Curtain calling

Like starry skies and classic musicals? You still have three months to escape Las Vegas for a night outside with Super Summer Theatre. Start packing that picnic basket. — Sarah Feldberg, editor

Heat wave

This week I learned a valuable lesson: Befriend your neighbors. They might let you hang out in their apartment when it’s 100+ degrees out and you’re stuck waiting for the A.C. repairman. — April Corbin, web content editor

Chop stop

Las Vegas is no longer No. 1 in car thefts! Yay, we’re No. 17! But don’t get cocky yet—July and August are car thieves’ two busiest months. — Rick Lax, staff writer

Scary stuff

Between misunderstanding the Founding Fathers’ stances on slavery and her accidental praise of John Wayne Gacy, Minnesota Congresswoman Michele Bachmann has further confirmed that her mindlessness is for real. — Kristen Peterson, staff writer

Past + present

Kudos to record labels bundling digital downloads with their vinyl releases. Folks who still dig turntables are allowed to crave iPod convenience, too. And if you were gonna buy the mp3s anyway, hey, free wall hanging! — Spencer Patterson, managing editor
