The Sad State of Caesars Entertainment’s Harrahs Resort in Atlantic City, NJ

Spent the weekend in Atlantic City at Harrah’s Casino/Resort. We got a room at the Harrah’s Marina building. Everything was expensive. The room looked like a bad motel 6.

Here are some of the atrocities.

Hunk of hair weave hair on the floor of our hotel room.  So obviously lazy vacuuming.

The carpet was stained and discolored in so many places, walking around in your bare feet was a disgusting thought. I know what a vomited wine stain looks like. There was a lot of that all over the place

The furniture looked like it had not been replaced since the 80’s. The stains on the furniture were so nasty looking, we put towels on the furniture before we sat on it.

Stain on chair.  Looks like someone had to pee really bad.

Even the pictures had stains on the glass framing. So it looks like they cant even spray some windex and wipe down the pictures.

Even the pictures haven't been wiped down.

Here is the view from the window in the room. You can look out over Atlantic City, NJ and see Hotel/Casino’s that are closed (out of business) and other Hotel/Casino’s where they may actually properly clean their rooms.

Apartment Living in The DC Metro Area Part 3

A lovely posting on the community social network. This is funny. I could see this turning into a total catty pompous ‘bitch-off’. I can see it now, “OH MAH GOD! SOMEONE HAS LEFT DOG DOODY UNDER THE DOOR HANDLE OF MAH BOYFRIENDS BEEEMER..”

You live in a MFDU (multi family dwelling unit). You dont like it, go to them and address them about it. Dont passively bitch on the posting board. Can we get more juvenile? I have a problem with the halls being loud, I email the management and they send out a neighborhood reminder. This person is going ass kicking personal.

This is fun! 🙂

Apartment Living in The DC Metro Area Part 1

I sent this email to building management this morning:

SUBJECT: Hallway etiquette, or How can we say this nicely?

Since I have been living here at Avalon at Grosvenor Station, I have noticed some behavior in the hallways that seems to be acceptable and I do not understand how this is reasonable:

1. Every weekday morning (6:50am) and evening (4:30pm) it is apparently ok to let your kids run screaming, yelling, chanting or stomping as loudly as possible in the hallways. This is similar to releasing your hyper children into a McDonalds play place. So apparently the halls of Avalon Grosvenor are a place to allow your kids to have a discipline free LOUD wild run in the hallway EVERY WORKDAY.

2. Apparently if the weather is not the best, it is okay to turn the hallway into an exercise yard for your dogs. I guess its okay (and even comical) to let them run up and down the hallway with no leash at top speed chasing each other like it’s a grey hound track.

I had no idea that this was accepted as common courtesy in a shared apartment complex hallway.

Next time, if I come home drunk early in the morning or at any odd hour, I’ll be sure to hire a brass band to march down the hallway and play loudly OR I will allow my cat to use the hallway as a litter box.

I realize that this negligence of others is accepted behavior in Montgomery county and the DC metro area (as I had the unfortunate pleasure of living in this area before and I realize coming back here is not a step up in quality of life). I have grown to consider that, in this area, one cannot expect other people (especially strangers) to be considerate of others. If that was the case, the traffic around here wouldn’t suck so bad.

Do you think I’m out of line by expecting anything different for a common use hallway?

Welcome to the MTA: Please Mind the Gap

I love New York. Specifically, I love the New York Subway System! The MTA is a combination transportation system, multicultural carnival and general Thunderdome of shit, specifically designed to test your person-hood and your patience at every turn by bombarding you with pure bullshit.

Speaking of bullshit, we turn to our video clip, where we see a patron of the Subway, barely dressed, as a bumblebee, Folks, I’ve been to 3 State Fairs, a Goat Rodeo and several overseas brothels and I must say that I’ve NEVER…. EVER seen anything that compares to this.

He’s good. He’s doing kicks. He dips and dances and moves like a pro. It looks like he spends most of his time onstage doing drag. He can also carry a tune: doing his own rendition of LMFAO’s “I’m Sexy And I Know It”. He gyrates. He booty pops for the crowd. They love him. They are his people. Absolutely mesmerizing, eh? In that costume all I can think of is that old-school subway warning: “Please Mind The Gap”

Now before any more vomit builds up in my throat, it’s been suggested the guy is high out of his mind. I can’t really speculate what drugs he may be on, if any at all. Perhaps we should ask the little EIGHT YEAR OLD CHILD who’s getting a fucking eyeful right there in his front row seat to this shit spectacle. Maybe that kid saw him do some drugs. Maybe not. Either way, …he’s sexy and he knows it.




The NFL Can Suck It! BOYCOTT!

The Way We Were…

i voted rich

Let’s see where we are now….   A whole new congress under new republican power.

Let us now review where we were 6 years ago (2008) (according to Independent Senator from Vermont Bernie Sanders):

  1. Healthcare only for the rich
  2. Two wars going on (losing combat troops every week).
  3. More people living in poverty than anytime in American history.
  4. More wealth inequality.
  5. Financial system on verge of collapse.
  6. Losing 700,000 jobs a month
  7. 1.4 Trillion dollar deficit (the largest in history).

What the new republican congress will do:

  1. Go after social security (privatize).
  2. Go after Medicare (de-fund).
  3. Major cuts in federal education aid.
  4. Major cuts in nutrition aid.
  5. Major cuts in environmental protection.
  6. Huge tax breaks for the wealthy and large corporations.

What a wonderful world to look forward to.   Go ahead, ask me why I shorten my life by smoking!
