    i don't get it

    wouldn't it be simpler to just take vodka and add it to OJ and call it a screwdriver?

    Yeah, it was sweet!

    When we were in Vancouver last year to see PJ we went to the Capilano Bridge park and they had a few spots with the glass floor. Not 50+ stories up but to be out over the gorge felt ever weirder.

    Going to the Grand Canyon in May as we drive cross country and I understand they have a platform like that t here as well. I love that shit.

    You're 0 for 2 today! The glass floor is a square that you can stand on at the edge of the outdoor area of the bar...you can see all the way to the bottom..50 or so stories below!

    I heard about the Grand Canyon one - it's supposed to be incredible! The Sears tower in Chicago has something similar as well...don't think I could do it though!

    I am not sure about that but I would try. I was in Chicago partying like a fool with some clients a few years back and we ended up at a bar near the top of one of those huge ass buildings downtown (Hancock maybe?) and I put my head against the window and looked down and I got dizzy and started sweating. Walked back to the bar and drank more...chalked it up to the booze. But that was some pretty tall shit.

    We were asked to leave after a few drinks. Apparently that is one of the few spots in Chicago that doesnt appreciate rowdy knuckleheads on an expense account.
    We were at a rooftop spot behind right field at Wrigley earlier and they let us do pretty much anything we wanted. There was a shit-ton of us so it was pretty impressive that they were OK with the shenanigans.

    Hancock? Not so much.

    Vegas is great for that -- as long as you are not smacking anyone or puking on anyone you are pretty much given free reign.

    Also, if you get a chance, go to the Cafe Bellagio (it's right in the conservatory)...it has the BEST baked french onion soup I've ever had in my life...and I've tried it just about everywhere!
