casinos and gambling
I happen to live in an area with multiple Indian casinos a brief drive from my home.  My girlfriend and I go about once or twice a month on Friday nites to eat our "free" meal and then I only bring 40 to 60 dollars to play.  It is just fun to people watch and be in the action for a couple of hours.  I sometimes win, mostly don't but if I can go home with what I brought or even something in my wallet, I feel like I've won.  It's a great way for us to rehash our work week (we've know each other for 40 years)...and have some fun.  She has a lucky gene, I'm sure of it so I spend a lot of time just watching her push buttons.
He was gambling at the hotel at the time with another friend. He was there. nm

Soooo let's talk casinos and gambling

I had lunch today with my women's golf group at a buffet inside one of the local casinos. I was astounded to see how many people were in there, gambling away, mid-day, mid-week. I must admit, I've never been in a casino before this afternoon, so I am totally in the dark as to what the appeal is.


Any of you here enjoy the games, the gambling, the atmosphere (at least it wasn't smoky!)? What's the draw, cuz I sure don't get it?


No wait, wait... 'mere Mom, me and my friends

can all drink it too.  Come on guyz... my Mom won't mind, have a drink and have some fun.  Bring the chocolate syrup!  Doesn't she have big nipples.  "My Dad likes 'em too and my baseball coach!     


It was on CNN tonight.

TONIGHT!
Oh, children.......Tonight is the night....Can't wait!
Not tonight.
It's my bowling night (time away from everyone) so it's fast food night, but I love using the crockpot in the fall and I've been looking on the internet for quick easy recipies that I've been trying for the past few weeks.
She may be gone tonight
Hopefully. I can't stand her. Did you notice that she was in the room of the people who were leaving and then they moved her to another room? Rose was the one who's parents had died she had blond hair and was very young. I liked her a lot. I think the guy who's wife died has an amazing voice. He was my pick. I also can't believe the guy who played that character actually made it through to the next round.
AI Tonight
I won't go into who made it either for those who may have it taped, but I was really pleased with the results and loved seeing Michael Johns. Loved him from last year and very hot in person. I hate the format this year like I mentioned above. I liked it better the other years, but this year we get 3 Wild Cards so maybe your favorites who don't make it in the next three weeks will be back.
AI Tonight
I think Lil and Matt or Lil and Anoop will go home tonight. I really do like Anoop though. My top three prediction, Adam, Danny and Chris with Adam winning. (Love Adam). I'd be very happy with a Danny win also. I'm getting my AI concert tickets when they go on said May 9th. I'm so excited!
Thanks for this! I will try this tonight....yummy. nm

AI is on tonight at 8, Dubya at 9! nm

Saw the kitty tonight!
We went to see the cat tonight.  She is doing as well as can be expected.  Very happy to see us.  Apparently, she does not like the tech who is watching her (stranger to her) but started to purr as soon as I scratched behind her ears.  Plus I brought her bed.  I just hope we brought some comfort to her.  It was very hard to leave though.  Once again, you all are a great group and your kind words are much appreciated! 
Did anyone see "Lost" tonight?

Man, I was so sucked in by Juliet's act - what is her game? Tonight we find out she was angry with Ben because he wouldn't let her go home and she was afraid her sister had died from the cancer instead of being cured like Ben said. Then he shows her pictures of her sister, happy and healthy, with her two-year-old son.


So, even though he won't let her leave, Juliet has every reason to be grateful to him for curing her sister. So was her whole act with the posters telling Jack to kill Ben on the operating table just to gain Jack's confidence - and thereby (with the help of Ben and his magic button that activated an implant they put in Claire) ingratiate herself with the group - and to what purpose?


And is her story about the pregnant women dying true? Yes, one of them appeared to die on the operating table, but obviously while they had Claire they weren't just "saving her life" - they implanted her with some kind of device for their own purposes.


Man....I was really starting to feel sorry for Juliet.  I wanted to like her. And now this.   Can't wait till next week!


What's for dinner tonight?

I got mine from PA tonight
I'll send it out this week. 
Thank you, but I'm so frustrated tonight
as my daughter just came in crying (it's way past her bedtime) afraid that she's going to miss her advanced-math class that she's in because they do group work and there's really no way to make it up once she misses it. This kid even goes to school SICK because she doesn't want to miss school! She's a type A personality, minus the chit-chat.

I never thought I'd have a kid beg me to sign a paper that tells the school to paddle her, but that's exactly what she wants. How do I argue with her when she doesn't want her grade to be affected?

