Two of boxing’s greatest practitioners will toe the line on July 21st, Bernard “The Executioner” Hopkins and Ronald “Winky” Wright. This fight does not necessarily shape up to be the most exciting fight, but should be a real tactical war. Both fighters should be hungry and after one more significant win.
Bernard Hopkins is a future Hall of Famer and defended his middleweight title 20 straight times. I have rolled in his Entourage plenty of times and I know he is a very hungry and is as intense as they come (If you watch tapes of Hopkins fights from the late 90’s its easy to pick me out in his Entourage; I am the handsome, young, sharp dressed guy, usually Versace or Armani’d down, also the only guy who is not African American). Hopkins is a tough customer that can almost always find a way to win with his rough and tumble style. He is a defensive master who has patience to wait for an opening then strikes. His boxing style is a lot like my Game.
Hopkins has power, but has usually knocked out opponents by grinding them down. He should be physically stronger than Wright, but I think his mental strength is what is going to give him an edge.
Winky Wright is a defensive master with a venomous jab. He keeps his hands very high, but is also adept at slipping punches. He has two big wins over Sugar Shane Mosley, a dominant victory over Felix “Tito” Trinidad, and a good win over Ike “Bazooka” Quartey. With his airtight defense he has looked very dominant over otherwise great fighters.
The Prediction
Although Hopkins final days have to be soon (he is 42 years old), I think he has one more great performance left. If there is anyone out there that can solve the puzzle that is Winky Wright it is Hopkins. He is really going to have to be aggressive, but willing to exchange, and rough up Winky. On the flip side, Winky might dominate Hopkins. But I think Hopkins win over Antonio Tarver proves that he still has plenty left. I see Hopkins taking a hard fought decision. That is of course if the judges see it that way. The Rest is Up to You………
Side Note:
Let’s hope Arturo Gatti stays retired. The only category that Gatti beat Alfonso Gomez in was “better hair” during their fight last Saturday. Having “better hair” is important for a Playboy out on the town, but in a boxing ring it doesn’t matter too much. However, Gatti was swooping a pretty fly girl after the fight so the night wasn’t a total loss…

On the evening of July 14th in Atlantic City, we might have the Fight of The Year when two boxers/playboys, Arturo “Thunder” Gatti and Alfonso Gomez square off. Alfonso Gomez is best known for “The Contender” series (the only reality show I really watch, save America’s Next Top Model, which I only watch because I have swooped on a bunch of the girls that have been on that Show), where he proved himself to be an action packed fighter with plenty of heart. Unless you have lived under a rock for the last 16 years, you know Arturo Gatti as the most action packed fighter with the most heart of our generation. Hell, he has been involved in four of Ring Magazine’s Fights of the Year, and has at least a dozen more that could easily have taken those honors. The big questions for this fight are: How much does Gatti have left? And, Is Gomez the real deal? We will find out on July 14th in a fight that is all but guaranteed to be dope.
An interesting side not is that Mickey Ward will be working Gatti’s corner. You know Mickey Ward, the guy that went to the best war of the 2000’s (the war in Iraq being the worst war of the 2000’s) in a trilogy with Gatti. It will be interesting to see if Ward will be a plus in his corner. He will get Gatti in shape, no doubt, but will he tell Gatti to box and jab and not war? But I truly believe that having Ward as a motivator for Gatti will help. Gomez is for sure the hungrier fighter.
Good Gatti Video
Everyone loves a warrior. And throughout his whole career, Arturo has been The quintessential warrior. Gomez appears to be the heir apparent. We will see on June 14th. Let’s break it down:
Big edge to Gatti. His left hook to the body is the thing nightmares are made of. (Which is weird because my Game is the thing that gives nightmares to rival players.) Gomez can punch, but hasn’t shown the kind of one punch power that Gatti can.
LL Cool J, Mamma Said Knock You Out
Physical Attributes
I have sparred with Gatti and he is a monster, but Gomez is the Natural welterweight. This could be dangerous for Gatti, since Gomez is somewhat like Carlos Baldomir in this respect.
Gatti VS Ward
Hand Speed
This is an interesting one. Gatti would appear to have the faster hands, but if Gomez can rough up Gatti, we could see him slow down considerably.
Good Gatti Video
Footwork
Same as hand speed. Gatti would appear to have the edge, but in the middle rounds when this fight show turn into an all out war, this could be even.
