Yep! Been there. Done that. Very hard to walk. Especially if one hits early in the session. There is a reason there are no clocks in a casino. I still wear a wristwatch. Leave it right on the machine while playing. I wonder if I wore a shirt with an electronic built in clock on the back if they would throw me out.

That is some expensive Amstel. Out and about? I saw four films over the weekend, two per day. Plus I slipped into the last 45 minutes of The Many Saints of Newark. Total cost was “on the arm.” I miss the gambling and my AC Weekly read. But not the commute. The weekly trips aren’t worth the trouble anymore. It’s tough to win over a nominal $50. Isn’t it better to paint the town red when I do go? And I can read the ACW in its hard copy format just by going online. Quit after a RF, as I preach. It’s just the sensible thing to do.
I won't comment on sneaking into the movie.

Quit after a RF, as you preach? I'm glad that I'm not a member of your flock.

Funny A p. I get some very cool watches on Ebay from anywhere from 5 bucks to 15 bucks and always get free shopping. I have a couple of good ones I never wear to the casino. In fact, just pulled into the Mohegan garage now with the Mrs. Here’s one I’m wearing tonite. Ebay.

My friend a wounded Marine Vet has the same dragon on his arm. I think its copied from something very old. I think this one was 13 bucks brand new. I also like old keywind pocket watches from the 1860s and English keywind watches from the late 1700s with chain drive. They are called Fusee watches. The chains look like very tiny bicycle chains and almost always are in silver cases.

I asked a host I had if he could lend me a charger for my phone , I forgot to bring mine, he said he no longer brings his charger since chargers also grow legs !

Pretty much everything grows legs nowadays. Mohegan sun has a pretty good system for charging wires. The ones left in the rooms that go unclaimed they bring down to the concierge’s desk and if you need to borrow one they are very good about lending it they just ask that you bring it back. I have about four of them now that I bought over the years because I keep forgetting mine as well. Now I keep one in the car, one in my jacket, one in the suitcase, and one home.

Other than the Chicago Cubs and FAA: I don't know of anyone else who is ready to resume losing.
