I could never gamble at Vegas. The industry is a machine designed to vacuum money out of your pockets. All of it, down to the small change. Did you know the people in the industry have a name for anyone they see twice? Loser. Have fun. Sorry to be such a downer. I hear they have good shows.

Mike bought this book when we went to Vegas - I forget what it's called, but they sell them all over the place there -- it helps teach you about 21 -- is that what the game is called?

Anyways, apparently the real money to be made is at cards...Mike spent HOURS at the different tables and even talked about how he left when a table got "cold." Hahahaha!!

He watched some crazy high rollers too -- at Treasure Island, this guy was betting so much money, the hotel staff gave him a voucher for an escort. Vegas is so classy, eh?

At one point, Mike won so much money he had a few $1000 chips -- he carried them around with him for a while, but ended up losing it all by the end of the trip. Hahahahaha!!

ENJOY, Shannon!!
