I may or may not be in Vegas now. I might be in AC, Tunica, Reno, Oklahoma or somewhere else. I'm certainly not in the Detroit area. 8-)


You may or may not be.
I think, therefore I am.
You, on the other hand, may just be an illusion.......

That was then, this is now.

Looks like the dealer standing up is about to deck the one sitting down while Greg Raymer is chuckling.

Doesn't count.

If I looked at it right, you ended up four-to-a-Royal on four other hands, all Jacks.

I guess that's one nice thing that slows play time on those machines: Anytime I hold two-three to a Royal I always like to look and see how many hands I ended up with four of them. That probably takes a minute or two, so at least I am being entertained without actively playing for a couple minutes.

Looking at end of January as well! I find October and April weather really nice in Vegas. Usually hot enough for outdoor swimming and not too hot to walk wherever I want. January weather is just a nice break from Buffalo January weather.....

If you're going to be that way about it, pencil me in for June 28-July 1, although that's subject to my finding some spare money after both my AC ($6500, since I had to replace it with a Freon-free unit that required replacing the interior part of the unit as well, and the guy gave me a deal on a new furnace because of it) and my computer (another $1600 or so) decided to go on the fritz.

Yes, I am one of those people that plans his vacations months in advance. When you attend events with fixed dates, it's not as hard as it sounds.

March 19 is a Saturday - assuming that is what you meant, this is during the first weekend of March Madness.

Yes, I'll be there that Saturday through Wednesday. I locked in some discounted rates at the Monte Carlo, hoping to rebook whenever the spring MLife offers come out, but I'm assuming there will be some blackout dates.

If you do bet on the tournament, note that the Rounds of 64 and 32 are going to be called the First and Second Rounds again, after a few years of being called the Second and Third Rounds when the NCAA got tired of some people (e.g. Jim Rome) referring to the Dayton games as "play-in games" and treating the losers of those games as "not really being in the tournament." (Technically, it's a 7-round tournament with 60 byes in the first round.)

Staying at Cosmo. If you are in the area and want to have an afternoon beer or 2, my wife and I are there. Sin City by Harmon or Yard house in the Linq are always good choices, but open to anything in the area.

Yard house

Great food and selection at a fair price. Unfortunately I'm starting to get tired of it just a tad, I have been to one countless times in the last few months. There's also one further out on the strip in town square. Don't forget they have a happy hour on food and it's significantly less.

I just used my last $200 from them - Koi, at Planet Hollywood. Very good. For some reason I thought I had $300 but I guess not. Still went $80 over :(

Edit: Wizard's family not interested in $100 meal?

No need to apologize. The pleasure I get from ignoring you far outweighs any sense of guilt you may feel.
