Many of my work freinds are at World of Watson this week. It’s a big IBM confernece in Las Vegas . I had work I had to do in Munch.. so I’m heading the other direction.. In solidarity with all of them .. I’m watching  Elvis and Ann Margert in “VivaLas Vegas’ .. a very bizarre movie from 1964.. THe only thing I knew about it before seeign it on a plane was that there’s a scene with the song Viva Las Vegas in the big lebowski..

I wonder if that would ake elvis happy ? It makes me happy !