Defense
Gomez is no Pernell Whitaker or Winky Wright, but Gatti’s defense is like regular guy’s Game in a Nightclub: Full of holes.
Gatti is as durable as a VVS diamond. But he cuts if you breathe on him too heavy. He cuts easier than window glass of a socialite’s mansion that you are heisting. Gomez has proven to be mighty durable against the competition he has faced so far. Keep in mind though; the competition Gomez has faced couldn’t lace up the gloves of the competition Gatti has faced.
LL Cool J ft. Keith Murray, Fat Joe & Foxy Brown- I Shot Ya (G Manifesto Certified Track)
Heart
Not to take anything away from Gomez, but nobody can be Gatti in this category (save your humble author). If the chips are down, Gatti only becomes more dangerous. A coward dies a thousand deaths and a warrior dies just one. If Gatti loses, best believe he will be carried out on his shield.
Gatti come from behind win
Killer instinct
Gatti. If Gatti has got you, then he has got you. He can kill you fast, he can kill you slow, and he isn’t afraid to put a tag on your toe.
Endurance
Gomez being the younger man, should have a slight edge here.
Ring Generalship
Gatti has been in more wars than Alexander the Great. He knows his way around the ring. Sometimes, when he gets into trouble, however he forgets to clinch. This can get him into serious trouble. But keep in mind, this is why people love Gatti so much, he is a flawed warrior (unlike why people like me so much, I my Game has zero flaws, but I still remain The Peoples Champ).
This fight will come down to heart as I see it. And I would love to see Gatti pull off one more miracle. But the good news is, if Gatti does lose, we will have another warrior to take his place. Alfonso Gomez.
No disrespect to Gomez, but I will be strongly in Gatti’s corner come July 14th. As far as the smart money? I am placing my bet right before the fight (I still have to assimilate some data). But you can bet that you will hear about who I picked after the fight. The Rest is Up to You……….
“Mason delivers like Holyfield in the 9th once again. I learned from underground sources of your “lock down” on the gentlemen’s clubs in NYC, NO, LA, Vegas and Miami for some time now, and it is a work of art to say the least. What is your policy on being strapped in a club? Grinder and shakers could feel the piece, so to speak. Word on the street is your order take out from the finest restaurants in town to your booth and you hand feed the meat performers the finest pâté, caviar and escargot money can buy? I tend to think you leave out key elements in your manifesto’s out of fear a up and coming top G like myself may dissect key ingredients to your finest dishes?
In any event, exotics are exotics, much like a zoo exhibit and I even heisted a few in my day just for fun, making out with hard cash, soiled panties and even one exotics rollie. I know it sounds cruel, but a G is a G, and we do what we do best! A toast to you Mason on another hard hitting manifesto.”

The Fernando Vargas VS Ricardo Mayorga could also be the Fight of the Year. Good press conference. Good Business. Machismo.
LL Cool J, Rock The Bells (G Manifesto Certified Track)
It’s no secret that G’s are often found in Gentleman’s Clubs. As for me, I was kind of sucked into the lifestyle (so to speak). Why? Dumb question. Gentleman’s Clubs are pound for pound, round for round, night for night, consistently the best incubators of Fly girls to swoop for The G. Another benefit is you can see how fly a girl really is before you swoop on her due to the lack of clothing Exotic Dancers wear at work (if female pharmaceutical reps went to work half naked, I am sure would have become a Doctor instead of a Heist Man, make sense?) No surprises. I don’t like surprise parties let alone surprise un-fly girls.
The advantage of The Gentleman’s Club Theorem is once you are running full throttle, you can swoop two to three new, fresh girls a week even before the weekend starts. Without breaking a sweat. Now if you say you don’t want to swoop three more fly girls a week; have fun lying to yourself, Skippy. And your head must be more messed up than cornrows put in by blindfolded upper-middle class white suburban girls. You can’t just roll up in The Gentleman’s Club and keep on spitting the same paper thin routines you have been spitting. You can’t keep playing checkers. You need to play Chess. You need to recondition your mind. So Get Ready, you need to read The Gentleman’s Club Theorem (I also call it “The Local Bar Theorem” because my “local bar” in each city just happens to have topless girls. How is your local bar?).
