I enjoy going to Wendover, Nevada, the cut-rate gambling den that has daily buses from the Salt Lake area. I generally come back with as much money as I went out with. I'm pretty good at $5 blackjack.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sad now. Nut shot guy got banned from IO9 for trolling, so I may never hear the truths straight from his keyboard...
Quick, send him here!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
OK, Lee! Although the next time I'm going is in August with my usual group of women, and the flights are looking really expensive, which puts a definite damper on my desire to go to Vegas all the time. :(
I do not know this show. Is that the new thing-- Broadway to TeeVee?
Yes. Although Smash is actually about Broadway, and all the Broadway stars have the non-performer roles, which is weird. But it really is a ton of Broadway people.
Also, Audra McDonald was on Private Practice for years.

Because books.
Lee, gambling queen! I'm too chicken to play for long. Especially long enough to win anything but my money back.
Sophia, I could have sworn you were watching Smash. I think you'd like it, although it does get soapy more often than not.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I don't have audio at work--is this really a fridge magnet that orders you a pizza? Why is it in a different country????

Because books.
Link? Damn, you are quick to edit.

I LOVE soaps (or loved-- mine are sadly gone)-- I had forgotten about Smash, though.

The pizza magnet is apparently totally real, but only in Dubai. That's sort of awesome.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
Where's my pizza magnet? Unjust, I tell you.

I remember hearing about this when it launched on some gadget blog or maybe a podcast. The conclusion drawn by the author was that it was a cool concept but wouldn't actually save you any time compared to just saving the pizza place's number in your phone.
