That’s good Bill. I’m sure one of those has your name on it somewhere!
Yes and hopefully again. :)

Yes, a $20,000.00 payout. Didn't say if the player started with $50,000.00 and lost $30,000.00 though.

Or started with $500, losing 60% of their modest seeding before their favorite song began blasting throughout the room. Maul Attendant!

August 29 is Jimmy Buffet Day. If it was the 30th, I’d have celebrated with a limited edition collectors cup at Margaritaville. I’ll stop in the next day and try to buy a remainder cup.

Discarded shirt in bathroom stall. There was also an incident in which a man was reported after being caught in the women’s room. I walked into the men’s room -and there was a woman. After they extracted the man, he yelled that his girlfriend was in the other bathroom. Apparently they got mixed up. Security dealt with both. This place is a far cry from Sinatra’s headlining days.

I returned to Resorts a conqueror after my Marina moolah session, highlighted by a max quad Aces. Out of curiosity, I stopped in at the HL room and checked the machine I played before exiting for lunch and Harrah’s. This was the last played hand of BP. Identical to my Harrah’s Aces hand, down to the spare King. Resorts really should have bestowed this upon me this morning and saved me the seventy five cents I burned on a jitney trip. But they rewarded the guy across from me. He probably nailed this too. What are you going to do?

They awarded $500 FP prizes every ten minutes for three hours this afternoon. Every hand pay winner got an entry. The big winner, who heard his mellifluous name six times, wore a hooded sweatshirt, white tee shirt and well worn jeans. The casino workers were catching heat from onlookers, convinced that it was rigged. Mr. Lucky, for his part, claims to have suffered sessions of losing $30,000 in an hour. And so it goes in Lost Wages East.

Big events here. They’re still madly raising money toward the month’s breast cancer cause. A couple of all in high rollers were married at a nearby church and have their reception here. Nothing like a wedding party photo shoot in the middle of a casino floor.

Different strokes for different folks. Some people like pepperoni on pizza, some like sausage. Some like cheese only. Some people don't like pizza.

Who are you to judge?

My mom was a breast cancer survivor in the early 1970s. We have many family and friends that are as well. Always a good cause to support. I noticed Landshark was supporting as well. Had I been down there I would have had lunch there. You wouldn’t have had to settle for McD either. Don’t forget the survey on your receipt. BOGO any sandwich. The offerings at both McD and Wendy’s have been paltry lately without the survey receipts. Wendy’s is trying to reinvent itself. Stock went from 20 to 9 in a year. I hope they don’t use the Cracker Barrel Model for success. You know how that went.