The Temptations Get Ready
Lock the Spot Down
This is probably the most important aspect of The Gentleman’s Club Theorem. You want to have the whole spot under your influence. This is going to take time, work, and repeated showings at The Gentleman’s Club. It starts with the valet guys. They are the first ones you see when you approach The Gentleman’s Club. They can give you info on which girls are working, which Exotics have knocked off work early, or if a hitter from a rival faction is waiting at the bar to levitate you. This is life or death type stuff. Locking these guys down along with the head bartender and the head Bouncer/ Manager is the trinity of Gentleman’s Club Lock Downs (and I don’t mean that Super fly Model style Exotic Dancer I know from Scores in New York City named Trinity, real name Rachel, either).
The Goal is to be the flyest Cat in the Litter. Which really isn’t too hard these days since so many fools are coming Straight Outta tha Mall. (I go boutique, or work with designer and tailors direct in case you wanted to know.) Or at best regular guy is dressing straight out of Details or GQ Magazine which in case you didn’t know is run by Gay guys. Nothing against gay people, (In fact, I love Bi girls) and gay guys are cool, since they are non-competitors. I just find it funny when straight guys that hate gay people dress like gay people. So, anyways, to avoid confusion, dress like this as an example; Black with Sugar Bear Blue pinstripe custom Prada, Bespoke two button suit with notched lapels and side vents, Grimace purple Gucci shirt, Prada cap toed lace ups, tie optional and Violet Brioni Pocket square (and I don’t mean that Catwalk style, La Perla Exotic Dancer I know named Violet from The Penthouse Executive Club in New York City, real name Jennifer either). It’s also a good move to get a good haircut or shave before hand. Be careful thought, these days you can even get bad haircut at Drucker’s in Beverly Hills . Although, you would be hard pressed to have a better haircut experience than Drucker’s (outside of course, Taylors of Old Bond Street London and Geo F. Trumper, London , the original on Curzon Street ). I mean, that’s where Bugsy Siegel used to get his hair cut for God’s sake. In fact, Benny and I both got our last hair cuts at the same place. (The Shave of Beverly Hills is decent also as well as Aidan Gil in New Orleans )
The Chiffons, He’s So Fine (Ever since I was a kid I have thought The Chiffons were singing about me with this song)
Grease is a necessary component of Locking a place down. Gentleman’s Club + Grease + G = Lockdown. And I mean Grease everyone. Refer to: The Art of The Grease (click here). Greasing is priceless (and I don’t mean that Cajun Cutie with Flapper Hair Exotic Dancer I know named Priceless from Rick’s Cabaret in New Orleans , real name Erica either).
Foxy Brown ft. Jay -Z – Ill Be
Chill and Lamp
Very important. Relax like Mitch “Blood” Green’s perm. You have to seem like you have more important things on your mind than Beautiful, naked girls. Which of course, you don’t. When ever I am running The Local Bar Theorem I always seem very distracted. But in reality, my mind is working overtime, running computations, figuring out which girls are friends with whom, which bouncers are going to try to put salt in my game, which girls are best prospects for The Trio, etc. Relax and have patience (and I don’t mean that Sophisto Style, Mac Gloss Girl Exotic Dancer I know named Patience from Hustler Club in San Francisco, real name Veronica either).
T-pain ft. Yung Joc, Buy you a drink
Friendly and Gentlemanly
You want to give off positive waves of energy when you are Locking down a Gentleman’s Club. Catch a girl that falls off balance coming off the stage with her clear plastic high-heels. Light every girl’s cigarette before yours (or do a double light move). Let waitresses pass by with a tray full of Ketel One shots in front of you (worth its weight in heron). Offer girls waters occasionally instead of cocktails. Tip waitresses for no reason. Tell Dancers which guys are sure thing Marks. Give some encouragement to an Exotic that is having a rough night. Know The Game. Don’t bug girls that are working and fleecing a customer (and I don’t mean that caliente Colombiana style Exotic Dancer with Shakira hair, I know named Felice from Solid Gold in North Miami Beach, real name Tesara either).
