Issue #266
weekly
Dear Reader,
If I seem a bit slower this week than the usual slow, it's because I was home alone with my boy for most of the week. My wife and little girl took off for a few days to go visit family, and it was just us guys hanging around the house. So instead of a lot of Casinomeister stuff to deal with, I helped build snowmen, walked through spooky haunted forests, and fought vampire aliens. It's been a pretty tough week.
Adventurously yours,
Bryan

But what is disturbing to me is they did this in spite of their licensing jurisdiction's condemnation of the 2004 Summer Olympic incident.
From the Kahnawake Gaming Commission's news section:
http://www.kahnawake.com/gamingcommission/
In the past two weeks, the Kahnawake Gaming Commission (KGC) has received numerous complaints concerning an incident at the Olympic Games in Athens involving a person who ‘streaked’ an event displaying the name of one of the KGC’s permit holders: Golden Palace.
The KGC did not approve or condone the incident in question and does not approve or condone this type of ‘marketing’ by its permit holders.
After investigating the Athens incident and meeting with representatives of Golden Palace, the KGC has directed that:
1. Golden Palace will not use, promote, encourage or fund this type of ‘marketing’ ever again, and
2. Given the seriousness of the incident and the negative effect it has had on the community’s reputation, Golden Palace will make a substantial donation to Kahnawake organizations to be identified by the Mohawk Council of Kahnawake.
The KGC is satisfied with Golden Palace’s cooperation throughout and considers the matter closed.
For further information, contact the Kahnawake Gaming Commission at 450-635-1076.
Mohawk Territory of Kahnawake 3 September, 2004
How embarrassing for the Kahnawake Gaming Commission - I guess Golden Palace couldn't care less of what their licensing jurisdiction thinks. Doesn't say much for Golden Palace or the Kahnawake Gaming Commission. I've asked the Kahnawake Gaming commission if they are planning to address this. But apparently they don't feel the need to answer my emails. What a shame.
You can check out the mumblings about this in our forum here: http://www.casinomeister.com/forums/online-casinos/11311-more-golden-palace-stoopid.html

You can either listen to the audio or read the transcripts - but I discus just about everything that concerns Casinomeister - it's origins, my background, choice experiences. So take a few minutes out of your busy day and check me out.
From Gaputernut:
My daughter (15 yrs old) has been accepted to go to UK and Ireland next summer for a People to People ambassador program, (for more info go to http://www.studentambassadors.org/).
She was nominated by her teachers, and was accepted after an interview process and references from other teachers, she had to prove she would be a good ambassador. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity for her, but the Tuition and costs are high, so we have put together a website to help raise money.
If you have a business and would like to have a link on another site, we are selling link space. Each block (75x50) is $5.00, for each block you buy we will post your banner. For example: if you would like a 150x150 banner posted, donate $30.00 and we will put your banner and link on the site. We also have an updates page where we will put a link to your site in the update.
We have already gotten a donation, so you can see an example at http://www.ukandirelanddream.com/
If you do not have a website but still want to donate, please do...we will post your name.
Once you have made the donation please forward us the email you receive from paypal (or a confirmation number) and your banner and link and we will have it posted within 2 days.

HOW TO SING THE BLUES
1. Most blues begin "woke up this morning."
2. "I got a good woman" is a bad way to begin the blues, unless
you stick something nasty in the next line. Like:
"I got a good woman -- with the meanest dog in town."
3. Blues are simple. After you have the first line right, repeat
it. Then find something that rhymes. Like:
Got a good woman
with the meanest dog in town.
He got teeth like Margaret Thatcher
and he weighs `bout 500 pounds.
4. The blues are not about limitless choice.
5. Blues cars are Chevies and Cadillacs. Other acceptable
blues transportation is Greyhound bus or a southbound train.
Walkin' plays a major part in the blues lifestyle. So does
fixin' to die.
6. Teenagers can't sing the blues. Adults sing the blues. Blues
adulthood means old enough to get the electric chair if you
shoot a man in Memphis.
7. You can have the blues in New York City, but not in
Brooklyn or Queens. Hard times in Vermont or North Dakota are
just a depression. Chicago, St. Louis and Kansas City are still
the best places to have the blues.
8. The following colors do not belong in the blues:
a. Violet
b. Beige
c. Mauve
9. You can't have the blues in an office or a shopping mall.
10. Good places for the Blues:
a. The highway
b. The jailhouse
c. The empty bed
Bad places:
a. Ashrams
b. Gallery openings
c. Weekend in the Hamptons
11. No one will believe it's the blues if you wear a suit,
unless you happen to be an old black man.
12. Do you have the right to sing the blues? Yes, if:
a. Your first name is a southern state--like Georgia
b. You're blind
c. You shot a man in Memphis.
d. You can't be satisfied.
No, if:
a. You were once blind but now can see.
b. You're deaf
c. You have a trust fund.
13. Neither Julio Iglesias nor Barbara Streisand can sing the
blues.
14. If you ask for water and baby gives you gasoline, it's the
blues.
Other blues beverages are:
a. Wine
b. Irish whiskey
c. Muddy water
Blues beverages are NOT:
a. Any mixed drink
b. Any wine kosher for Passover
c. Fruit smoothies (all flavors)
15. If it occurs in a cheap motel or a shotgun shack, it's
blues death. Stabbed in the back by a jealous lover is a blues
way to die. So is the electric chair, substance abuse, or being
denied treatment in an emergency room.
It is not a blues death, if you die during a liposuction
treatment.
