Jim - Believe me, I feel ya about the unemployment issue. Normally I'm not one to say to increase the time/money for public assistance, but considering these trying times, they should let people extend again, if they really need it and they are actually trying to get a job (such as you and myself). I admit that I don't have the roommate issue that you are having and I'm sorry to hear that, but I definitely feel ya on the end of unemployment issue. Mine ends at the end of May as well. Sounds like we're in the same boat, within reason.

Hopefully you will find something (and/or your room mate will too) soon and that will help you out. I would also explain the utility bill situation with your room mate and explain that if he can't afford to pay for it, then he can't afford to run up the bill because you can't afford to pay for it either. It's just how it actually is.

Good Monday Morning!

I hope you all have a enjoyable day. Don't work too hard! .
The sun is trying to peek through the clouds, so maybe today will turn out to be a fairly decent day after all!

Hello and good day to all. Ever notice how our visitors from earlier time zones come to visit when we are just waking up?

But, thanks, glad to have you.

Hope everyone has a good afternoon. Don't forget to prepare for Tuesday because it's coming, ready or not...

Cheers

Last I heard, we may be looking for experienced craps dealers if anyone is interested. Would require relocating to West Wendover though. I will check with my boss tonight.

I called the loan officer handling my loan application today and she said my application looks good and is going to email me my pre approval letter The next step is to contact the realtor and get a walkthrough of the house

Thumbs up Lookin good !!!

I just got my first View of the local mountains and WOW, looks like we got a ton of snow !!! I don't know what they look like from the Vegas side, but if I did snow sports I'd be !!!

Jeff, it's been a very l o n g time since I've been to Wendover NV/UT, can't remember the name of the casino... but I played $1 slots and hit for $800 + ... but that was ONCE OH WELL !!!

Jim. groveling could work but what about bribery or liquor ... GOOD LUCK either way !!!

Mat, not much over here either ... the largest employer here is the Social Security Admin. ... The next biggest is a dairy out in Armagossa (sp?) shoveling cow crap ... about the same thing !!! Dave

Some nights I love my job. We had a local woman and her sister on the tables tonight and the fun they were having made the night go by real quick.

The craps position has been filled. But I was told that there may be some positions available latter in the year.

Good night everyone.

Goodmorning Nevada & FTE Friends! .

Well, it's official......IT"S SPRING!!!!
I hope you enjoy your first day of Spring.

Jeff - Congratulations! I hope you get the house you want.
Jim - Been busy packing a few things & moving boxes to storage. We should have the keys to the house today! It's not the house on Cheryl Way. We couldn't qualify for a bank laon, so we found an owner carry further out in Stagecoach. It's a dbl wide - 3 bdrm x 2 bath on 1 acre horse property for $65,000. It's a nice home, but the location isn't the most desirable! I'm trying to get Jimmy to bring the 70 Ford to the house, but we'll probably just leave it at my old house in MoundHouse (where my daughter is living) Still no word on your settlement, huh? I'll keep you posted on where the truck is, so yu know where to pick it up.

Have a great day everyone!

Really hope it stays nice so all the "projects" can get done and so Donna can put those "NEW" house keys to use, then Jeff can follow with his move !!! Everyone, regulars and visitors "Have a great and safe day" ... Dave

Mornin' to you all!

How is everyone doing today? Hopefully doing well!

Well, I'll be busy over the next three days. I was contracted to shoot the MTV Spring Break party over at The Palms. It's going to be nuts. I'm actually shooting for PictureGroup and MTV and their sponsors, so I'm going to be busy trying to cover a TON of stuff, but that's what makes it fun, right?

It's definitely going to be something different and I'm sure I'll get a ton of shots of drunk kids running around the pool area. LOL

I hope you all have a great week!!!

Happy Spring Tuesday! Hope everyone has a great day!

Donna- Wish my luck I won't be worrying about the Ford until sometime next year. So where it is at now is no big deal. If I can get a job, then I will be able to get it sooner, but don't know when that will be. Went to Walgreens today, and finished up the second part of the online app, only to be told by the manager that they currently have a hiring freeze on. However, she did state that it could be lifted at anytime, and that the app will stay on file for 60 days. So there is still some hop.

Jim