I went through their school handbook tonight with a fine toothed comb and see that indeed corporal punishment versus ISS is the choice in frequent tardies. I've heard rumors that the principal of her school is not very friendly, so I'm really not excited about having to discuss this with him (I'm having a few mini-crises myself right now, and with the holidays, this really is stressing me out).

I want to take the simple way and just sign her paper, but then I don't know, is that really the right thing to do? Probably not.

Calgon, take me away!
Party tonight...

Other than being well hydrated and snacking, any other suggestions to stave off a hangover in the morning....just in case I might have 1 too many Fuzzy Navels?


It's my first NYE party in ages...I'm so excited!!!


What's for supper tonight? (had to ask)
Yesterday's sounded so good, wondering what is up for today. LOL.
Uh-oh on supper tonight....sm

Last week I made a beef pot roast with the trimmings.  When I do this we always have enough for another meal.


Tonight for supper I was going to warm up the rest of the beef and put BBQ sauce on it.  I started looking in the fridge and couldn't find the left over roast.  So I called my hubby who didn't know where it was.  Next I went to the 16 and 7-year-old and asked them where the meat was.


The 7-year-old said "mom - the dogs were looking real hungry the other night so I gave it to them!"


So much for supper tonight!  She's never done anything like that before and now knows to never feed the dogs anything other than their usual dog food without permission.  I hope the 3 dogs loved their special treat!!!  


Ok, N/T is on tonight but I need an update ... sm

What happened to Kimber and Matt.  I keep forgetting it is on and the last one I saw was that Matt and Kimber were meth heads and the baby was not doing so good.  And...how did Julia end up with Christian?  What happened to her lesbian lover?? 


Thanks!  Now that I am remembering it is on, I am trying to catch up!


Thanks for recipe. Will try it out tonight. nm

Been a while - What's for dinner tonight??
Looking for ideas! :)
Ok, now I definitely have to watch it tonight
and not wait until Monday. :)
definitely watch tonight! enough said! nm

Tonight we are having spaghetti.

Well, my fav got dismissed tonight
but according to what you are saying, my favorite, Ricky might stand another chance. I think he is really good. I knew Titiana (sp?) was finished. She had a good voice but the craziness is not something that plays out good with the audience. I think she was trying to fake the tears upon leaving last night. I am surprised the Anoop or Enoop ?? was dismissed. Thought shades of the other Indian guy being on forever and not having an oz of talent but the looks to get him through (how soon I forget their names). I am agreeing with you this morning, maybe for the last time, but I also do not like the format. I like Michael, big ole teddy bear he is. I really like Danny. He is probably my favorite but again the sympathy factor might play some in that. Talk AI later.
I think the bottom 3 tonight will be
Lil, Matt, and Allison. Possibly Kris. I think Matt's going home, simply because he's not as memorable as some of the others even though I really like him.
what's for dinner tonight?
If it was left up to me I would just have popcorn, but I have a husband and kids who get hungry every once in a while.  Oh the good old single days when I could have a Pop Tart for dinner and be satisfied!!
high of 25, low of 1 tonight, nebraska!

Alana voted off tonight and
I am SO glad. She was a little snit, making snide remark to Simon as he told her she ran out of steam. Well, she did, hello! Do these people not understand going against the judges will not work for you? Now there is another think she has it when she doesn't that needs to hit the door just anytime, Antonella.
Who's going home on AI tonight? Chris maybe.

Fun poll: What's for dinner tonight? sm
I know, I know, it's early but I tend to think about it early. Last night I was in a rush. I had one of those Hormel pork tenderloin rolls out to thaw. You can get them at the store for about 6-7 bucks. Different flavors, lemon and garlic, teriyaki, mesquite, etc. I had the teriyaki one.  I cooked it different this time though. I wrapped it real tight in foil. Then, in one of those throw away foil pans,  I put in 2 packages of hash browns, 2 sticks of butter and seasoned it with Mrs. Dash and covered it real tight with foil, too. Then, I took some left over carrots and some stewed Italian tomatoes and put them in foil and wrapped it real tight. Then, I took the whole shebang and put it on the grill and cooked it all on medium to high with the lid closed, turning the potatoes frequently. It was ready in 45 minutes. We sat down to eat.  There were 3 of us, me, hubby and boy wonder #3. We thought we died and went to heaven. First time in ages the whole meal went in one shot. Gosh, it was so good. Tonight were going to have a turkey breast on the grill. Can't wait......   
Thanks in advance for my nightmare tonight. nm

Saw this on the news tonight, did not watch
the show. BTW, we also wear shoes, guess that will be the next comment that will be taken at face value!
Just ran into a friend of mine tonight who see msg

is doing a lot of research and warned me about the harmful effects of microwaves on food. Studies show that cholesterol levels in many studies is actually elevated in foods when heated in a microwave. There are other effects as well.


