Vegas Baby

..... (although I take it now and then)... :lol:



I think we all have to at one time or another in our lives......My Dad taught me long ago--make sure you have a lot of bread!!!!!:laugh::chuckle:lol::laugh:

Can't believe I didn't catch it on your post--I'm usually telling Supa about her mis-spelling all the time.
 
I agree but their job is not to be putting their hands inside my pants as they clearly have been taught they are not to put a finger on us. I am sure everyone on this forum that has met me will agree that I do not look like a terrorist. With all the new modern technology they should be able to figure out a way to inbed something on our passports so those of us that are good American citizens don't have to be subjected to such treatment.
You know Robert, that I do agree with you - and if someone stepped out of line doing their job I am sorry for that.
But Ray just finished a class on terrorism that the dept requires he keeps up to date on. One thing that I can guarantee you is that no one "looks like a terrorist" ..... The Oklahoma bombing proves that. I was interested to hear some of the information that we aren't privy to because the media is so much more interested in stories like yours because they can't obtain the details on the very serious situations, objects and people who have been prevented from boarding a plane. And how active the terrorists are .... waiting, watching, taking pictures .... plotting.....

Not on a soapbox exactly, just mho.

Oh ... I thought it was misspelling. :blinzel:
 
Supa & I will stay at an MGM property; as that is where our comps are at. I prefer the Monte Carlo, but can stay anywhere--provided you all let me get my 'hours' in at the tables!!!:lol::lol:

(Plus side of Monte Carlo--there's a Fatburger right across the street!!!!)
Cubby, what kind of cards blackjack?;)

speedway:wave:
 
I checked our schedule and I'm sad to say we cant make it. We had so much fun on the last two events we would love to go but we are going to Florida in 2 weeks and again for Christmas and new year and I've used all my vacation time. Sounds like it will be a blast. I would love to meet the wast coast people. There,s always next year.

That's to bad. I'm sure there will be plenty of other opportunities.
 
Gosh very little excitment over this trip. Whats Up! Do we want to plan any specific activities? Does anyone have any shows they want to see? Lets get something going here maybe others will find it hard to pass up.;)

There's excitement a brewin'! Just still early. The holidays have "sort" of already started ..... FOOTBALL season has begun, our Midwesterner's are still outside and not trapped in the house yet, people are still on the waning side of their summer vacations ....
As I see it, Las Vegas is going to be very informal and unplanned, mostly just people making their own plans maybe from here or there in person. A good thing to do is maybe wear our R1, 2, 3 or 4 tag around our necks each day so that when we see someone with them on we will recognize them ..... oh, and really, we have to meet up at least once (probably around the Black Jack table where Cubby will be holding the chair down) in our MM shirts! :lol: Nahhhhh, just kidding, Cubster, we won't bug you .... but we might insist that we go to eat at least one dinner together!

If someone (like you) would like to plan a certain something feel free to post and see how many takers you get.

This meeting up will be nothing like one of the drives that we do where there is many activities planned to do .... this was something that has been talked about for a long time - just trying to get a date that was semi-convenient for many people. But we wanted to see each other and socialize .... you know like friends do on the weekends!:rocker:

Since we are flyng in, we will be either staggering by foot or taxi .... *hic*.....

December is normally so gorgeous over in Las Vegas, it is an ideal break for the other 3/4 of the States where winter will have already set in.
 
One thing I would like to do with the group (when I commit... I still haven't pulled the trigger yet) would be to have dinner at the restaurant at the Plaza Hotel that faces Fremont Street. It's very classic old-style Vegas. It was also featured in the movie "Casino". The food is good, and the prices are even reasonable. This could be done on an evening that we all spend in "old" Vegas.

If anyone wants to see a show, just chime in! It's generally cheaper than gambling!

Hey .... we'll do dinner! I know exactly where you're talking about .... remember the ol' Prime Rib Special??? :blinzel:
 
I'm up for a dinner somewhere--and possibly a show one night. Other than that I'm there to gamble!!!!!:lol::lol: Still working on my first million--either winning it or losing it. :laugh::laugh::laugh:

For anyone interested; Ron White will be at The Mirage on Dec. 4 & 5 with 10PM shows only. Tickets are 59/69/79 depending on where you want to sit. He is one of my favorites--I would commit to that show.

Doesn't matter to Supa or I where we eat, although I'm partial to steak, seafood and/or pasta!!!

Sounds like fun they also have some really nice light shows there in the evening. We are driving because they said the construction was completed and I enjoy the XLR on the highway. Will park it and leave it until we leave to come home. I know Cubby is going to play the tables and thats why he is going. But the rest of us should make plans for some fun other than gambling most of the shows are on sale but who knows they have a lot of conventions so they may be taken full price. We like steak, prime rib, and some seafood. ;)

I think your right about being staggered it would be better if we all exchange cell phone numbers that will make it easier for everyone to find each other. I dont have anything planned we are open to what ever others would like to do but do want to spend time with the group going because we have not meant any of you whereas RA you know everyone. While everyone will not be driving we will still be together as in any other Event aftyer you park your cars.;)

Haha, Fred .... I meant - litterly- we may be "staggering" :beerchug: - Hmmmm, I don't know that I know everyone that is coming, we don't even know who all will be coming - but this meeting will be much different than Colorado where there will be actual events and activities. This just started out that Cubby & Marion (Cubby) wanted to come to LV for a gambling junket and I said, well if you're getting this close to me let me know and we can see who all wants to lose some money and drink together! Haha .... and, and you see what a struggle it is to get Cubby to sit down to one meal ... and it will probably be the only one he eats - I understand that when he is in Vegas he is on a liquid diet! :D I don't think I will go see Ron White, as much as I like him, I'd rather be in a casino socializing or gambling .... or at dinner eating, as food is a priority in my life! Gotta do a Wynn's crab (not crap) buffet. :rocker: As it gets closer we will do a PM list of our cell numbers ...
I think this is going to be great fun ... Lot's to do for everyone.
Mar - maybe you could start a sub list for those who want to go to the Ron White show. ???

I understood what you meant :beerchug: but we will not arrive at the same time so cell nimber exchange is important to us so we can find you. hic:lol: We will be leaving a day early and stay at Laughlin one night. If were going to be together it would be foolish not to have fun together. We had a comp for Wynn and were going to stay there but couldnt get the room for all three days they were booked out for Saturday. We like that Casino and want to try there buffet so were there with you on that.:willy_nilly:
