Hope he comes home with the deed to the Casino in his pocket.

Maybe it will comfort some others to know that story...it did for us.
yes. thank you for sharing.

and to Mr. Shear!

God Bless.

Glad to read Mr. Shear is on the road to recovery. It be tough for a man 1/2 his age, but he appears up to the task.

Hopefully they release the video to show peeps they need to be alert around these horses.

Hey John, I'm only 65 and have come to a pertinent Life decision. I want to be just like you, when I grow up!

You're my hero. Have a good trip to Las Vegas. Play good poker, take their money, and have a drink or two. I suggest leaving all those young purdy women alone or Diane will break the other leg.

I have a cousin in Vegas that moved there from Miami just to play Poker...she kicks a$$...plays all night, just about every night...she's 80 years young and I'm going to tell her to watch for John...she plays mostly at the Bellagio.

No kiddin'?? Small world, isn't it...I'm sending her an email with a photo of John attached... her name is Loucille...now wouldn't it be a kick if they were playing at the same table, Diane
The Bellagio shloud put out the red carpet for John and give him plenty of 'house' chips to play with!!
