What would Thanksgiving be without the generosity of Native Americans??  In an effort to properly celebrate the tradition of Thanksgiving I decided to pay a visit to the nearest tribal nation I could think of.  The Mohegan Tribal Reservation.  After about a 45 minute drive I arrived ready to pay my respects.  When I got there I wasn't surprised to not see that many people there, but i was surprised at the very large number of Chinese people that were lurking about with their digital cameras.  We are talking thousands... (which explains the 75+ buses I saw in the parking lot on the way in)  Chinatown must have been shut down today. 

So now I am standing there at the craps table and there was this one short chinese guy creeping me out.  He was standing so close to me I felt like I had to check for my wallet every 2 seconds.  He could have been my siamese twin he was so close.  What's even weirder was that he smelled like Christmas cookies...  You know..  The white ball ones with the powdered sugar on them.  It must be that new chinese cologne from the makers of Teryaki Sport...

Anyways...  After about a ten minute wait with my new sidekick Wun Hung Lo, it was finally my turn to throw the dice.  I made my first three points and was up a bit, but while trying to make my 4th point I crapped out.  I was just about ready to leave when I said "fuck it..."  I threw all the money I had made off my first three points on the hard 8 (that's two fours for those of you who don't play craps...).  In craps the number 7 is the easiest to make followed by the 6 and the 8, the 5 and the 9, and so on getting harder as you go.  The chances of an 8 being rolled is pretty decent, but rolling a hard 8 is a bit harder.   I had luck on my side though.  Things have been going pretty decent for me lately so I decided to chance it.  The chance was worth it.  The very next roll was a hard 8.  So, being the smart gambler that I am and knowing when to quit I grabbed my chips and left.  Now, when I drive up to the casino next time I will be cruisin in style with the new in-dash DVD player I will be getting installed in my car tomorrow morning.  Thanks!!

The moral of this story is...  Watch out for creepy chinese tourists, pay your respect on the holidays, and take the occasional risk.  It may work out in the end and you'll be glad you did. 

Happy Thanksgiving to all of my friends, all of the Mohegans (and the Pequots even though I didnt visit them), and my new buddy Wun Hung Lo.  See you next year.  :-)  Be sure to watch for my Christmas special where I will be making a visit to the North Pole on Christmas Eve to wait up with Mrs. Clause and nag Santa for coming back so late and not bringing any cookies.  LMAO. 

With the heavy use of slang these days the letters K and Z are making a comeback.  Look out C and S...  It's time to step down from your pedistal and make way for the letters that deserve the attention.  Even the people at Skittles know that K is better than C.  Could you imagine eating Scittles??  What the???  That's one rainbow I wouldn't be tasting...

A special thanks also needs to go out to Snoop Diggity Dogg who not only thought the letter G was so cool he doubled up on them in his name, but also gave the letter Z the popularity it deserves by speaking such words as Shizzle, Nizzle, and Bizzle...

This message has been brought to you by the letter Z.

Why do I blog?  Because its therapeutic.  I can empty all my thoughts on any subject out onto this site and feel better because I voiced my opinion on something.  Every since I started this blog I have been addicted.  I had a few other blog setups, but they were limited.  Then, I foung the program I am using now (GeekLog) and fell in love with blogging.  It lets me do whatever I want.  And if I can't do it, I can just program it in or download a plugin for it.

Thanks for reading...  Come back anytime.
