I spend some time at casinos, looking at the people. What I am looking for is someone that actually looks HAPPY, but I don't see that. Instead, I see people intently staring at the slots, or whatever game they are playing, and they are not even smiling. I can't recall a single exception, but then, I never did catch anyone in the process of winning anything.

So, it costs me nothing to spend a few minutes in a casino, except for sometimes I enjoy a meal there, and that has always been excellent, and reasonably priced.

What gambling in a casino is, is a tax on people who do not understand mathematics. After all, we do owe the Natives something!