Fabulous ft. Ne-Yo, You make me better
Back Story
You need an Air tight Back Story. First off, you are Always from somewhere else, even if you live full time in the city you are currently in. But you do “keep” a place in the current city you are at. Or you are staying at some Fly hotel in town for an undetermined amount of time. Always act like CASH is no object. Come up with a real vague occupation when asked, like; “I am in international business”, “I am in the Caviar trade” or “My family produces Champagne in France ”. Have fun with it. Pick something that sounds legit but implies a lot of money but has an illegal tinge to it. Exotic Dancers like that stuff. Saying, “I am a real estate agent” doesn’t work. If you have a good back story, and you follow The Local Bar Theorem to The Seventh Letter it will spread through The Gentleman’s Club, like only gossip, rumors, and Tragedy does. Use your Imagination. Sky’s the limit. (And I don’t mean those Hippy flippy, SuicideGirl style sister Exotic Dancers I know named Imagination and Skye from Deja Vu in Seattle, real names are I think Imagination and Skye, (their parents were hippies) either).
DJ Khaled with Young Jeezy, Juelz Santana, Rick Ross, Lil’ Wayne & Fat Joe, Brown Paper Bag (G Manifesto Certified Track)
Exude Class and Wealth
Although I am the Son of Revolutionary Killers and I have spent plenty of time on The Street, Alleys (and I don’t mean that Fly Exotic Dancer I know named Ally with lips like Angeline from The Spearmint Rhino in Las Vegas, real name Allison either), and The Underworld, I have spent an equal amount of time in the Upperworld with the fortunate and privileged. And, truth be told, the blessed from the Upperworld can be just as treacherous as the dwellers of the Underworld. But that is another story. Throw in a dash of snobbery and arrogance for good measure for the devils pie.
I usually try to target the Exotic or Exotics that know a lot of other girls and will run her mouth about how cool you are to hang out with to all the other Exotics. Always keep Champagne on Ice like Winnipeg at your Crib and treat the girl’s first class. This data will spread to the other girls. You can go to her crib, but chances are her Pug Dog will get his dirty paws all over your Brioni slacks. Better to play on your court (and I don’t mean that dope sunset style Exotic Dancer with Pixie hair, I know named Kourtney from Body Shop in Los Angeles, I think Kourtney is her real name also, either).
Diana ross, It’s my house
Don’t Scalp
Once you have things cooking with The Local Bar Theorem and things are on the up and up, many G’s have the tendency to Pillage and Plunder the Gentleman’s Club. Don’t do it like Zheng Zhilong or Henry Morgan. Don’t scalp like the Indians did on Custer’s Crew. You don’t want to do this. You want to just skim the Cream off the top. Don’t attack with the ferociousness of a pack of Lions on the Serengeti in Kenya (and I don’t mean that illmatic coco Exotic Dancer with Kelly Rowland hair I know named Kenya from Seamless in Las Vegas , real name Kelly, either). Stay low-profile and The Local Bar Theorem will be the gift that keeps on giving, like an Atari during the days of “Just Say No”. Or a fresh out the box Desert Eag with no bodies attached. Or a never been fired seven plus two.
D’Angelo ft. AZ, Lady
The Whirlpool Effect
Once you spend a little time, and Dress Sharp, Grease, Chill, act Gentlemanly, have a good Back Story, Exude Class and Wealth, have Champagne on Ice like Alberta (and I don’t mean that dope Latina Exotic Dancer I know named Alberta from Scores in Las Vegas, real name Jasmine, either) and Don’t Scalp you will create what is called in the industry “The Whirlpool Effect”. This happens when you step in the spot and every Exotic looks at you like a welcome friend. They don’t want your money. They don’t want you for dances. You are their refuge and safe haven, or a flight to quality (much like investing in gold bullion during down markets when done correctly). And they all just keep getting sucked in (so to speak) hence the name, “The Whirlpool Effect”.
Camp Lo, Black Hollywood (First look)
Currently, I have the “The Whirlpool Effect” going in Clubs in at least seven different cities, and that’s just America (not counting Canada ). If you are able to do this, you will have enough Exotic Dancer Jewelery and Clothes left behind at your Crib to open up your own Boutique Clothing and Jewelery stores. You should look into it.

(This is the first “Guest” G Manifesto. By The Dinnertime Bandit)
Dear G Manifesto,
“He has the agility of a cat, the cunning of a spy and the eye of a jeweler.”
“He can break into your house while you’re eating dinner and be gone with all your valuables before dessert.”
Following his arrest in Antwerp, Belgium on 14th December 2006 by Belgian Federal Police, I realized just how much of a G, Alan really is. His criminal career has come to a sudden and abrupt end, and he faces the rest of his life in jail due to Parole Violations and the crimes he is also wanted for. He may also end up serving time in Belgium itself.
