Anthony put in a 100 coin 4 of a kind bonus one year. OOPS!!! I think he got mad.
The palms 100 coin 4 of a kind promo was so good even my wife got tossed for it and she doesn't even really gamble. She worked for Anthony Curtis at the time and had access to lots of those coupons.
Surfin' Bird // Bird is the word - Trashmen (or at least the family guy version)
Word up - Cameo
Or maybe it just sounds better in my mind. But I'm sure it could be done, maybe.

Sometimes you can hear it already by playing both videos at the same time. However, as far as I can tell, tempo is too far off to make any fair opinion.

There's no way in hell I'd know that...
Edit: Oh you're talking about the Cameo song. Hmmm....I'll give it a watching and make a guess. I swear I won't google it (and by my answer, you can probably tell I didn't google it).
He looks like the black guy in NCIS.

Yeah. I can hear it in my head when I'd mix the two together...and whenever I hear the Cameo song I think it'd be good..but then when I listen to the bird is the word song I get disappointed it doesn't sound like what I'd like it to sound like. :(
Now they are in the living room with helicopters and cones setting up life flights. To have no perspective about life like a kid must be so nice.

A nerdy sci-fi guy might get it.
Cameo: an appropriate name for that band.

Quote: GWAESo life flight just landed in the field across from our house. We all went out to watch it. My five year old said it was the best day of his life. My 3 year old asked if the person on the stretcher was going to be in a box.

Hmm, maybe they would enjoy "Lego Emergency Room." You can match it up with "Lego Graveyard" and "Lego Hospital"
I don't remember there being a double(100 coin bonus actually) in LVA for the Palms. IIRC they came in their books or something, I can't remember exactly how I got them, I just know I had more than I could get away with.Quote: DRichThe palms 100 coin 4 of a kind promo was so good even my wife got tossed for it and she doesn't even really gamble.

I did have a 125 coin bonus on higher denominations at Palms for 2 days st8.
LVA had a 100 coin bonus coupons at Mahoney's Silver Nugget I belive.

Quote: TigerWuIf I want to take a limo from McCarran airport to a hotel on the strip, what's the best way to go about it? Do I need to make a reservation or can I really just walk up to the "limo stand" at the airport and grab one? Is there a specific limo company I should use/avoid?
We booked a limo last month through VIP limo for $150 ish including tip for a 6 person stretch which included a chauffer meet up with a sign and a bottle of champagne and bottled water. We had 4 adults and 2 kids so it really wasn't that much more than taking a shuttle.
Quote: Wizardofnothing150 is astronomical!!!!! I've never paid more then half of that
Should have mentioned, that was round trip
Quote: WizardofnothingOh!!!! Much better then lol
Haha yes. When I was getting quotes though I did get one for $150 one way. I dint even say bye, I just hung up.
When we got the limo I surprised my family with it. We are coming back in aug and my wife asked the other day if there will be another airport surprise. I sure open a can of worms with that surprise. I told her I have a $10 lyft coupon so our ride will be close to free.
The casinos pay a flat rate.
You tip the driver 20.00.
You make side trips as you desire: liquor store, convienent store, etc.
If you want to contact a limo yourself... Paradise Limo was operated by a "friend of Bill's" and had a good reputation awhile ago. Don't know about now.
IF you rent a limo or get a taxi, ask for the driver's cell phone in case you need him again. Some Friday or Saturday night call to the Limo company can be a long response time. A call to the driver can sometimes help.
Hotel Concierge can put you in either taxi or limo, but taxi is MAX five passengers, limos can take more.
I don't recommend trips to Strip Clubs but NEVER pay for a limo if going to a Gentlemen's Club, the Club always pays the Limo driver so as to keep limo drivers happy and willing to suggest a particular club to an inquiring passenger.

Nope.

You should call Roger Snow. He's crazy for Pink Floyd. Might even know where/how to get great tickets.
You know he's a Brit right. Those outfits for the shock value were worth it. They're so outrageous, even the guy in the pink doesn't look like he likes them, but the yellow just loves them.Quote: djatcQuote: onenickelmiracleRick Astley dead at 58.🙏

Quote: lilredroostermy top 5 fast food picks:
#1 Subway's footlong meatball marinara. only $5.75. i get it toasted with provolone cheese and add onions, green peppers, oregano and black pepper. the only protein from Subway that i like. although they do have fresh veggies to load up on on their other picks.
#2 "Pollo" chicken. joints near me with the word "Pollo" in the name are peruvian charbroiled chicken joints. the chicken is heavily spiced but mild and very tasty. their sides of steak fries and slaw compliment very nicely.
#3 McDonalds hotcakes. just $3.49. the only thing from micky dees that i like. i can't make them that good.
#4 Chipotle tacos. just $2.60 for one chicken taco. their chicken is tasty as is their barbacoa. i load them up with almost everything else. a deal. i think 2 of them weigh more than a pound.
#5 Popeye's chicken. just the chicken and biscuits from Popeye's. don't like anything else there. their chicken is very greasy but it has taste. KFC doesn't imo.
in listing my picks i left one out. Wegman's hot food bar if you happen to have a Wegman's near you. as far as hot food bars go nobody that i've seen can touch them imo. over 30 different entrees not including salad and their chefs make an effort (unlike many) to insure that each dish is not bland. prepared with care.
Two scenes fit it very well, home being invaded by nihilists while taking a bath, and he says it's a private residence, and the last scene at bowling alley where he doesn't notice the mustachioed man sitting right there. He appears as if from vapors, plus what bar has sarsaparilla in stock.Quote: onenickelmiracleI watched The Big Lebowski last night. Love the movie, but came up with a theory, the entire movie is just a dream, of the dude's presumably.
That's how its supposed to be done.

One of the best "trips" I took was at a Pink Floyd concert.
Roger Waters is good, but I wish the band could get back together; oh well.
My suggestion: "drop" about a half hour before he comes onstage; that way you should peak at the right time.
Raoul Duke (enroute from LA to Las Vegas): "What? No. We can't stop here. This is bat country."

I wish someone would have told me that they can take up to 2 hours to kick you in the ass before I ate more, thinking they were duds.

True. We split one bar eight ways for Dead and Company, and I think I got the short end of the last part of the bar. Next time, its a 16 way split.
Quote: FleaStiffShe didn't get tired of being a mother. She got tired of being a poverty stricken mother and she met a local rich lothario who told her that he wanted her but not her baggage. So she got rid of the baggage as the only hope out of her constant strife and poverty.
The real criminal in this case was the local rich playboy who offered her hope.
So the real criminal was the boyfriend? Who almost certainly had no idea that Miss Smith was literally the worst mother in the world and would murder her own kids? Really?
Look if a guy doesn't want to deal with his girlfriend's kids, then being honest and telling her that is probably the best thing he can do. The major wrong thing that this guy did is to violate the #1 cardinal rule of being a guy: Don't stick your #$%* into crazy.
You know you're going to be over ruled, but good idea in theory. Crazy women are the best until you can't take it anymore.Quote: gordonm888This was posted just two weeks ago. A seriously wrong-headed post about Susan Smith, who put her kids into a car and backed it up into a lake.

How did I miss that Duke's first name is Raoul?? 40 years Fandom down the tubes.
Most of my posts are seriously wrong-headed. Big thing in Oregon now about inducing someone to comit suicide. In South Carolina I think it was more about inducing dreams of escape from relentless poverty by discarding her baggage and bagging the richest lothario in the county. Perhaps she just got tired or the hopelessness.Quote: gordonm888A seriously wrong-headed post . . .

I think it has more to do with the cat's massive talons and they swipe at anything that passes.
