They are going to Las Vegas, guys. Live with it! LOL I have never set foot in the place and successfully avoided several conventions in the town. Unfortunately, I had to do Atlantic City - poverty stricken as well as tawdry.

Anyway, the young man and I went to a ball game last night. On the way there, he mentioned that his grandfather, AKA Kendall the Grump,had opined that baseball is boring and silly with a bunch of grown men running around chasing a ball.
Our team (took me three innings to figure out who that was) was down by two runs, had a man on first and another on third. My companion was on the edge of his seat fixated on the batter. "Just a home run and we win". I asked him if he was bored and he laughed.
Didn't like the time outs, though.
I love night time baseball.
