It's freezing. Nothing to do.
Today is a good day to go to Atlantic City.

I am assuming AC's Boardwalk is finally fixed? Didn't Sandy break it? I used to go there a lot when there were bus day trips there. But no more trips. Great deal..about $40 for the round trip. and with that you got a meal voucher and a roll of quarters. I remember a trip I took there was a younger couple on board (in their mid 20's). Both recently out of school, married a couple years. Not a lot of money...they would go once every 2-3 months, use the lunch tickets, and the quarters at the casino, then spend the rest of the time on the beach or just walking the boardwalk. Cheap vacation for them

We went to the Borgata. No boardwalk there. If it weren't as cold as it was, ugh, and still is, we would have swung around by the Showboat and checked out the boardwalk and other damages. I'm sure they have a lot rebuilt or in the process of rebuilding. All the casinos are open though.

I'm $50 up! I was on a hot streak at the blackjack table and the shoe changed. The girl next to me cut the deck and ALL the high cards came out in the beginning of the shoe. Lost 4 hands in a row and walked away. Wont' ride out a bad deck.
Ha! The dealer made fun of me too for standing on a 14. "You're going to stand on a 14 when I have a picture card showing?"
"Yes I am. You could have a two under there."
She had a three. Had to draw. She drew a 10. I win.

Never hit if you can be beaten by a 10. Plus I knew all the high cards were out already.

So we went to Artie Lange's show again. Got VIP access and this time it was awesome. Borgata's green room is great and there was a spread for a king. We didn't eat but I gobbled up half a bottle of the wine
Sadly it was the early show. We would have been able to hang out with all the other comedians if Matt's new helper wasn't starting tomorrow. Little bastard was supposed to start last week but he was too chicken to give his two weeks notice and needed a week to grow a pair of balls to do it. He was going to take the day off today and we were going to stay over.

We decided we don't like the Borgata. Small casino. All hype.
Ate at Fatburger downstairs because we didn't want to eat "fancy". We didn't have time anyway. I don't know what all the rage is for this chain's burgers because they suck. 5 Guys is much, much better.
