Take a Bite out this!

Friday, 6:00pm

It’s all coming together.

Weather is great - mid to high 80's. Same as tomorrow. Great for Yard Sales!

Rented the car from Alamo (pains to deal with, but better prices). $130 through Monday. Glad to have it. A Dodge Avenger

I ate at the buffet again. For $13.00 dollars it was worth it. Unless I wanted to go fast food, it was going to cost me that much. Things are picking up as the weekend hits. I think I’m going to have problems finding $5.00 tables. I did play some after breakfast. I sat down with $50, got up with $80.

I stopped at the ticket place and got a ticket for the show Bite. It’s at 10:30pm and was $30.00. The Stratosphere seems like a cool place. They got an observation deck & roller coaster that may be better than the one at NY, NY. So, I’ll check those out before the show. I’m not sure, but the guy at the ticket place may have scammed me $20. I gave $100 plus some change. He then gave me the change and rushed though their ticket policies & promotions. When I next checked my wallet, there was $50 next to some ones. No $20 bill was next to it. No way to prove it.

I went into my wallet, because I was at Luxor and decide to play some BLACKJACK!
Very good time. It was at a $10 table. One guy was betting $25 and if it was only the two of us, he would play two spots. I plunked my $50 down, and walked away with…wait for it…$180.00. Nice hour indeed.

So with my $20 bet on tonight’s Red Sox, I’m up $160. Not to bad. Let see how I do tonight.

Red Sox - Yankees

Hi, I'm back!

Hope all my fellow Americans have good Fourth of July. And to all my Canadian friends, a belated Happy Canada Day!

I am heading down to New York to see the Red Sox and Yankees play on Saturday. Hopefully, the Red Sox will get off the shnide and win. Last year the Yankees won the game we saw, but I think the Red sox had the last laugh! I'm not one of those obnoxious Red Sox fans, I enjoy the rivalry. My buddy, Mike C, is a little paranoid. He doesn't want us to wear any Red Sox gear to the game. Last year there was some good natured back and forth, but nothing out hand. He is worried that it may get out of hand. To be honest, that Yankee fan from New Hampshire was drunk. Maybe because because he was form New England, he was more belligerent. I will admit, New England fans tend to be a bit more nasty than most. I saw that when I went to Tampa Bay to see some Red Sox games. Maybe it is because of all those years of falling just short gave us a bit of a chip on our shoulder. Well, that is all. I'll let you know how the game went!

Peace Out.
