I stayed in the old tower. I didnt ask for the new one, I want to wait till they get the "bugs" out. Checkin was a lot more difficult than usual-I suspect they wanted to make sure the newly opened new tower would be cleaned first because I couldnt get a room till 4ish even tho I checked in at 10AM!

Tks Boops, We just want to find your lucky machines if we make it to Taj. Harrah's Resorts is holding us captive again with flight, room, $40 free play and X play our first day. I know where their lucky DW multi line machines are located. Listen, can you hear Borgata calling my name now for DDB? Oh yes!

FYI: THE TOP FLOORS ARE NOT FINISHED YET SO THERE MAYBE SOME CONSTRUCTION NOISE IN THE NEW TOWER. THEN ON FRIDAY`S AND SATURDAY NIGHTS THE CASBAH NIGHT CLUB IS OPEN UNTIL 6 AM. DON`T BE SURPRISE IF YOU HERE THE MUSIC ALL NIGHT. ON FRIDAY ( 9/5 ) THEY HAD A PRELIMINARY (SOFT ) OPENNING. I THINK THAT DURING THE WEEK OF 9/15 THRU 9/19, ONE OF THOSE DAYS WILL BE THE GRAND OPENNING WITH DONALD TRUMP AND GOVERNOR CORZINE AND A BUNCH OF OTHER PEOPLE TO CUT THE RIBBON TO THE TOWER.

MARIE: I LEFT THE BIG JACKPOTS IN HARRAH`S AND THE BORGATA. I DID GET SOME GOOD PLAY TIME AND CAME HOME $100 AHEAD. PLAYING BONUS DEUCES WILD I DID GET THE DEUCES SEVERAL TIMES AND A LOT OF WILD ROYALS WHICH KEPT ME PLAYING. ON SUPER BONUS DEUCES WILD I GOT THE DEUCES AND 5ofK WITH 1 WILD FOR 800 COINS WHICH HELPS IN KEEPING YOU PLAYING.

GOOD-LUCK

Hey JIM, Tks for the feedback. Returning home AHEAD always beats breaking even or losing!Perhaps I better rethink starting out with dollar play. That worked great for my last trip there and I brought $$ home.Lucky wins at MGM Grand Detroit and Greektown this week provided my bankroll for this trip.Last time in AC, I hopped on a packed $2 jitney with over $3K wins stashed here and there, trying to look destitute and sad. A HUGE dude sat down next to me. I asked about a jitney stop and could barely hear him say he was not from around there. He was very soft spoken with a heavy regional accent and the traffic noise, jitney rattling and blaring radio drowned out whatever else he was saying. Trust me, we made an odd-looking couple. However, he kept staring and staring at me. Ignore him, it doesn't matter, I will be getting off soon. Sure, it's rude but doesn't hurt anything. Staring is not the worst that could happen. Our eyeballs were about 3" apart. He spoke and it sounded like he said "Yougotsabugonyerhed". Whatever he said, it sounded like a weird thing to say. Is this some new slang expression I am not up on? again "Yougotsabugonyerhed", still STARING. It sounded like he said "Yougotsabugonyerhed". Maybe, it's because there's a bug on my head? My left hand finally, instinctively reached up and brushed off a huge black bug that felt like hummingbird size, but it hit the floor so fast I did not see it. I started to crack up as did everyone else on the jitney. It was TOO funny! "What was it doing there, I asked" "Just a sittin' thar, not doin' nothin'" he replied. He had been trying to be polite and did not know how to tell me about that bug or if he should even mention it, I surmised. I thanked him profusely and said I once slapped a mosquito on someone without warning and would not do that again. (I know you do not care, but on my behalf, I do shampoo every day to get rid of chemicals from the community pool. Why me, G? It seems like I cannot leave home without getting into some kind of trouble or strange adventure!)

SOMETIMES BREAK`IN EVAN IS A WIN. 
A LOT OF PERFUMES WILL ATTRACK BUGS AND MOSQUITO`S. THOSE JITTNEY BUSSES DO SOUND LIKE THEY ARE READY TO FALL APART.
SCORPIO2: SOMETIMES I WOULD SMOKE A GOOD SMELLY CIGAR WHEN FISHING.
