who ****in cares? its our fault for sucking so much

Fwiw, I'm going to give you "friendly older-guy fellow-member advice" (unasked for I know) and not a mod view....you've been around awhile, you have a lot of posts, and your share of good ones, but you've made a lot of posts of fairly questionable behavior/judgment, and fairly often, the last year or more. You may want to just check things out a bit, or not.

Now more from a mod's view, you user note history is not in your favor, and in these days of B2A, many who have been around for a long time are being shown the door. That's not to be a threat or an intimidation, it's a caution because I care (board-wise) about most posters that aren't complete *******s.

So you might want to be cognizant that your posts aren't even close to violating any rules since folks with extensive records of violations are among the quickest to be punted these days when they get another one. And, if it's no biggy or you feel like "well **** you guys anyway" that's fine too.

Why is it going to be expensive

I wanted to go to Atlantic City, but I have never been and I've been to Vegas multiple times and I think Atlantic City will be a disappointment.

If you've been to Vegas DON'T go to AC. A couple of friends and I went a year after we went to Vegas and it was so depressing.

You're talking a $100 billion company. I've heard estimates of 80-100 per share.

But at the same time I've seen estimates at $50. Definitely going to be interesting the day it goes public.

It'll be a few months before the IPO.

I love love love February. My birthday, Valentine's Day, and it usually has a nice big snow storm. And short!

I want to do something for my birthday this year. I never really do anything. Any ideas? My birthday celebrating time falls on President's Day Weekend, so prices are always jacked up. I wanted to go to Atlantic City, but I have never been and I've been to Vegas multiple times and I think Atlantic City will be a disappointment.

depends if you want to do the nightlife. its a much more calmer at AC. you can have fun, and not so much black out type of drunk. if you are going only for the gambling, why not just go to Charlestown?

Hey, I'm a February baby too!!!! (10th)

If you do go to AC stay at The Borgata that place is beautiful.

I plan on getting a little drunk this year and just having fun.

Screw Valentine's Day

The girl on House Hunters went to VT and her dog's name is Beamer. Awesome.

On another note, I finally have a consistent schedule that allows me to go ride my horse 4 times a week. I'm ecstatic, to say the least

Welp, they're calling for a blizzard warning tomorrow. 12-16 inches of snow with 50 mph winds.

Gonna be fun...

Yeah, that's what I figured.

I don't like to gamble. I will play a few rounds of blackjack, but that's not why I love Vegas. I love going to the hotels and walking around and just seeing the sights and crazy people...and the fact that anything goes there.

My dog keeps farting, and it stinks bad. My wife gagged on the last one LOL.
