Lighthouse Visiting
Published Jan 01, 1900
Two young women in a convertible pulled in to a Gas Station to ask directions to the "lighthouses". "Lighthouses?" I asked. "Yes lighthouses. We are new to Las Vegas and just can't seem to find them" The driver replied. Curious, and knowing that Las Vegas is no where near the ocean, I asked, "Why are you looking for lighthouses?" "Oh, there are so many good paying jobs for lighthouses here in the paper.But most want you to appear in person" the passenger answered while pointing to several ads. I stopped pumping my gas and walked over to see the ad. You can imagine their disappointment when I read the ads and explained that it was for "light house keeping".
