Last year I stayed in the Las Vegas Hilton. Manilow was not only their featured act, and he didn't just have an entire story within the hotel devoted to his products, but his image and music was everywhere. The elevator ride to the 11th floor was hell. Heck, just being on hold waiting for an operator to take my hotel reservation a month before while being forced to listen to Manilow was unbearable. I got to the room and turned on the TV and it defaulted to the hotel's channel. I immediately was assaulted with more Manilow sounds and images. I decided to leave the hotel for a while and to take the tram to the strip. On the way I was further assaulted with HUGE Manilow banners. I boarded the tram. I thought that if I didn't look out the window back at the hotel I wouldn't see any more Manilow stuff or hear any for hours until I had to return. I would deal with the Manilow monster later after some fun on the strip. The tram doors shut. I was immediately assaulted with a Hilton ad for the Manilow show played over the loudspeaker.

They had to taser me...
