Talk about hype. "Once completed it is anticipated the Moon Resort and Casino's ten thousand rooms will be fully booked for 60 months in advance." Please.

Bob Stupak's "Vegas World," a low-rent tourist mill casino, had an Spacearrhoidic theme. Starry ceilings, lunar module hung from the cieling, rocket pillars with flicker-bulb flames, etc. It was wonderfully depressing and tacky. It's gone now, replaced with the Stratosphere.

This new place . . . I dunno. I really like the fact that they have a Soviet N1 moon rocket at the end of one of the wings. But will a space-tourism concept really fill 10,000 rooms?

Maybe, for versimilitude, they'll circulate stale air, use recycled water, and spread fine gray metallic-stinking dust everywhere. Food will either be rehydrated, canned, or come from a hydroponic garden fertilized with hotel-room sewage. Guests will have their gonads irradiated at night to represent cosmic ray exposure during ETA time on The Strip.

goddamn it! I was hoping it was actually ON the moon and not in Vegas.
