Bunch of folks here are headed to Tampa for a "play".
Was tempted to join them but don't feel like boarding my dog again so soon.

I heard that at 5:38 pm tonight Phil contacted every casino in the state of Florida and told them there was a system malfunction in every Ultimate X machine in the state and they needed to be immediately removed from the casino.

May just be a rumor though...

The only real VP machine malfunction I have ever witnessed was in AC.   Actually the machines were so dirty and full of cigarette ashes, it could have been an illusion.  My advice is to take a shop vac and be sure your flu shots are up to date.

This is just another example of people having a platform to say whatever they want even though it defies math and normal logic. Bob told him there was “a play” in his own back yard but instead of looking further into it and helping himself he insisted on witch craft and his own ways. The entire time stomping his feet and crying “I’m right”.   Just the normal

Hilarious.  You are right about staying home.  I should have listened.  My wife and I both got severe Bronchitis in AC.   It has taken us a month to recover and we still both have the dry cough.   At first we were afraid it was Legionnaires' disease.   AC is the dirtiest, most broken down place we have ever been to.   It was a huge disappointment in every aspect.   If we had to play there, we would jump off the nearest bridge.  Wait!  Make that the nearest building.  I don't want to go anywhere near that water again.

     Phil...if you and Mrs. make it back to Ct, early fall would be a great time. I think because of their upcoming contest next week, I will be able to maintain my Soar status through at least the end of the year. That means, I could comp you guys at least 2 consecutive nights and take care of a few other little things. They are still trying at Mohegan to get a 5 star rating with Forbes and as such have been fanatical in keeping the place spotless. Even elevator buttons and cleaning the tiny spaces in between machines. Just let me know. PS. Hard Rock looks nice.

Olds,  I appreciate the offer.  You are a very gracious host and we enjoy your company.  The Mohegan Sun is one of the nicest casino resorts in the Country and definitely the best we have seen in the Northeast.  I can see why you enjoy it so much.   I'm just glad I don't live down the street or I would be there every day.We are much better now.   When you are an older couple and both of you get sick at the same time, it's pretty dabilitaing.  I have only been to Atlantic City twice in my life.  The first time was on a convention when I got food poisoning in a restaurant.  My wife found me passed out on the floor in the bathroom.  I was so sick I couldn't stand up for two days.  The second time was last month.  I think God is sending me a message about that place and I'm listening.We're heading back to Colorado this fall.  Of all the resorts in the Country, we enjoy the Colorado area the best.   Black Hawk and Central City are so much fun.  We always take a day trip down to Cripple Creek.  There are 14,000 foot snow capped mountains all along the drive and Cripple Creek is a sight to behold.I keep hearing good things about Soaring Eagle in Michigan.  We may do a road trip there this summer as well.
