Well it seams to me that Vegas was excellent. Good that you had your daughter to watch over you.
What about gambling? Did you win anything? Did you try anything? :-)

Ya, i gambled a little but everytime that slot machine sucked in my 20 dollar bill i may as well have just set that 20 on fire and watch it go up in flames!!! I would win just enough to keep playing, actually that is pretty much what i expected. I left my wheel barral home so i had no way to get my money around.lol.
I played black jack but i stayed on the 5 dollar table. Even the low betting tables are serious. If you don't hit or knock or pass or fold real quick like, the other players get a tad pissy!!! I won several hands by doubling down, but lost it all playing craps.
I did win 100 bucks on instant lottery but i took that money and went shopping. By the time i grabbed a few little rememberances for the kids, and a few for myself, that 100 dollar bill was history!!
I got my 19 year old son a lighter shaped like a big busted women with a pair of thongs on, when you flick it her boobs twinkle and a ooo aahhh ooo ahhhh sound comes out of it. He thought that was insane.
i bought 3 big beach towels with dice on them for the kids, each towel was 25 bucks. A stinky pair of dice was 10 bucks. I was just mentioning the price of the dice while i was trying to shoot craps and the pit boss over heard me. He came up to me and i thought i did something wrong. He asked me how many grands do i have. He walked away and came back with a little box and told me that when i opened it make sure that i was away from that table. Hmmmm...suspense in vegas. I went to another area and opened the box, inside of it was 4 pairs of dice, and 4 $1.00 chips, how sweet that was. So now the boys have real dice from the table and a real poker chip straight from vegas.

Wow you got some real nice souvenirs for your kids. I like the lighter. :-) I'm imagining my self telling the story that I got that lighter from my mother would be hilarious. :-) You are a good mom. I'll tell you that.
I'm just trying to imagine my mother giving me one of those lighters. :O
After she retired to Florida in 1960, she ran a Hallmark card shop in Port Charlotte for about 15 years. She had all kinds of gifts and stuff. When my wife and I went to visit, we were browsing the store and found a cute pair of green frog ceramic salt and pepper shakers. We decided to buy them. When I picked them up I found they were anatomically correct. My mother was shocked o.O She couldn't believe they made things like that and further couldn't believe her salesman had sold them to her for her nice little gift shop.>;) "He seemed like such a nice man."

With all of my kids being over 18, we joke about everything. Either one of my sons swear in front of me tho, which is kool. My 33 year old said "stupid ass" in front of me just a few weeks ago and he about passed out from being embarassed. It sounded so funny comin from him cuz i never hear him curse. I laughed so hard i started crying and ended up with a gut ache.
Wow, your son's 33 and you just hear him curse? I actually still haven't ever cursed in front of my parents. I wonder if they'd take it as well as you did. :-)
Oh my god bbfeet please tell me that you saw Penn and TEller. No, wait, don't. If i find out you saw them, I'll just die. They are my favorite magicians of all time.
I'm sorry healthnfitnessguy, i did not get to see Penn and Teller :-(
Did you see Penn on Dancing with the Stars last season? He actually lasted quite a while. Also, they were both on an episode of Top Chef, Las Vegas, only a few weeks ago.

Yes, I did see them on Top Chef. Too bad Toby Young was in that episode. I find him to be the most annoying judge and he never has anything productive to say. I don't even care that he's mean. He's just randomly mean without anything productive to say.
healthnfitnessguy, I know what you mean about Toby Young!! Talk about insulting! Did you hear him say that one of the chef's dishes tasted like cat food? How does he know what cat food tastes like in the first place?
Do you follow Top Chef Las Vegas? If you do, why not start another thread. I have a horrible habit of de railing threads anyway :$

Haha yes, well, you did just derail your own thread! Fine. I'll start the official SteadyHealth Top Chef thread! :-)
