RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: Hey Ga Thor, I am very happy you are getting away for some sun. I am really a lone wolf when I travel, I have been to Vegas a lot, done the guys trip a couple times, took the gal of the moment a couple of times, but mostly just go down to do some tanning, swimming, baseball betting and have some nice meals and of course sip a few Budweisers. I also meet a lot of intersting folks there. I stayed at the Bellagio last year, for the first time, I am not that rich, but always wanted to stay there, I got an okay deal so said what the heck. It was my most enjoyable trip to date. I really enjoyed their pool and buffet. The ambiance at the pool was the best beautifully decorated with trees shrubs and such and no boom boom music blasting, just quiet background music, very medicinal for me, as we all know I have a bad temper (need to work on that sorry folks) I saw Mathew Perry from Friends, I didn't recognise him, a lady from New Jersey I was chatting with, pointed him out. Later in the week I met Joe Hachem 2005 World Series Poker champ and his wife Genie and their daughters turns out we were sitting right beside each other at the pool. I chatted quite a bit with her, they were both very nice. I asked him about Phil Hellmuth and Mike Matusow and got a few chuckles. They run in differnt circles, at least from myself, LOL, movie stars and the like, it was very interesting.
My brother is in Palm Springs right now, he has a place there, but like myself we're no golfers, mostly in the interest of others..... Hawks are rolling nicely, I am sorry I have no idea who will win the Cup, my buddy though has Hawks, NYR, Tampa and the Ducks. $50 on each. I think the Pens will be in the running, Rangers, Blues will be a force, two really good goalies and very very tough at home, last year and this so far. I also like the Hawks a bit, I never thought they would start so fast. Vancouver, there just seems to be something missing with them, I don't know the answe either. One other I like is the Bruins, they have it all, except without Thomas I feel they are a bit weaker in goal. I like Tim Thomas and his political attitude.....ya I am on the FAR right....like that will shock anyone...LOL
I don't quite understand what this means..." I won an entry into horse players world series in Vegas 21st - 23rd" Could you please expalin that and 21-23rd I am guessing Feb. by the sound of your schedule? I will be at the Bellagio again on the dates I mentioned 18-26, booked it a couple of days ago, I really only travel once a year so what the heck, it gives me a carrot to look forward after long winter. I think I answered all your questions, I am hoping for $1.40 or better, would really love to see $1.80...just don't know if we can get there...but dang it would be sweet. One would think we will hear something in the next three weeks I guess, and it is only a guess.
