Come crown my brow with leaves of myrtle...I know the tortoise is a turtle.
Come carve my name in Stone immortal...
I know the tortoise is a tortle.
I know, to my despair, I bet on one to beat a hare.
I also know I am now a pauper..
Because if it’s turtly, tortly, torpor.

More here June: Tail Of The DragonJune wrote: 02 Aug 2018, 11:14I found if I started the turn at 40 mph in second gear accelerating through the turn the car tended to accelerate to 70mph by the other end. I thought I would clarify that. It was great fun!

That was a Oklahoma Indian reservation casino. I sure love the casino. We used to go to Las Vegas for two weeks every year during the Christmas and New year holidays. Vegas has nice ski resorts nearby.firsly wrote: 23 Aug 2019, 04:44 Guys, anybody still playing slots here? I saw many posts last year here.
Actually, I prefer online slots to offline ones just because there's no need to go anywhere to find them. And you can play anywhere the internet is. However, I made a long way to finding slots that pay because there are a lot of scamsBut these ones are good. How do you feel?
Online you loose the thrill of being in the casino and the feel of the slot machine imo. June

Volvo gave us the ETM slot machine in 1999 for free
I’ve rolled a 140 on one and a 210 on another, though
Your daughter isn’t allowed in casinos, June, even with those pretty hands.
