I did my good deed for the day

Of course I have a ulterior motive behind my good deed though. If I take canned goods to my local casino, they will give me $5 to play with. 5 cans is the maximum for $25 to play on. The canned goods are for the local food bank. Even though people aren’t losing jobs here as much as they are in other places, people are still affected. I used the barcode scanners at my local grocery store to pay for the cans. Now I’m on my way to try and win a few extra dollars.

I guess I’m testing out that no good deed goes rewarded theory. I just hope it’s right.

Presque Isle Casino sucks!

We went to the casino in Erie called Presque Isle. We were just driving around and didn’t have anything to do. John was showing me the showing me the short cut that he uses to get to NJ so we were all the way in Clarion County. Then he asked if I wanted to go to the casino and I said sure. So we headed over to Erie since I had never been there.

It sucked big time. The casino was small and very smoky. We both played several machines and had no luck. Every machine just sucked money down, they weren’t paying off at all. I didn’t see anyone really hitting on their machine. Even John (who gambles $20 max) said he wished we had gone to Wheeling instead.

My first trip to Presque Isle was probably my last!

Casinos need bigger no smoking areas

I don’t think the whole casino should be non-smoking. Although it would be in a perfect world. However, they designate this tiny section of the casino for non-smoking. I was only there for 2 1/2 hours and I reek of cigarette smoke. I’ll have to shower and wash my hair before I go to bed. I also had to hang my clothes to get the smell out. My poor coat is just done right now. I’m not really worrying about that though because I’m taking it to the cleaners next week.
