My Mom took me to the casino to gamble with her money. Played video poker and roulette, and very well could have just lit $80 on fire. The casino was my Vietnam. We sit down and order sodas from a machine called "Fairies of the Forest". No intention or idea how to play it. Put in $20. Press a couple buttons. Won $140. I think the laws of physics break down under that ceiling. Like Alice in Wonderland on acid... or would it be more acid?

"Mayday Casino."
My Mom took me to the casino to gamble with her money. Played video poker and roulette, and very well could have just lit $80 on fire. The casino was my Vietnam. We sit down and order sodas from a machine called "Fairies of the Forest". No intention or idea how to play it. Put in $20. Press a couple buttons. Won $140. I think the laws of physics break down under that ceiling. Like Alice in Wonderland on acid... or would it be more acid?
