    Win? yea right, after we finished sight seeing Hoover dam and the strip we had $80 left to blow and them casinos let us play for about 15 min.

    the show we went to see was called misery or something like that and it was Assam with there acrobatic skills and talent (im telling my daughter that wifey made me go see chippendales (male strippers) and im sticking to it)

    arrested? wifey installed a nose ring and a very short chain. wallet in the front pocket and dont look at the ladys, this is not a place you wont to be incapacitated

    You're right. I also won $7500 dollars. Which paid for a 2-week trip to Maui with my "would have been bride".
