it's his lucky machine....

I've been to Vegas 8 times, 6 of those for work conventions.  Stumble back to the hotel at 1:30 am, leave it at 7:30 am.... the same people at the machines and tables in the morning.

One of the more depressing experiences I had was when I was leaving this downscale casino hotel I was staying at for a non-gambling thing I was doing in Vegas to go to the airport, 715am on a Sunday morning, and seeing just the most depressing group of people sitting at the slots, expressionless faces, mechanically putting coin after coin in the slot and pulling the arm, with all the computerized faux-festive music pouring out of the machines nonstop. I was thisclose to shedding a tear in despair at the scene.

Casinos hire some very smart people, phd level smart, who know what triggers the chemicals in our brains. The sounds and sights are designed for that.  That said I love going there. We don’t gamble.  Just enjoy hanging out and people watching and driving out to the desert for a few hours.  Haven’t been since February 2020 though.  (We made fun of people wearing masks).  It’s gotten kind of pricey to where we decide to go on a “real” vacation.  Meaning if we are going to drop a few grand then do tropical or something.

As someone who has gambled a lot, never had the desire to go to Vegas. But I hate travel in general.

We've booked a trip to Vegas in May. Not planning to gamble much if at all. I think we have 3 days 4 nights on a package with Marriott. Highlight will be a helicopter tour of the Grand Canyon along with a Vegas at night flyby.
 

It was either that or Chicago in concert.

I know a woman who is really into the essential oils etc. I mean REALLY into them. She always has an earthy scent about her.

I thought of that.

I should rewatch that series.  What's the name of the song at the end?  Best series ending ever.

at the end, you mean the last episode?       "Breathe Me" by Sia.     Yes, that was the best series ending of all time.   When Family Guy goes off the air, I bet they'll spoof that ending.

I think this as their best one ever! I love the Michael Che prank bringing the woman in.
