Hmmmm...maybe I need to drag my kilted self over there after all.
I have a standing offer: I'll pay anyone Fifty Cents on the Dollar for any money they plan to gamble with. That way we both win.
Hate to see my kilted brothers shorn like the sheep who donated the wool for our kilts....

LMKAO!! 
Don't worry Ron, when Karen and I "gamble", we stick to the nickel slots and limit ourselves to $10/day. We'd rather spend our time looking at the various sights than sitting in front of a table or slot machine.

Cool Al.
I usually make my money standing in front of the lottery machines at the supermarket and making that offer until I get run off by management.
Amazing how many people turn down such a good deal and lose 100% of their money instead of at least recoverying half of it through my offer.
Maybe the kilt puts them off...think they're on some sort of a hidden camera reality show.
Hey, has anyone been to the Las Vegas games before. Looks like its pretty good from the webpages...?

Bit of an update, and a test.
The labour talks broke down again yesterday, with the city walking away from the table. We're still working to rule, but that will be of great benefit to me. It means that no-one is working overtime, but we can still work for cash. IE, I can pay a driver who has a day off to work for me that day.
What does this all mean? Las Vegas, here we come! We will be arriving sometime in the afternoon on Friday, the 20th, and we're staying until at least the following Thursday. WOOHOO!! We can't wait!
As for the test...I'm posting from my new (used) laptop using a wireless connection. Been fighting to get it to connect for 3 days! I think it's finally working.

I generally just get a wad of cash, go up to the casino door, open it - then throw it all into the casino - Saves both Me and the Casino a lot of time
