...not so hard times, maybe?  Anyway, both Vegas casinos and the brothels on the outskirts of Vegas are seeing both their revenues drop, though Vegas' drop is much less pronounced, going from about $615 million to about $515 in casino revenues from December to March. The Nevada Brothel Owners' Association says their business may have dropped as much as 45%. 

Seems gas prices are a big cause of that, truckers are a major source of business for brothels (truckers seek services from prostitutes?  GTFO!), and the cost of diesel is leaving them with a little less extra money.  I do think as the cost of fuel continues to be high, places like Vegas, that rely heavily on tourist money are going to feel some serious pain.  Wonder if Harry Reid will decide we indeed can drill our way out of our oil shortages if Vegas starts hurting in a big enough way?
