Just a poll to see who plans on a casino trip on any day from July 4-7. I suspect a mob scene from coast to coast. Especially in a certain famous summer resort town on the East Coast. Talk about pack your patience.

Good luck Case on your Vegas trip. If it's any consolation, it is hotter here in metro Phoenix. This June was the hottest on record and the forecast is more of the same. As for the fourth, I will be in a casino as my friend wants to win a car.

I will be at the (in)famous summer resort all four days. Four day trips spell almost certain doom, can I possibly show discipline to only play 3 of the 4 days?

If I drink at the bar all day I can spend a few hundred and basically skip that day and the next day sleeping it off. Then spend another day at the beach and avoid the horrendous pay tables at Trop, leaving only one day of 5 Star punishment.

Plan B- just play craps.

Otabill every summer it gets hotter across the country. I have seen temps in Phoenix , Lake Havasu ect and really wonder how you guys live in that heat. Vegas had the hottest June on record and last year they had the hottest July on record. Make you wonder what it will be like in the future. Climate change is real.

It was 106 earlier today at my sister’s house in Sonoma. They are also under an extreme fire risk watch.

One thing that disturbs me regarding the climate change issue is that our planet has existed for some 4.5 billion years, but our temperature records cover only the most recent two or three hundred years. Do we really know that these "record temperatures" are, in fact, the highest ever?