Alan William Golder, born on 9th August 1955, is quite possibly America’s most talented jewel thief of all time. His story far surpasses that of the “Dinnerset Gang”, as he worked alone.
The son of a career criminal who was caught several times, and a mother who worked part-time as a waitress, living in a dilapidated wooden shack in Queens, Alan Golder knew he came from the wrong side of an American society that places so much emphasis on material wealth and status.
Alan turned to crime because he couldn’t legally have what other kids had. His first theft a matchbox toy car from Woolworths aged 6 years old. By the age of 10 he had graduated to stealing bikes. At 16, he dropped out of high school to pursue crime full-time, first hitting small businesses and then home burglaries for baubles by Faberge, and jewelry from Harry Winston and David Webb. By 21, Golder was stealing millions in jewels, funneling them onto the black market through a New York City jewelry store which had Genovese crime family fences. His equipment consisted of a ski mask, large flashlight and a long screwdriver. He never carried a gun, but always wore tan Isotoner gloves, which appeared less suspicious than black ones.
Alan used Architectural Digest and Unique Homes to scope out suitable targets, as well as the advice of the Genovese Crime Family, who knew only too well the route that rich jewelry kept to.
In the late ’70s Mr. Golder stole from the houses of talk-show host Johnny Carson, country singer Glen Campbell, author and screenwriter Irving Wallace and Jackie O’s mother.
According to his own story Golder reached the zenith of his criminal career in the late 1970s, after coming to the attention of mob figures while regularly disposing of high-quality hot gems at a Manhattan jewelry store that was a front for the Genovese organized crime family. The store’s two owners and a Genovese associate named “Figgy” (Anthony Ficarotta), saw the young thief’s potential and groomed him for bigger and better heists. They taught him to look for anything bearing such designer names as David Webb, Carl Faberge, Harry Winston and Tiffany, and to leave less-valuable baubles behind.
Golder’s overseers were members of a jewelry fencing operation so sophisticated that a diamond necklace stolen in the United States one week would be for sale on the European black market the next. The FBI’s code name for it’s investigation of the organization was “Gold Ring.”
Golder’s mob handlers instructed him on how the affluent usually took their most precious gems with them as they migrated seasonally, and had him follow victims to such places as the Hamptons, N.Y., Newport, R.I., and Nantucket Island, Mass., in the summer, Houston and Bel Air in the fall, and Palm Beach, Fla., in the winter. Despite being a star performer, Golder was pressured into scoring even bigger and was told by his overseers to go for the bigger “stones” – the diamond, rubies and emerald rings that some wealthy women wore all the time, even to bed.
Between 1976 and 1980, the FBI estimated that Golder had stolen at least $25 million worth of gold and precious gems from the homes of some of the richest and most famous people in America.
He stripped a 6-carat pear-shaped diamond ring right off the finger of Mrs. Glen Campbell as she stood screaming in the dining room of her hilltop mansion.
A similar scene was repeated with oil baroness Marjorie Phillips, from whom Golder grabbed a 21-carat diamond, and from Johnny Carson’s first ex-wife, Joanna, whom he forced to open a safe containing $250,000 in jewelry.
Things changed for Golder on Dec. 4, 1978, when multimillionaire developer Lawrence Lever walked into the master bedroom of his Old Brookville, New York mansion and found two ski-masked men ransacking it. As he tried to reach a shotgun hidden in the closet, the intruders drew guns and one shot him in the chest. Golder, under the pressure of the mob,was trying to “train” two young thai men in the art of his style of crime. One of the Thai men came armed. A confrontation in the estate ensued and Lawrence Lever ended up losing his life. Golder was sentence to 15 years to life, in exchange for a deal where he informed on 24 mob figures, most in New York City, the rest spread all over America.
Golder was paroled from prison in June 1996, after serving the minimum amount of time on a 15-years-to-life sentence for the 1978 murder of Long Island real estate developer Lawrence Lever. In that incident, he is not believed to have been the triggerman. It is believed that “Boonlert Thanarajakools” of Thailand was the triggerman. He is thought to be in Thailand since 1978.
