Off to Vegas…Early
What a hectic day it’s been for Nickycakes. It started like a fairly normal Friday. Many of you do not know that the Cakes has a part time job close to his house. This is referred to as the “fun job” which gets him out of the house a few days a week. Nevermind that it pays less in a month than a days profits online. It’s actually a good relaxing job that keeps things in perspective and makes Nickycakes not forget where he came from.
Anyway, it was snowing this morning. Normally nothing to be alarmed about. In fact, Nicky kinda loves snow. It’s pretty relaxing and better than cold rain at least. But not today. The Cakes’ girlfriend was on an overseas flight all the previous night, and had a layover in Chicago before finally coming back home. With the snow getting more heavy by the hour, the outlook on the Chi-town -> home flight was looking more and more grim.
Sure enough, the flight gets messed up, and she’s stranded in Chicago. The retards at American Airlines tell her that there are no more flights back home until the 26th….4 days… They also tell her that they refuse to send her to another destination. All the other airlines were completely sold out too, since there is a huge snowstorm over most of the northeast. In short, American Airlines gets the Cakes mushroom stamp of disapproval, right on the forehead.
So the Cakes did what any guy headed to ASW in Vegas on Sunday would do. He put her on a plane to Nevada and moved his flight up a day.
Anyway, long story short, Nickycakes is headed out to vegas in 8 hours. Hopefully there will be some pics and stories to post on here over the weekend.
Unfortunately, this takes away quite a bit of planned preparation time. Here is just one of the plans that will not be making it to ASW as a result: During the John Chow, Amit Mehta, whoever else panel, an unidentified individual walks in with a boombox with no off button, sets it in the corner, pushes play, and lets Rick Astley’s “Never gonna give you up” play on repeat, accomplishing the best timed, most appropriate rickroll in history. Sadly, this will have to wait until a later date.
If you’re goin, be on the lookout for the man himself, minus the viking horns, sunglasses, and clock-radio bling necklace.
Keep it real.
Ahh well hope it all works out for ya and the lady friend. BTW – We hope to expect some good pics and not some of you just fucking showing off any new jewelry.
Say hi to CPA Empire for me.
Peace
LOL… Why??? Why cant you do the Rick Roll? How much preparation does it really require? Shit man, what I would just for the chance to Rick Roll Amit!!!
Nickey Advaliant is looking forward to seeing you in Vegas. it is going to be a very interesting sold out gathering this year! Here is a post on some thoughts re the show and the industry http://www.relevantlyspeaking.com/rs/2008/2/20/vegas-baby-come-see-us-at-affiliate-summit-west.html
You still gonna be around at all at night online? or living IRL till the end of the conference
Ahh… what a sweet boy Nicky turns out to be. You are a little cakester, aren’t you? Aren’t you?
I’m pleased that you put your girlfriend before johnchowhound. There will be so many opportunities to humiliate him that letting one pass by is no real loss. Enjoy!
Rickrolling that whole panel would have been the greatest rick roll in the history of rick rolls.
God I would love to witness that Rick Roll…. it would go down in history – my grandkids would be talking about it
Ack man, I missed you there! Next time
