    No, but if you're at Caesar's and you're in Room 954 and you find a pair of boxers under the bed......

    115 degrees there every day. My nephews were there last week. They were in the world series of poker. They couldnt leave the hotel because of the heat!

    Yeah I dread the heat. I'm only going for 2 days. It's number 15 for the Wife and I. A friend of mine has a very close friend that is a pro poker player. The guy is great at poker. His name is Mathew Hilger. Look for him to make the final table here in a few years. I think this year he placed in the top 230. 2 years ago he made the top 65.

    Jif, I better get a vacation every once in a while or I will go nuts. Hopefully a good manager will allow for that. I already have a top notch guy lined up.

    Diane, our plans are to arrive in Vegas on the 30th of December and leave for home on the morning of the 3rd of January. As usual, we will be in the RV staying at Circus Circus RV park.

    Just got home. Trip was fun, Craps play was bad over all. If you want a good steak, eat at MGM Grand Craft Steak. 44 buck Rib Eye is very good. Their potatoes are great as is the fried zucchini. Craft Steak gets a 5 star rank from me. We played at Planet Hollywood Friday evening. Pamela Anderson hangs out at the casino bar there with her magician boy friend. Talk about a aging looking woman, She's looking old. The wife and I were at Mix Bar catching the sunset when a extremely nice copter flew right by us, the writing said Trump, so I believe it must've been "The Donald" visiting Mandalay Bay for the fight. Good time, money thrown to the wind.
