richy, I was talking about a slew of speakers. Maybe they were some of those asshole Canadians you mentioned.

You really thought the Mustang Ranch was a horse farm?!?!?!
In Nevada, that was a no brainer. I imagine you could have rode the occupants of that ranch easier than swinging up on a four legged one.

Vegas is more of a den of iniquity than Reno, but I wouldn't want to live in either one. I lived in Carson City, and worked for a year at Circus-Circus while kicking around the country after our business was sold. Because of a college degree, and earlier volunteer work in law enforcement, I was hired as a "suit" in security. After that, it was time to move on to another adventure.

Overly religious folks take stands against certain things that have been labeled as sins by human beings, and are not even mentioned in the bible. Gambling is not mentioned as a sin in the bible, nor is smoking tobacco which did not exist in the area covered by the bible at the time. Even having a drink, or two, is not mentioned as a sin in the bible. To drink to drunkeness, or gamble to the extent that a family goes hungry, is over indulgence, and is considered sinful. What the hell! There are more sinners than saints anyway, and many of them are in the front pews on Sunday mornings.

I don't like any large city, and am just biding time until I can get to the mountains away from too much civilization.

Some of your comments seem to come out of left field, so it is reasonable to consider the idea that they are not of your making.
