The Progressive got hit
Sigh
Back to 1500
I've totally lost interest in playing VP
For a while there I was grinding pretty hard
Playing so much, got pics of 18 4 of a kinds and actually had more over the last 2 days. I'm burned out on VP
I don't know how AP VP players do it

Even when I was playing a lot I got really bored and had a hard time playing more than 4 hours at a time. I also had a stop loss at $10k for the day.

Not a big blues fan but the wife and I went to Chicago a couple years ago and she planned it all, including tickets to Buddy Guy's blues club. It was great. Buddy was there and I chatted briefly with him, and Buddy performed.

Considering the size of the casino it is probably the busiest in Henderson and Vegas. 1cent games brings in the locals and like you said an excellent cheap restaurant.

Just saw this
I walked out of the theater stunned
10 out of 10
I was totally entertained throughout the movie
Great action scenes
The brutality is what stunned me
So well done, its kind of haunting
Saw it in Imax at Sunset Station

Metro makes good pizza but to me their Nuclear Fries are awesome. If you ask they will give you a little side of the Nuclear seasoning and it is incredible sprinkled on your pizza. Although it is called Nuclear, it is not necessarily hot. Just a good flavor.

21 year old dog should be in the record books
If a dog made it to 21, probably about to croak
So old, maybe interactions with other active dogs not a good idea
On the flipside
If your dog likes beer
You might need to be at least 21 to share that beer with your dog

Dead and Co at the Sphere in 10 days. I saw Jerry Garcia with the Grateful Dead about a 100 times all over the country. After Jerry passed away, kind of disappointed in Bobby's bands and all the guitarists he's played with. Kind of a letdown. Was excited to see the 2015 reunion shows at Soldier Field which blew me away. I heard Bobby, Billy and Mickey formed Dead and Co that Fall with John Mayer on lead guitar. I was very skeptical. Never heard of John Mayer. I listened to the tapes of the shows and was pleasantly surprised. Flew out to LA to catch the New Years shows at the Forum. I was blown away. Saw them a bunch of times since at various venues around the country such as Chase Center, Orlando arena, shed outside Indy and Cincy and a couple more shows at the Forum. John Mayer blows me away. He gets it unlike other guitarists Bobby performed with. My game plan is to see all 24 Dead and Co shows at the Sphere. Yup, I'm going to every show. It's not U2 doing the same show every night. It's the Dead doing a unique show every night as has been the custom for over 60 years
Pic I took 12/31/15 Dead and Co at the Forum. My 2nd Dead and Co show. My 1st show was the night before

The Sphere is an incredible venue. I saw 3 shows there over the weekend. The acoustics are incredible. The best large indoor venue sound I have ever heard in my life. The video graphics are incredible. Just adds a whole new level of entertainment to a concert. Overall Dead and Co seem to be doing the same video graphic theme each night with some additions and subtractions each night. The overall theme is to start and end the show with 710 Ashbury, their old house they rented out.
Here is the beginning of "lift off" as the Sphere splits revealing the old house. They use the slow zoom out from Space giving the optical illusion that the Sphere is lifting off and flying
The 1st night, the whole band turned around to watch this

What a show. The visuals were stunning. The acoustics of this place are spectacular. I could hear every instrument and every note. The band seemed so energized. Really incredible show. During drums/space, you could feel drums through the Rumble seats. Nobody in seats were standing for drums as you had to be seated to feel the drums. So thrilled to get Help>Slip>Frank 1st show. My favorite set of songs. So well done with some very creative improvisation jams.

Really impressed with the Sphere employees. They were all friendly and very welcoming. It's really a pleasure to be treated as a customer for a change at a huge concert. General admission on the floor had waitress service. Security very smooth going in. You keep everything in your pockets and walk through a metal detector only looking for weapons sized metal. They only searched bags. There is staff all over the place to help or answer any questions.
