Lives in Las Vegas. Does not like it. For how hot it gets in the summer, it's an awful cold place. Especially if you dont gamble. refuses to work for casinos. finds their ethicsquestionable. So one day he wrote a story about how he felt about living in Vegas and called it “semi-autobiographical”. This washis smartass way of saying it is mostly fiction.
Ironically he loves the desert. Or maybe thats just unfortunate.
