Well, I forgot to do a follow up here. Emo and I finally did get to meet up on Thursday, March 10th at the Mohegan Sun casino. Emo brought one of his fellow classmates (Tim) from the Coast Guard with him and the three of us had a GREAT time at the casino (we didn't gamble which was probably a GOOD thing since it wound up saving me a good deal on money
). I did make one $51.00 bet at the craps table on the way out, a lay against the ten for $50.00 (since the sevens were coming up about every third roll at this particular table :0 ) BUT just my luck, two rolls after I place the bet
TEN HARD TEN, DOWN BEHIND so before I lost any MORE money, I sucked up my $51.00 loss and headed home :blush:
It's always nice to meet a fellow CPer in person, even though we'd never met before, it was like we'd known each other forever, we spent the whole night yakkin' about cigars, CigarPass, etc and had a heck of a lot of fun. The next thing I knew it, it was five hours later and they were calling "last call" at the bar :0
Emo was one of the first people I traded with here back in my novice days of Havanas so he's the one responsbile for sending me down my road of ruin
Emo, it was a pleasure and an honor to meet you in person and if any of you ever get the chance to sit down with Emo, don't pass it up
:thumbs:
We were talking about setting up something in Philly or DC in a few months, we'll keep y'all posted.
