Web Watch was in Las Vegas recently, where we had the pleasure of dining at GORDON RAMSAY STEAK at the Paris Las Vegas casino.

Needless to say, famed celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay wasn’t there that night, but we’ll just offer a quick review of the place: in one word, “fantastic”.

Of course, it didn’t help that having Chef Ramsay’s name on the marquee led to a constant parade of tacky tourists with their camera phones, t-shirts, and flip-flops barging into the main dining area to take a photo or two of a place that they’re not spending a nickle in. It was a bit disruptive to those of us with our own camera phones who were diving in to our own 2-hour dining spectactular.

But regardless of the lack of control the hosting staff had in preventing the riff-raff from interfering with our fine dining, Web Watch highly recommends Gordon Ramsay Steak for your next Las Vegas dining experience.

What? You’re not planning on heading out to Vegas anytime soon? Well – let Web Watch bring you a little bit of Gordon Ramsay to your kitchen…

10 Things How To Travel

The secret rule of riding the bus? Nobody wants to sit next to the “Crazy Person”

Post author By web gangsta
Post date August 2, 2012

Let’s face it – we’ve all played that game of chance when riding our favorite form of public transportation, whether it be a streetcar in San Francisco, a plane flying out of JFK, or a public bus or subway:

“Is that person coming down the aisle going to sit in the empty seat next to me?”

And there are some people who are coming through that you say, “why yes – I’d love for that hottie to sit next to me for the next 4 hours” (Web Watch knows of at least one blooming relationship that was born from such a random airplane encounter).

And then there are others who you hope and pray won’t choose you to be their personal Travel Buddy and Hygiene Police.

Advice for the Incoming College Freshman

Post author By web gangsta
Post date July 30, 2012

Surprise: college is NOT like the movie Animal House.

Well, not entirely, anyway.

But there are some things that remain true for every college experience – looking back, it will always be remembered as having been much more fun than it actually was.

And that’s because it’s the fun times that are always remembered the most. You won’t recall the drudgery of studying in the library all night long for some midterm exam. But you will remember that drunken evening trading stories with some hottie while sitting on the roof of a random fraternity house… without any knowledge of how you actually ended up in that situation.

As a parent, you’re obligated to remind your offspring all the practical things to keep in mind about as your prized possession heads off to college and out of the house for the first time.

But maybe, if Web Watch can offer the advice that you wouldn’t ever hear from the parental units, you may have a much better College Experience overall.

After all, has Web Watch ever steered you wrong in the past? (If we have, don’t answer that — just let us believe…!)

How To Internet

When it comes to your privacy, Facebook stinks

Post author By web gangsta

By now, you’ve probably gotten used to all the privacy warnings about Facebook, Google, LinkedIn, and other social media and online sites.

You’ve certainly heard all the news, even if you haven’t taken the time to actually do anything about it in your own life.

And maybe that’s okay. Maybe it all depends on your personal philosophy about what people can do with your personal information. They say that kids today don’t care as much about keeping things to themselves as their parents did at that same age.

Of course, all that openess could come back to bite those youngsters when they go out to find their first job — but that’s at least 10 years from now, right?

Everything your date knows about you, he learned from your dog

They say that the best way to meet someone is to take your dog for a walk at the park.

Or borrow a friend’s dog, and take the dog for a walk at the park.

Or hang out at the Humane Society, taking the puppies out for a walk at the park.

(See the trend here, folks?)

The secret – obviously – is to get a dog, and let that be your way to introduce yourself to the ladies or the guys. Who can resist puppies?

How to take over Cinderella Castle at Walt Disney World

You’ve been there.

The yelling, the screaming kids. The crowds. The pushing and shoving.

Going to Walt Disney World can seem, to some, to be a form of modern-day warfare, with every tourist working hard to achieve the ultimate prize of a Relaxing Family Vacation (five days of fun crammed into three)!

You’ve felt like you were going to snap, didn’t you?
