HGTV had a program tonight featuring the best outdoor pool I have ever seen.

No, it isn't on the strip, but it is (somewhere) in Las Vegas.

Absolutely over the top in beauty and features.

For example:

300 mature palm trees for shade.

Sand from Malibu for a poolside beach.

Meandering, stunningly beautiful pool.

Astounding tubs / spas, one with 100 bottles of champagne mixed with the water.

Kudos to Ramin Messian, the owner.

YMMV, but I've always thought that the pool at the Flamingo was amazing. Especially cool in the mornings, when nobody's there and the sunlight reflects off the pink-tinted windows to fill the pool area with a pink glow. Don't forget to pay your respects at the Bugsy Siegel monument.

I would like to pay my respects to Jimmy Hoffa as well. If only I knew where he is buried. SIGH

He is listed in the yellow pages under cement.

Actually I believe he is in a hubcap, as the Mob bought a smelting plant just days prior to his disappearance.

In November 2011, in a book by Adrian Humphreys titled The Weasel: a Double Life in the Mob,
the former driver of Jimmy Hoffa and a mob associate Marvin "The Weasel" Elkind
(also referred to by government handlers as "the Cigar")
stated that Hoffa is buried in the foundations of the Renaissance Center in Detroit, Michigan.

Yeah, I would believe anything a guy named Weasel told me.

I am sure he told the FEDS what they wanted to hear.

I have my doubts as well, but he did disappear in Michigan
So the rumors about him being in giants stadium are even more unlikely.

I still like the smelting plant theory. Especially after witnesses are eradicated.

Ever try to get DNA from a hubcap ?

Technically, don't you have to say, 'he was last seen in Michigan'? That would be a fact. Where he was when he disappeared is a question, isn't it?

If you got it, flaunt it !

Real estate mogul Ramin Messian spent an absolute fortune—$7 million, to be exact—to build the largest private swimming pool in Las Vegas in his backyard.
