Not that much to tell. I was born in Hollywood Fl, moved to Long Isl,NY in 1983. I've been in the truck parts business for over 30 years. I'm in my second marriage (second for both of us, & we made it to over 20 years, so I guess this time we both did something right). Usually, we get to Vegas 1-2 times a year for a week each, and Atlantic City for 1-2 day trips maybe every other month.

A little of everything, & it seems to change often over the years. I've gotten back into the "oldies"; Sinatra, Dean Martin, Bobby Darin, etc. I like county music & rock/"pop" music, but mostly from the 1960's-70's & early '80's. Fortunately, I got away from the dance music (bad back & such). Whenever possible, we'll catch shows by some of the older groups of the 50's-70's & even some tribute acts, like the ones throughout Vegas.

Another list that always changes. At this moment, favorite movies; Casino, original Ocean's 11 (1960), Rounders (see a pattern ?). I'll also watch almost any movie with Clint Eastwood or John Wayne, & some older, little known movies that may appear on Turner Movie Channel, Independent Film Channel, etc.
TV: I finally got into all the different Law & Order series recently, so I guess I have almost 20 years of viewing to catch up. I've probably seen every poker tourney on TV & I follow football as best as my schedule allows. I also like some of the nostalgia documentaries that appear on History Channel, PBS, TV Land, etc.

1988; on our honeymoon in Los Angeles, we found out that Vegas was a 4 hour drive, so off we went for the day. Got to Ceasars about noon, sat at the first blackjack table I saw, & stayed there for 7 hours. Had dinner & back to LA by 2:00AM, so I can't say we saw much of the town.

first, the gambling, but I can go to a lot of cities for that. This is the one city to feel the most freedom. You can do (almost) anything at anytime of the day, & to me, you can still do it at a reasonable price.

Las Vegas (of course)

Poker; I've played small home games for years, but back around 2000, I started to get into live casino poker (2 totally different experiences).

Penny video slots; I know, real bad odds, but I love 'em for the entertainment, & once in awhile I even win something.

Miami Dolphins; I really don't have the time to follow them like when I lived in Florida, but I try to keep up on them.

Open Vegas (of course) & it's related sites (LVOL, A2Z Vegas, etc).
Cheapo Vegas/Big Empire; some of it is little dated, but the site itself is very entertaining.
Allvegaspoker.com; for, of course poker info. Lot of good info in the players' reviews.
DestinationsCoupons; not as many as in the past, but there's usually a few show discount coupons we use.
