On Karaoke, Asian crazies and Bond18

EdmondDantes Yesterday I was chatting with Bond18 on AIM and confirmed that he and BondGirl will, in fact, make the trek to Fresno to visit this weekend. We've no specific plans for the travelers, but we'll do our best to refresh them with amenities and Club One hospitality (aka cheap liquor and hotties). We've identified a good Korean restaurant, doubled our weekly liquor order and upped our liability coverage. I think we're ready.

In and of itself Bond's trip should yield a noteworthy post, but I'm even more encouraged by a message I received on my voicemail this a.m. In the small cardroom world, an overnight voicemail could be staff seeking guidance on fixing an overworked piece of HVAC equipment, directions for making a proper mojito or counsel on posting bail for an overzealous employee. Today, it was a message which sounded like an Asian man being savagely tortured.

I listened carefully for clues to the source, but after a minute and a half of disturbing howls and shrieks, the message abruptly cut off with an Asian woman's voice, "Hello? Hello? Oh my god! Oh my god!" and the caller then hung up. Any other casino exec would immediately notify either the FBI to advise of this kidnapping plot, but I quickly realized that, in truth, our new karaoke equipment has arrived and was being "tested" by our capable staff. I made a mental note to provide keypad lock training for our hostesses and tripled the liquor order.

This weekend obviously has the potential to comp up vs. the prior period. I'll keep you posted.
