Father's Day in Las Vegas

Last night, within the 36 hours or so between my return and my departure, we went to see Wayne Brady at the Mountain Winery. You guys might remember Wayne Brady as the guy on the television show Whose Line Is It Anyway who was phenomenal at improv singing. As part of the pre-show festivities, they asked for song titles to be sprung upon him. The other two guys with him on stage (it was billed as "Wayne Brady and Friends," and these were presumably the friends) chose the titles from the hundreds submitted. Lo and behold, Dara's song title was chosen for Wayne to make up a song around: Father's Day in Las Vegas. All I can say is that -- so far -- my Father's Day in Las Vegas has not been as sad as the song he sung. It involved the father going broke gambling and finally losing the children to Russian gangsters on a roulette bet. I am heading down to dinner now, and I will try to stay out of trouble.
