Roethlisberger being injured a couple years ago on his motorcycle only to return to football. And today with Matt Lauer, President Obama endorsed the Steelers!

But my heart strings were tugged with the Cardinals Larry Fitzgerald's touching story about not taking the time to see his mother before she died. Not to forget the Comeback Kid, Kurt Warner who took the St. Louis Rams to the Superbowl and won it, only to be sent packing! Cold blooded!

But Arizona gave us John McCain and doesn't recognize the federal holiday of Dr. King's Birthday. . .

I don't know. May the best team win!

My Favorite Superbowl Commercial

I'm just 45 minutes into the Superbowl and the commercials. The polls are not closed but I have already declared my winner: the Budweiser beer commercial featuring the two horses: Daisy and Romeo! I love it.
