Where in the World is that Fat Bastard, Dave?

Well. kiddies, today Dave is in New Orleans, LA. The historic Wyndham Whitney Hotel downtown on Poydras Street has kindly put me up in a very nice junior suite. The hotel is only a few blocks from the French Quarter, a place I stay away from as I know that I would show up on the internet flashing my boobs for beads. Oh, wait, Mardi Gras is over. Well, it's still not a good place to be, for a dignified, aged person like myself.

Instead, I walked the four blocks to Harrah's Casino and, over the course of the evening, hammered them for $1,018.75. Not bad for an amateur.

It is now 11:00pm and the weather forecast is dark, with continued dark until morning when there will be light unless God has decided to wind up this whole experiment and go bowling. See you when I get back to less dark and humid climes.

Hey there, Fat Dave. You're gonna have to time your New Orleans visits a little better. Missed Mardi Gras. Maybe next year. Now don't spend all those winnings in one place.

Lucky you!

I adore New Orleans. I may be one of the few.

I'd lose a grand if I was at the tables. I suck at gambling.

E. Craig, I would rather preside over a prison riot than be in NO at Mardis Gras. The riot would be more dignified.

Midleah, I love NO, just not the Frech Quarter at night. It's a beautiful city.

Sushiboy, I only do the kind of gambling where you put money in the machine, hit a button, then repeat as necessary. Believe me, I lose more than I win overall but it's just entertainment as I don't lose much.

Bless your Hoosier heart. Thank you. And I am fat but I have learned to live with it.
