New Orleans
Back in 2001, Emma and I spent a week in New Orleans, otherwise know as the Cresent City because of its shape or the BIG EASY because of its attitude. We had a great time, Bourban street, House of Blues, Jimmy Buffets, cemetaries, trolley cars!

Las Vegas Vacation

Caesar's Palace.
So the dealer says to me, "why don't you just give me all your money and then we can go out in back and I'll kick you in the ass, and we can call it even?" Boy that sure would of saved a lot of time.
