Weekend update.. with aaalan jooordan.
Whew. Long time no update. So lets hit it like the Red
Now... onto last weekend. Some of you know that I took off to Philly to visit my good friend Jerry and then to Atantic City to take some of their money.
I about missed my friggen flight out of Indy. WTH. I get to the aiport about 45 mins before flight time and satnd in this line ot check in at the curb. Pretty easy thing to do.. but everyone else was doing it as well. Most of hte people were retarded and had problems or didn't know what was going on. Finally.. I get to the kiosk and go ot check my bag as I've already checked in via the web the night before. The screen comes up to see an NWA Rep inside. So inside i go. There is a guy walking around so I ask him whats up. He tells me to go to first class line since my flight is a half our from leaving. I get to first class, and the lady tells me i can't check this bag since checked baggage must be in 30 mins prior.. and that I'm missing the flight. She then asks where the bag is i need to check. I point out the bag in frotn of her.. and she says.. you don't need ot check that. Thats small enough as a carry on. SO off I go. I'm thru security in about 15 minutes.. so I've got about 15 minutes to spare until my flight leaves. Piece of cake.
I get into Phily and Jerry picks me up. We head to a ship museaum. Pretty cool sutff. Most of the ships are miniature versions of the real thing in some scale. We walk around there for an hour or so then take a walk thru of a submarine and an old naval ship. Some guys who sailed on the sub were down in the main control room so we stopped and talked to thme for a short time. They answered our questions, and showed us little things about the sub that we wouldn't have observed normally.
Friday nite we caugh a Phillies and Reds game. That was a good time. We could have sat wherever we wanted depending upon what we wanted to pay for tickets. its nice to walk up to a ballpark and get tickets that easily. We met and Jason and Melissa there. They are friends of Jerry and Ann. Neat people. I like how they roll.
Then it was back to Jerry's for a Tiger Woods. Jerry won by 2 strokes, and Jason was behind me by 1. Not bad at all for someone who's never played that game.
Saturday.. Jerry made a kickin breakfast. I think I should just go live there so I can get that stuff all the time. It was excellent.
I left Kevin a voice mail.. but didn't get a return call. Not all day. Booooo!! Apparently he was working all day and wasn't able to make it out. its 170 miles or some from him to AC.. so that would have been a drive. We'll catch him next time I'm sure.
We arrive at Ceaser's and check into our comp'ed room. :) Pretty sweet to stay there for free.
We head to the casino to check things out. Nothing but $25 tables. We're looking for elcheapo tables. i'd like my hunny to last more than 4 hands of black jack. After some walking around we hit the Tropicanna. $15 talbles. We're on. We're doing pretty well too. I think I'm up about $300 or $400 and end the 6 hour playing marathon with $300ish in my pocket. Not bad. We hit up the local hooters, which is also in the Tropicanna for dinner. I do a dozen oysters with a burger and fries. Good food. Oh ya.. a pitcher of beer too.
I think jerry brings up the idea of a nudie joint, so I yell at a guy and ask if he's local and if he knows of a good strip club thats close. He tells us of one just a block away or so. We chekc it out. Its all nude. Crazy stuff. They didn't sell alky in there, but there was liquor store right next door that did sell carry out. $14 bucks later we're sitting outside this club waiting ot get in with a 12 pack fo bud light. After about 30 mins of waiting, we finally get in. I think money talks around here since I kept seeing people moved from one line to another line. I think they were slipping the door guys some $20s.. or maybe a hunny or two. We both got a neck massage from this (clothed) chick. $10 each and she took care of us. Its felt pretty good.. but I think I wouldn't have paid $10 for it. I guess I'm not a massage kinda person.
We leave there and hit the caino for a quick game... since we're drunk. We promptly loose 100 in 3 hands. No good.. oh well I'm still up. After this.. we try slots for a few minutes. I leave there up $15 or so. Jerry drops $30.
We sleep untill about noon. Wake up and do lunch at the Hard Rock on the boardwalk Good food and I ate big. A 12oz. NY strip with checken breaast on the side. The chicken was excellent. it could be some of the best chicken I have ever eaten. maybe thats cause I was hungry tho.. who knows.
We bail outta there, and hit ceasar's to win back our dinner. Before we walked in, I told jerry, If I double my money.. I'm out. Well.. I do that in about 15 minutes. Jerry talks me into staying in since we have an hour and a half to kill. I do.. and proceed to loose my winnings. not a big deal since I got a few drinks, and got to paly for an hour. We then do ice cream as some janky shop on teh boardwalk. One of those choclate vanilla swirl cones that you'd get as kid at the tasty freeze.. or whatever mom and pop ice cream joint was around the corner.
