    smells like baseball today

    :)

    Nice little 3 mile run today. Bee-you-tee-full.

    5 for me - perfect. 8-)

    Workin' my way back into this shit - it's been a while. Trying to make sure not only can I run the Broad Street, but outdo my time last year, which was awful(I believe it was 1:50).

    Hoping to break 1:20, but got a lot of work to do, and some ell-bee's to take off.

    I hear that. Trying to do 1:40-1:30 this year. If I kept up this whole health thing year-round I would've liked to have been around 1:15. But there's those whole "going-to-Phils-games-3 hours-early-and-tailgating" thing...

    Thats good shit. Too much of a hike for me but I'd love to see that. I rarely do anything for Pattys Day, but it is a Saturday and the woman is bartending at Liberties so I would imagine it's going to be a bit of a shit show.

    Yeah, good reason for me to check out Harrah's down there since I haven't been yet....get the gambling blood flowing again...

    Ah, nice. Yeah, I went by it on the train to Baltimore a few weeks back. Looks big.

    A buddy of mine told me there's a lot of easy money at the poker tables, so that's where I will be for a majority of the time - especially when everyone's shit-canned on St. Patrick's Day.

    Alright, alright, alright!

    Yeah, man. I would imagine that would be a very good time to sit down at a poker table.

    Poker room is pretty good there but if you go at a prime time can be a bit of a wait to get on a table depending on the game you are looking for. it's fairly comfortable though compared to some of the other poker rooms i've been in. i haven't made it there much lately but will get back into it in the spring/summer. upstairs blackjack and slots area is full of train wrecks though and usually fairly crowded unless you go in morning or early afternoon. parking garage isn't huge either so on a day like st. patty's day it might be a pain just to give you a headsup.

    i personally don't like the ideas of all these casinos popping up all over the place.

    the only they are putting in at valley forge reminds me of Biff's from back to the future 2. :roll:

    I have stated my position many times in this thread. I am not a fan of it, at all. I think it's terrible for the city.

    DUDE, I thought the same exact thing. I'll probably find myself there though.

    i really enjoy gambling but i have to agree with you. if all these casino's were in this area when i was in my early 20s...we would have lots of problems. i would have been there after drinking every weekend. it was better when it was AC or Vegas only. At least then you had to make a plan to get there.

    ha...i think it's the cheesy "V Casino" logo at the top of the old convention center that makes me think that.


    yeah since it's so close i am sure i will check it out.

    when i think of a casino, i think of a vacation or at least a sat night trip to ac or something. something about being able to stop off at one of them on my way home from work seems foreign to me. not sure i will get used to that.
