Poker = too trendy

So the entire world seems to know how to play poker. It's on every channel, the 'real' poker players are annoyed that the 'wannabe players' have entered their world and are actually winning money. We're going to Atlantic City this weekend with my Dad and his wife to play Dave's favorite game (mine too), craps. Lots of different bets to make, you don't have to lose your money too quickly (or you can depending on how many bets you make), and all the players at the table are rooting for each other. Generally, when you win, they win. When you lose, they do too. Instant friends. Let's hear it for crazy summer Friday afternoon driving (I think it's going to be a long trip), comped meals (by my Dad, not the casino), and getting out of the hot city for a change. Then again, it's Gay pride weekend which is always one of the most festive weekends, so I'm a bit sad to be missing out on watching the parade.

I also love that there's an actual casino game where you can say "I crapped out". I'm such an immature dork deep down (actually, it's not deep down at all).