Also, I used to take the warnings about aspartame rather lightly, hearing both good and bad. Last year on the Today Show they reported that a study from Duke University claimed it was safe. I think after tonight and after doing a search on it I will try to avoid it altogether. I think I am safer with sugar or Stevia.


Just wanted to pass this along. I know this information is probably not new, just somewhat shocking and worrisome to me.


What's on the menu for dinner tonight? nm

  


Anyone else's yahoo e-mail down tonight? nm

Just bought a hybrid tonight
Three people I know are in love with their Toyota Prius hybrids, and one of those people is my cousin who is an auto mechanic. One of these people bought a Prius the first year they were available and has put 200,000 miles on it without any major problem ever. With my hubby commuting 50 miles a day, we decided to give it a go and bought one tonight. No deals to be made, because people are waiting for the cars at this time But we thought the price was fair, and hope we can drive this car for a very long time. Ours won't arrive for another 5 weeks or so, but that's ok. I'm looking forward to those 40+ mpgs that my friends and family are getting with their Prius.
Who do you want to win? Winner announced tonight!! SM
There is no way I could make that decision.  This season has just been amazing.  I must say that Joshua is outstanding and jumps higher than I can believe.  They are all so wonderful.   
Amazing finale tonight
I'm really happy Joshua won - DH too. Was nice to see the two judges dance too. I looked at DH and said "Well I guess now you know what qualifies them to judge". Debbie Allens students were way too cute, and Nigel could sure move those taps. Loved seeing the older dancers. Dimitri is still a dream. I'd take dancing lessons from him any day.
If you do this tonight, you'll not run into any problems! - sm
Tomorrow's Halloween!
What's cooking for dinner tonight?
I'm thinking tacos with corn bread for me and my fam. 
He is going to stay with a friend tonight.....

Actually, no, I am not taking it now
Just heard back on the market in a new name and thought would tell what I experienced from trying it the first time. Hear only have 15% fat and after that it is throne time- if you can make it there.
anyone taking Yaz ........... sm

anyone taking Yas specifically to treat PMS symptoms???  my doctor gave me three months' worth of Yaz to see if it helps my symptoms.  i haven't taken the pill in ages.  when i used to take it, i got really bad migraines.  i've been doing a little research, and found that people have side effects like nausea, anxiety, weight gain.  i know side effects differ from person to person, but wondering what your experience was.  i'm not a big pill taker. 


thanks


Try taking

vitamin C 500 mg with the iron, it is supposed to help with the iron absorption and help with constipation and nausea as well.


On top of being anemic, I also have psoriasis, so I have my hair falling out (including pubic, lol) and constantly looks like I have extremely dry skin on my face, ears and scalp. 


i'm taking it now.
But only for a month so far. I have high cholesterol but way worse triglycerides. I've had no side effects that i can contribute to it definitively; some muscle pain that i'm concerned about, but it could be a recent back injury worsening too...

what i DON'T like is that it is a statin. I understand that statins work really well to achieve the goal usually, but they also have bad side effects, including rhabdomyolysis. I've read a lot too on this class of drugs, and really didn't want to take them again, but for me, i'm at high risk for stroke or heart attack if i can't get my numbers down, so it is the lesser of evils i guess.

My educated opinion is this: if your cholesterol is NOT that high, and overall risk factors are not a real concern, i'd stay away from the drugs, statins in particular. If you do however take a statin, be sure to take the CoQ-10, which helps protect against the cell damage and effects of the statins. High cholesterol alone, in more recent studies, is not that indicative of a future problem. Lack of exercise and high-fat diets put one more at risk than cholesterol elevation. Like i said, without real necessity, i would not take a statin.
You are obviously set on taking
It's really sad...obviously you are not doing that bad, after all your child has a Wii...sounds very selfish to me, but hey...that's just me! Merry Christmas
I do not think that taking out ALL of the...
money from the joint accounts and putting it in one in only her name, as advised above, is acting defensively. You are entitled to your opinion and I to mine, but keep in mind that your children see how you act. That is all I am saying.
taking away
We had my son take verything out of his room, every nail out of the wall, put all his belongings in the garage, paint his room (which looked terrible by the way), and sleep on the floor until he surrendered his stubborness (about three nights on the floor). Then he had to put his room back together again.

This did not cure him, but it let him know that we were more stubborn than he was..
Good luck!
