Looks Great for her age!

Happened to stumble into this buried somewhere on my homepage. The Linda Blair of current times, in front of the famous poster for this landmark movie.  It's a classic and only jarring the first few times you see it.  I'd like to get that poster.  They've redone that house in Georgetown to drive away the looky-loos. The big money caused her to leave her native St. Louis.  She supposedly lives on a spread of high desert land north of L.A. where she keeps horses and dogs.  There's no husband and there are no kids.  She seems to prefer the slow lane because she was once in the fast lane.  Shacking up with Rick James would be considered the fast lane.  What was she thinking?  What was she on?

Las Vegas is a resort.  Yes ... point taken.  I've gotten safes in some FL hotels that could hold a 14" to 16" laptop and other stuff layered in.  It comes with the territory that, when there are resort fees, there will be other cheesy ways to jack up the tab. The issue I'm lamenting is when there isn't one in the room, yet the location and price point call for it.

Add the deceptive safe thing with the deceptive Fridge in Room that is useless as the fridge is stocked with their own drinks and if you move anything to use the fridge, they charge you for it even when you do not drink their stuff. They might as well NOT say there is a fridge in the rooms. Las Vegas is terrible for this having the advertising of safes and fridges in every room, but the Safe is a joke, barely able to hold a passport and wallet and the fridges are stocked with for charge stuff, so there is no Fridge for use by the room renter.
