Thank you! We're holding a musical celebration this evening. Feel free to drop by. We have 111 votes in our current poll, we only need 89 votes to reach 200! It would be much appreciated if everyone would share our games with their friends.

The town will never be the same. After the Tangiers, the big corporations took it all over. Today it looks like Disneyland. And while the kids play cardboard pirates, Mommy and Daddy drop the house payments and Junior's college money on the poker slots. In the old days, dealers knew your name, what you drank, what you played. Today, it's like checkin' into an airport. And if you order room service, you're lucky if you get it by Thursday.

Today, it's all gone. You get a whale show up with four million in a suitcase, and some twenty-five-year-old hotel school kid is gonna want his Social Security Number. After the Teamsters got knocked out of the box, the corporations tore down practically every one of the old casinos. And where did the money come from to rebuild the pyramids? Junk bonds.

But in the end, I wound up right back where I started. I could still pick winners, and I could still make money for all kinds of people back home. And why mess up a good thing?

And that's that.

Yeah, we started it to celebrate 200 days of our region, so it's relatively new. I'm quite liking it so far - It's nice to see posts here from people who can't post on our RMB.

Thanks! I'm glad you enjoy them.

We're hoping to run several games at the World Fair this year. I'm really looking forward to it. And of course, we'll have some great Rat Pack tunes too!
