On June 30, 2008, it was announced that Star Trek: The Experience will be closing on September 1. As reported by TrekMovie.com, a decline in sales along with diminished talks between Cedar Park and the Las Vegas Hilton brought about the conclusion of the attraction.


We will be in Vegas overnight on August 6th. The plan was to come into town, sleep overnight, and take off in the morning...

..but what if I took a night from San Francisco, and stayed in Las VEgas instead? Like I originally planned? It would add one day of hotel ($80 instead of $40), plus tickets for two ($90) and spending money (lets say $100 that was really just surt of shuffled off from one day in San Fran?)...let say an extra $130? If I tighten my belt REALLY REALLY tight, I could make it. It's closing in September and the last time I was in vegas was 97. Again...who knows when I'll be back in the area?

Plus...I really want to show Emily the Vegas Strip at night, something we couldn't do if we were just spending the night....

Hmmmm...would you be interested, Emily? I know I am, but if we BOTH are, I'll definitely save up tight for it.

What do you, the viewer at home think? Add a day in Vegas after all? Or spend more time in San Francisco?

UPDATE: After being told that the Experience is TOTALLY WORTH IT, but is also TOTALLY SHORT, it might be better to just stay one night in Vegas, then go to the experience in the morning, and leave afterwards. Instead of going straight to San Fran, we'll stay over in Fresno where Emily wants to see friends.... This is really beginning to look like a plan!

Your result for The Best Thing About You Test...

Intelligence

Intelligence is your strongest virtue

Intelligence (also called intellect) is an umbrella term used to describe a property of the mind that encompasses many related abilities, such as the capacities to reason, plan, and solve problems. And you? Your brain shines. All 7 virtues are a part of you, but your intelligence runs deepest.


It is likely you're a smarty-pants. And it's likely (but not necessary) that your discipline score is high also. It takes a certain resolve to maintain all those neural thingies.


Intelligent famous people: Einstein, Shakespeare, Da Vinci.


Your raw relative scores follow. 0% is low, and 100% is perfect, nearly impossible. Note that I pitted the virtues against each other, so in some way these are relative scores. It's impossible to score high on all of them, and a low score on one is just relatively low compared to the other virtues.


YOUR VIRTUES


40% Compassion


56% Intelligence


25% Humility


44% Honesty


25% Discipline


14% Courage


17% Passion
