greyhound racing had ended in NH!

Good. I'm glad.

My mom lives in Winter Springs. I don't know if it's a county thing or what, but she does say she can't play it down there, so when she comes up here, she's almost obsessed with it, and refuses to go to a restaurant, etc. unless they also have Keno.


As for the casinos up here, I heard the other day that over 5,000 jobs will be created (divided between non-permanent construction and regular casino employment).

I'm not a gambler myself, really. I mean, I had been to the track in NH years ago but only bet $2 each race on about four races.

Have been to Foxwoods once, and didn't even bother spending money in the casino itself, not even to play Bingo. I lurked in the shops, feeding my own addiction...
