If you check the appropriate pages of http://www.TheRenoGambler.com you will find updates to the below listed information. At least until sometime in June when I have to pay up to keep the website or?



WARMER WEATHER

Just in time for Mother's Day. And Happy Mother's Day to all the mom's! It is finally getting warmer, and to me it seems like it has been winter time forever. So I am welcoming the birds and the bees and the flowers. I never planned on being physically disabled to the point that it would take a lot of the joy out of casino activities, but my previous employer left me with such a sour taste in my mouth, it is hard to resume where I left off, and with the enthusiasm I once felt for Reno and it's casinos. But I know that the places I mention are above that level I worked for and with. So I am going to continue to promote the Reno casinos until I figure out how to move and to where. I just happened to lose a whole lot of respect for a whole lot of people in this state and in the casino where I was previously employed and it has cost me a whole lot because I once believed in a whole lot of things.
