Another time he took them to some industrial part of Las Vegas and told them about the 'quickie divorce villas of the rich and famous' and the spas and dude ranches that used to be there. Went around Hollywood showing where certain famous silent era movies were made, like, right out on the street. etc.
Not the most high falutin' of fare, but interesting historical tidbits you don't get everywhere.

I'm all for that...
