Buzz,

After you and I talked, Mom thought that it would be easier to use Sunday as our driving day, so we go in "sometime" on Sunday later in the day most likely. So we will see you there Monday!

Joey,

RSVP for Me and Mom we are coming in sometime on Sunday as stated above, and are leaving somoetime on Thursday. We are going to stay at the Riverside this year to try something different. They are sold out, but TRIPRES has some of there rooms as they have prepurchased some blocks of rooms.

Folks,

Reserve your rooms fast as the hotels sell out pretty quick, or start jacking up the rates even more! Be there or be square, or hungry and lonely! Seriously all are welcome, and it is a good time to meet a bunch of us slot geeks in the NLG family!

I found some of the Hotels were showing as sold out, so I used TRIPRES.COM like I did last year and found rooms available at good prices. They usually commit to blocks of rooms from the various hotels that they can sell off when the actual hotel is fully booked!

Just thought that I would share this info with others.... Hope to see many folks there!

Bunker That is the Colorado River, but it's so full of Jet Skis that we take the Boat about 5 miles North to Lake Mojave and have all the room in the world to have FUN. If the candy ASS won't get on a ski, maybe he can be goaded into getting on the new water pull toy I just bought.  HOPE the Skipper has all the pass words for 

I'm staying at the Edgewater ( the one in the middle in Joey's pic. ) Not a 4 Star Hotel but $50 Monday night and comp.Tues and Wed nights.

[CaptainHappy]

Joey  Need to add 3 more to my list.  I should see you in less than a week. Just as soon as we get the new motor in the Jet Boat. I don't know what happened, the old motor has got 7 cracked pistons and a blown head gasket. Old motor is a 396 and were putting in a 454, it should kick ass.

Looks like we will not make it either, just to many relatives to visit this summer.

Hey Buzz that 454 should pull Joey up out of the water with no problem.

 Ron were going to use the Ski Boat for/on Joey, waiting for a power prop to come in, figured needed some help to get his fat ass up on a ski. Besides that boat had a bent prop shaft so had to install a new one might as well change props at the same time.  I need to find a boat shop that will trade me parts for slot machines !!!!

Joey,

I have just changed jobs so its a bit unfortunate but I won't have any holidays until this fall.
I am hoping to come out during the Labor day Long weekend but will need to play by ear.
I know our daughters are communicating via vi facebook so you may already know this.

LAUGHLIN - While communities across the nation are downsizing Independence Day celebrations Laughlin is doubling the fun, adding a second night of fireworks and increasing the shell count for the annual Rockets Over the River Fourth of July event. On Saturday, July 2, and Monday, July 4, a continuous barrage of excitement will burst over the clear waters of the Colorado River.

“Celebrating Independence Day isn't something Laughlin takes lightly. This is our gift to the Tri-state and we want to continue our momentum as the fireworks capital of the Southwest,� said MJ Smith of the Laughlin Tourism Commission.

Pyrotecnico, of New Castle, Penn., a family-owned company in business since 1889, will produce both shows. The Vitale family provided fireworks and effects for the Super Bowl XXXVIII halftime show, the Democratic National Convention, the Kings of Leon music videos and the Baltimore New Year's Eve Spectacular.

“We are planning a show to knock your socks off,� Smith said. “Last year's show was reportedly the biggest in the state, firecracker for firecracker, and this year will be even better. With many cities paring down celebrations this Fourth of July, Laughlin is proud to yet again deliver a breathtaking fireworks show.�

Laughlin will launch more than 17,000 shots, peppering the sky with a patriotic light show guaranteed to thrill even the most jaded fireworks viewers, and taking in the excitement from the banks of the Colorado River makes the experience even more thrilling.

“It's a spectacular show no matter how you look at it,� Smith said. “You can step out of the casinos onto the Riverwalk, or just hang out on the banks of the river. Either way you have a front row seat.�

The Saturday show will be choreographed to summer-fun music while Monday's show will dance to a more traditional, patriotic beat. Rockets Over the River will be simulcast on all the Cameron Broadcasting Stations: AM 1000 KFLG (known as K-Star); AM 1230 KAAA; AM 1490 KZZZ; the Tri-state's number one country station, Country K-Flag at 95.9 and 94.7 FM; the number one classic rock station, Lucky 98 FM; and the Tri-state's number one hit music station, The Knack 107.1.

“Pyrotecnico choreographed the show to upbeat, feel-good music,� Smith said. “The finale will have everyone on their feet and proud to be an American.�

Shows will begin after dark, at roughly 9:30 p.m.

Arizona Diary
Moving to Arizona: The Heat is On............


This diary of moving to Arizona has made it's way around emails and the Internet thousands of times. I have seen so many versions for so many cities (even a snowy version for Wisconsin) that I'm sure it can no longer be attributed to any author. I certainly didn't write it!

People who move to Arizona, though, can easily identify with it. You'd better read this--this could be your diary!




 



May 15th: Now this is a state that knows how to live! Beautiful sunny days and warm balmy evenings. Mountains and deserts blended together. What a place! Watched the sunset from a park lying on a blanket. It was beautiful. I've finally found my home. I love it here.

 

June 14th: Really heating up. Got to 108 today. Not a problem. Live in an air-conditioned home, drive an air-conditioned car, work in an air-conditioned office. What a pleasure to see the sun every day like this. I'm turning into a real sun worshipper.

June 30th: Had the backyard landscaped with western plants today. Lots of cactus and rocks. What a breeze to maintain. No more mowing for me. Another scorcher today, but I love it here.

July 10th: The temperature hasn't been below 100 all week. How do people get used to this kind of heat? At least it's a dry heat. Getting used to it is taking longer than I expected.

July 15th: Fell asleep by the pool. Got 3rd degree burns over 60% of my body. Missed two days of work; what a dumb thing to do. I learned my lesson though: got to respect the ol' sun in a climate like this.

July 25th: Dry heat, my butt. Hot is hot! The home air-conditioner is on the fritz and the A/C repairman charged $250 just to drive by and tell me he needed to order parts.

July 30th: Been sleeping outside by the pool for three nights now. $1,600 in damn house payments and we can't even go inside. Why did I ever come here?

August 4th: 115 degrees! Finally got the air-conditioner fixed today. It cost $1,200 and gets the temperature down to about 90. I hate this [expletive deleted] state.

August 8th: If another wise a** cracks, "Hot enough for you today?" I'm going to tear his [expletive deleted] throat out. Damn heat. By the time I get to work the radiator is boiling over, my clothes are soaking wet, and no deodorant works well enough!

August 10th: The weather report might as well be a damn recording: Hot and Sunny. It's been too hot to sleep for two damn months and the weatherman says it might really warm up next week. Doesn't it ever rain in this barren damn desert? $1,700 worth of cactus just dried up and blew into the [expletive deleted] pool. Even a cactus can't live in this heat.

August 14th: Welcome to Hell! Temperature got to 120 today. Forgot to crack the window and blew the [expletive deleted] windshield out of the BMW. The installer came to fix it and said, "Hot enough for you today?" My wife had to spend the $1,600 house payment to bail me out of jail.



August 30th: Worst day of the damn summer. I'm not leaving the house. The [expletive deleted] monsoon rains finally came and all they did is to make it muggier than hell. The BMW is now floating somewhere in Mexico with its new $500 windshield. nobody told me about staying out of the washes during a "flash flood" warning. That does it. We're moving back to California and buying a house next to the freeway for some peace and quiet.
