t's high noon in Sin City on New Year's Eve and a petite blonde wearing jeans, leather boots and a black, sheer blouse is tucked in a corner table at the Pink Taco Mexican restaurant in the Hard Rock Hotel.

WELL DONE, CHRISTIAN RED. IF that is your real name!

During his interview, Morton explained that the name comes from a menu item, and that if the restaurant were truly "vagina-themed", there would "vaginas all over the walls".

Well, Duh.

Pink Tacos are Vegas' equivalent of "to the egress."

In the article she wonders if she should have taken the $200000 to shut up instead of the $25000 to spill the beans.

I believe Thomas Merton wrote about this dilemma in The Seven Story Payoff.
