And JR, we have a few new, active listners. So when was the last time you updated the map? You will have to put that on your long list of things to do.

Good luck, MO. I hope you win big.

Actually, it's more like the mafia owned trash company. Silver State is the only trash company allowed to haul in Las Vegas and if they see another trash truck coming through (Such as the BFI guys that stopped on their way through), they will gladly escort you to the city limits (which they did). At least that's how it was a few years ago when I worked in the waste hauling biz.

MO, I love Vegas.  I stay at MGM.  If you have a chance see either O or KA.  Great shows--if and only if you are into musical interpretation.  The stories are told thru dance and music so many people don't like them.


Wish I could join you but I was there last weekend. Lost a lot.  My wife is still trying to figure out how much.


Good Luck.

I'm jealous, I have yet to get out there. My brother and his wife went around his birthday so she rented him a Plymouth Prowler for the day - he said it was incredible and although it was a rental, the valets etc treat you like royalty.

Have fun! I'll get out there someday! Someday....

There you go Mo!!! thats one reason I've shunned Vegas!! I would only go to do the things that did not involve gambling!! There are great shows there, plus I hear like top notch breakfasts of steak and eggs for $3 if you know where to go! Please go have fun, and then write us a thread about your vegas experience to share with the forum folks!! What you liked, where you liked, what you would do again, what you woulld avoid if you went again etc!!! Penn and Teller!!! have a great time!!!

OK, Dusting this one off, cuz I never finished off the trip... well, After going to go see Penn & Teller (which was pretty cool) I ran to the Bathroom, My Dad (who was the one who had the rooms & many of the meals comped) sat at one of the slot machines....4 $1 pulls later he was $1200 richer....& he originally didn't want to go to the show that night....he got so hot that night, he ended up UP$2200 on slots & blackjack....

Next day I took it easy after licking my wallets wounds & spent the morning by the pool....Now I'd been going to the tanning booths almost daily to get a good base coat on my pasty white skin that prefers indoor air conditioning to outdoor mosquitos....well that had been a waste of time....I TOTALLY burned my shoulders, upper legs, & tops of of feet (Nearly second degree Bay-Bee!!!) OK So 4 hours in the vegas noonday sun was...um ...NOT smart, even with a tan.....

After the show, we went to the Monte Carlo....this is where I made most of my money back... I did awesome (for me....) at the blackjack Tables.... on my $100 dollars a day budget for gambling....I was down about 230....well I put $60 down on a $5 table...& played with this awesome dealer...really cool guy, & not counting the $60 I put down to start, I walked away with $180 dollars (& about 6 Red Bull & Vodkas in me). I had been up to about $210, but I'd been playing in $60 increments. Once I went above $60 I put it aside & didn't play with it anymore, One I lost down to an increment of $60 That was time to leave the table. So once I broke $180, I wasn't going to leave with less than that, Had I broken $240 I'd not have left with less than that, but I lost that last $30 right in a row...& that was a night