His Unsolved Mysteries page (http://www.unsolved.com/1104-Golder.html) states “Since his parole in 1996, authorities estimate he has stolen $5 million in gems from estates in Connecticut, New York, Pennsylvania and New Jersey. In November 1997, Golder disappeared from his Queens, New York apartment and went on the run. He is known to have contacts in Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Texas and Florida. Golder is in great physical shape and is known to frequent gyms, tanning salons, fine restaurants and nightclubs.”
Date: October 1997.
Location: New York City, NY.
The Score: Police are investigating whether Golder may have been responsible for the heist of $500,000 in jewelry from the home of the consul general of Thailand as she was entertaining 15 dinner guests in New York City.
Date : October 2nd 1997.
Location: Scarsdale, NY.
The Score: Alan Golder is suspected of stealing $50,000 worth of jewelry from a house in Scarsdale, NY, as 30 people celebrated the Jewish New Year, Rosh HaShana, downstairs.
Date: January 10th-11th 1998.
Location: Preston Hollow, suburb of Dallas, Texas.
The Score: Alan William Golder is suspected in the theft of least 100 pieces of jewelry valued at about $1 million, from a “secured area” in the bathroom of the home of billlionaire and republican fundraiser, Harold Simmons.
On Dec. 14, police in Belgium collared Golder, 51, in Antwerp, the diamond capital of the world. He is not currently charged with any crime yet. He has been held for over 6 months now, and is not allowed phone or mail contact. It is not known if he is allowed a court-appointed lawyer. The US wants his extradition as soon as possible, but the Belgian authorities are holding things up.
Please understand this is a very basic summary of Alan Golder’s life and crimes. I have tried to demonstrate why it’s an interesting case for your site to feature, and I believe the public would like to hear the story.
Kind Regards
DTB
Big Daddy Kane, Smooth Operator (G Manifesto Certified Track)
I have been a huge advocate of The Wynn Las Vegas even before I went to the grand opening in 2005. I have had a sizeable position in the stock since back in 2003 (when it was trading at about $13.00 on the New York Stock Exchange, today it sits in the mid eighties). So I figured to protect my investment I might as well drop some scratch in the place.
Wynn was basically Steve Wynn’s opportunity to build his dream hotel. Sure I would have done it a little different, but all in all he did a great job for the $2.7 Billion he spent on it (2,716 rooms so roughly a stick a room). Many times I have used the Wynn as my Base of Operations in Las Vegas , and I must say it never disappoints. High-end cuisine, plenty of dope/functional bars, decently dope cocktail waitresses, beautiful architecture, some marvels of modern construction, great customer service, and high priced enough to generally speaking keep out the low end riff raff. Most importantly, it is a great place to swoop girls back to and check and see if the shower can fit two comfortably (to save water, for environmental reasons of course)
Nas, Street Dreams
Atmosphere:
As you enter the Wynn you are greeted by a wonderland of flowers, mosaics, and colorful, beautiful tile work. Kind of like an Absinthe buzz mixed with Poppy Seeds, I would imagine (and I don’t mean that Exotic Dancer I know from Seemless named Imagine, real name Cindy either). Steve Wynn, always the innovator, made the focus of the hotel seen from the inside versus the old-school way of making the focus the outside of the hotel. Light also can be seen in the casino giving it a fresh feel. The “Lake of Dreams” is worth checking out preferably from the terrace at Daniel Boulud Brasserie with a bottle of red, a pack of smokes, a Charcuterie board (which is really just like a regular Charcuterie board just a lot more exquisite), an Original NY DB Burger with black truffles and foie gras, Braised short ribs (braised for 5 to 6 hours) a pack of well behaved fly girls that have never been.
AZ featuring Nas, How Ya Livin
Rooms:
I always stay in the multi-room suites. I can tell you first hand that they are worth how ever many C-notes they are peddling them for. The views of Las Vegas are always worth a few moments with a cancer stick in hand and terry cloth robe on while you are warming up for the evening. Even the smaller rooms (which I have gotten a few times when I was doing a “Double Room” move) are plenty spacious. The TV’s are flat screen although I don’t care if my TV’s are flat screened or not. I don’t even like TV unless it’s The Nature Channel, I prefer shows on Predators. The towels in the bathroom aren’t as nice as the ones at my crib but are still very nice. The textured wallpaper and marble sinks are also noteworthy. The Showers are great and I have done a pretty extensive unofficial case study and have discovered that up to three Fly girls and one G (your humble author) can fit in the shower and still emerge very crispy and clean. Complementary products are decent.
