Oh boy! What a can of worms I've opened up now!

Oh boy! Aren't you the daredevil?

Now the "only VP" contingent can be enthralled by yet another discussion on
the subject of tipping (for the sixteenth time). But since Tom's runnin' low
on storage, let me do the whole thread and save time and space.

"You are a cheap SOB. Have you no compassion for the working poor?" (repeat
five times).

"Right on brother. Why should I give away my whole expected win because those
cheap casino managers refuse to pay their help a decent wage." (repeat six
times).

"Big deal. Why should these change people make more than teachers?" (repeat
once).

"I knew this sort of thing would happen once the Republicans took control."
(repeat twice).

"If you took CAT bus number 19 and transferred to the number 23 at Flamingo
instead of driving to the casino, you would have enough to tip the attendent
and save the environment as well." (One time).

Hey Chief:

Oh boy! Aren't you the daredevil?

Gettin' bold in my old age!

Now the "only VP" contingent can be enthralled by yet another

discussion on

the subject of tipping (for the sixteenth time). But since Tom's

runnin' low

on storage, let me do the whole thread and save time and space.

"You are a cheap SOB. Have you no compassion for the working poor?"

(repeat

five times).

I know, I know! I've heard it more than five times.

"Right on brother. Why should I give away my whole expected win

because those

cheap casino managers refuse to pay their help a decent wage."

(repeat six

times).

There ya go. Those casino suits are making so much more money now
that they've cut back on the paytables and comps. They can afford to
give the help a half a buck an hour raise.

"If you took CAT bus number 19 and transferred to the number 23 at

Flamingo

instead of driving to the casino, you would have enough to tip the

attendent

and save the environment as well." (One time).

Don't confuse the readers! You take the 301 bus to Flamingo, then
transfer to the 202. But then, if you take the bus, you're stuck with
the dilemma of whether or not to tip the driver for giving you your
transfer ticket, thus spending the money you hoped to pay the
attendant.

Ooops. It's the 204 that runs along Flamingo.

Time for my medication.
