While going through my backlog of unfinished posts, I found this one.

New World’s Hotel/Casino Breaks Ground

Las Vegas, NV Ground was broken today at what some people consider the most ambitious construction project ever undertaken in the 20th century. MGM Mirage (NYSE: MGM) owners of The Mandalay Bay, Circus Circus, Luxor and other theme-based hotel casinos has begun construction on what will be both the largest hotel in the world and the largest inhabited structure ever built. Stretching for a total of 31 miles, the Great Wall of Nevada hotel will recreate a scaled-down version of the Great Wall of China.

My first thought was, “Wow, why didn’t I post this one? This is too good. What will they have for theme entertainment dinners at the buffet? A re-enactment of Mao’s Great Leap Forward?”

I thought it odd that I hadn’t included in my notes the original source for this article, so I went looking. It doesn’t exist. It’s a complete hoax that I wrote and completely forgot to finish. Pity, I think it would have been a good one.