Competition:
Softer than Armani leathers. As with anywhere more or less in Las Vegas the competition you get from regular guy is pretty flimsy. Sure you have older guys with major cheese looking to leverage their position, but very few of them have any legitimate Game. As the for the younger guys, its mostly spazzed out California Guys with Shiny Shirts, Striped Shirts, t-shirts with some stupid design on it, or what ever the Shirt De Jour is for the regular guy set. Usually the only people I run into with Deadly, Devilish, Bloody Game are G’s I already know from The G Manifesto Tour. By the way, I have an Angel’s face, but Devilish Game. I actually saw a guy waiting in line to get into Tryst with long blond hair, a shinny shirt, designer jeans, and a Cowboy Hat! Yeah you read that correctly, a Cowboy Hat. I guess he was going for some queer Suburban, Orange County , Surfer, Cowboy fusion look. And I am pretty certain the guy was straight! (You can guess at this point I was completely over Tryst and had no interest in going in). Best to avoid the Nightclubs in Las Vegas in general. I really wish Wynn would raise its prices across the board to keep guys like that Surf-Cowboy out. It was really disturbing for me. Or at least have a stricter door policy at the Casino entrance.
Az featuring Nas, Mo Money Mo Murder
Features:
The restaurants, and of course the rooms are really the draw at Wynn. I guess there is some top-less pool at Wynn as well, but I have never been (I know enough Gentleman’s Clubs in Las Vegas that have topless girls already, and at any given time, my room usually has girls full nude. Plus, by going to the Gentleman’s Clubs, you can avoid those harmful UV rays, which can make you look older.) My favorite spots to chill, swoop girls and throw some food down are Bartolotta Ristorante di Mare, the aforementioned Daniel Boulud Brasserie (great bar) and Alessandro Stratta’s joint, Alex. I have eaten a few times at Alex and I really am hard pressed to think of a better meal I have had. Well, in the case against Alex, I did have great company each time. Alex also does have a secret spot in it that might be the most Tranquillo place in all of Las Vegas . And that’s all I am going to say about it in a effort to keep it Tranquillo.
The G Manifesto Move:
Get rooms on the lower floors. Insist on it. The reason? There are way more floors in Wynn than it seems for the outside (an architectural trick) and you can get caught in the elevators for unreasonable amounts of time. Even though it’s a long night in Vegas, time is always of the essence. The last thing you want to be doing when your trying to meet a girl at the Parasol Down bar before she heads to work is to be caught in a elevator with some Couple from Dallas and four “party guys” from Scottsdale and the elevator stopping on every floor with more uninteresting people. Also, kids often times hit all the buttons and you can get speed bumped on your way up to your room with a few Fly Rhino Girls. Speaking of Parasol Down, you want to lock it down as well as Parasol Up. These are the two most functional bars for swooping girls and for “meeting points” than any place at Wynn. I utilize the Parasol Down Bar early in the night, and the Parasol Up Bar later in the night and early morning. I have had so much success in both these bars, that when ever I walk up to them I can’t help but smile. The Rest is Up to You…
G,
Just FYI, the greatest cyclist in the history of the sport, Eddy Merckx, smoked then (1960s) and still smokes to this day. The guy was a monster on the road, won 5 Tours de France, the world championships, the hour record, too many classics to name, and always came off like a true G. Look him up, you’ll see.
Cheers,
SL

Hard hitting info from the most credible underground source known across the US . I know you have run with a few athletes in your day and have defeated plenty along the way, and I remember seeing you put out your Monte Cristo on Derek Jeter’s forehead like it was an ash tray in Vegas years back and instantly became a big fan. I also witnessed you KO all pro NFL linebacker Shawne Merriman with a right cross in a plush LA nightclub over a nightlife princess, but you fail to mention the power and popularity of the hemp cigarette in this weeks manifesto. Many famous athletes toke the tangi and poke the lettuce wrapped swisher sweets. In fact last night I pulled 4 bong loads, took 3 vaporizer rips, and toasted 2 J’s all while sipping on Krug and having weird sex with 2 Asian supermodels imported freshly off the runway from a high end Tokyo fashion show. Mingas wasn’t happy when I dropped my roach clip in her hair during a doggie session but that’s not my problem now is it Mason?
