The old Maxim is the current Westin. A very different Maxim.

Maxim is the only non-serious magazine I now subscribe to.

No, wait... Maxim and Popular Science are the two non-serious magazines I subscribe to.

No, wait... They're the only two magazines I subscribe to.

No... They're the only two magazines for which I pay a subscription for. Esquire just started sending me copies, and GQ - but I haven't cracked either.

No... I just started getting Entrepreneur, but that's probably the result of someone selling my name and address to a marketing agency, but it was a better hit than either Esquire or GQ, neither of which I have any interest in.

So, let's see - babes, toys, and money. The three reading material essentials for a twenty something male in America.

(I read Maxim for the delightful articles...)

Whatever. In five years it'll be an outdated dump, and in twenty years they'll tear it down and build the next one. I think the Penthouse Casino in Atlantic City lasted all of five years, if that. And I don't just mean the business, I mean the building, too.

Maxim has built it's reputation on Super Bowl parties. Apparently, the Maxim party has been the hottest ticket in town for the last several Super Bowls. (snore) I still remember when Studio 54 was the hottest ticket in town. All things pass.

Funny, I was in Vegas recently and couldn't help but feeling for the cocktail ladies in the casinos along Freemont Street.
Same ladies that were serving drinks 30 years ago, same skimpy outfits, Just not quite as appealing.
Even at Ceasars there was an air of old lady in many of the waitresses.
