Of lost credit cards and LOVE

11:06 AM PT, Sep 21 2007
Love I would not advise ever letting your credit card out of your sight in Las Vegas for every obvious reason.

But last night I lost mine at the Mirage. 

I was at the Mirage to check out some fine tuning done to Cirque's LOVE followed by a meal at the Mirage's Carnegie Deli. After much panicked searching of my home and car, I faced facts and called the Mirage looking for my plastic needle in a haystack.

But my credit card was with security. It turns out I left the credit card at the Carnegie after using it to pay for the meal. The staff of the deli alerted security who picked up the card at once. It almost makes me not mind the Carnegie's ridiculous $3 sharing charge.
 
By the way, the most important change in LOVE is the removal of the unpopular "Blackbird" segment. The new segment has the Beatles performing "Blackbird" instead of an actor simply reciting the words. It is a definite improvement.

Glad you got your card back. Heck, at the original in NYC you can't even pay with a credit card...
