BTW; for anyone who gambles, Know this..
You ONLY win for the short term, you ALWAYS LOSE in the long term
That's how the casino's keep you coming back, chasing that next win and in the end they get it all back PLUS PLUS PLUS!

I gamble for amusement not financial gain, I *PLAN* on losing the money, If I win (or even break even) I am ahead.
I take my winnings, and stick it in a draw, and then gamble my winnings. Or I will take the winnings and buy gifts or toys
with the money, IT IS NOT REAL MONEY.. -- Real money pays bills, and gas and food.

When you start to use your bill, gas and food money to gamble THEN you are in trouble -- RUN (don't walk) to the exit.
I have seen too many people come to Las Vegas in a $23,000 car and leave on a $600,000 Greyhound bus.

On "THIS" win, I did the wheel and saw it was heading to $40, I already was hitting the MAX BET button, when people around me started applauding I thought "Why the hell are they applauding a $40 win" Then I looked up.

Finally, it looks like Manhattan West in Spring Valley will be resuming construction soon. Development will now be called, the Gramercy! Looking forward to this development, at least the retail and dining part of the development.

Von, where is that, where COPS is filming? Maybe we can make it into an episode by driving by while they are filming. I like watching that show. Some real "winners" in that one.

That was on the corner of LV blvd and Pecos. Over the last month or so, I have seen a camera guy and sound guy tag along with an metro officer. Either in the patrol car or out during a arrest. Very common around Nellis AFB and near the trailer parks on Nellis blvd.

Ok...I think I will skip the drive by. We never get over to that area ever. It will be interesting to see it on a future episode of COPS though.
