United States - August 2007

For the past few days now trains traveling through downtown (where I live) have been waking me up at 3 & 4 in the morning. I don't even live that close to the train tracks, but they honk those things so loud that you can hear them for miles. What possible purpose could there be to these train conductors doing that at these ungodly hours? It makes me so mad!! I swear some of those guys must do it just to piss people off. I could see them giving the horn a few good toots once in a while, but it seems like they lay on them for about 10 minutes straight, at the loudest volume setting, with maybe a 4 second interval. It's insane!!!

The ones in the subway, (with their patter of "Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, Jus' got otter the hospital.") have been there-----I swear ta God-----since the Columbia revolution of schoolchildren in 68. Do you think the Jews had anything to do with that, since the leadership cadre was Entirely Jewish,

I came out to Las Vegas from Los Angeles on a shoe string budget of $20000 . I had no job lined up, I rented a room in a house for $600 per month. I have an old car thats hitting 100000 miles and the clothes on my back. Basically to make a long story short, in 5 trips to the different casinos on the strip, Ive managed to come up $8000 pure profit including show tickets, 4 compt dinners at the Bellagio, Ceasars, MGM, and The Mirage. I also got compt a junior suite at the Ballegio that was going for $489 per night for FREE. I am counting cards and its working just like I had practiced for the last 2 years with the +1 and -1 system and its been working like a charm. I feel like Mr. Las Vegas and Im ready to bring the house down. Im having dreams of making millions and become the next blackjack mastermind of the new milleniium. Ive actually been treated with alot of respect from the pit bosses, the shift managers, the dealers, and have been offered alot of extras. Is this talent or luck ?

I'm going to go to Florida in a week and want to know if it's worth the drive from Orlando to Key west? I've never been and I know It's like a 6-8 hour drive there but It looks really pretty and that highway that goes over the ocean looks really cool I'd also plan on doing snorkeling plus parasailing and riding wave runners out there So Is it worth the drive or not? Thanks ♥

What is the reason that there are protests against the Super Ferry? You would think that easy access to the Islands at a reasonable price would be a good thing. Tahiti's ferrys are nice and appear to cause no problems. they are inexpensive and very effective. Is this something that the Airlines are promoting because the Ferry will take business away from them?
