b1-66er: WARNING: If any of the Math Military have aneurysms, this is the article that's likely to make them burst...
Major Math: 👍 to " https://www.reviewjournal.com/business/casinos-gam… "
b1: OH THANK GOD.
You're still alive.
MM: For now
b1: Hey.
We're all playing the long game and losing...
... But we understood that when we entered The Carnival.
MM: I'm winning. I truly enjoy the gambling world. I'm fully aware that I am being charged, but I get booze, hotels, some privileges, flights (Borgata is flying us out for free next week...just a $50 admin fee that they give back in free play; direct flight, ground, hotel, and $200 in free play for nothing)
b1: You are winning.
MM: If we lose $1,000, we are easily ahead on that given air and hotel prices, not to mention that you literally can't fly to AC from Columbus.
(On commercial)

b1: That's funny.
The Accomplice: I love the perks world. Hotels.com just changed their system after giving us many free rooms over the years. Now they'll give us nickel and dime credits on the fly, I think? I'm in their highest tier, and waiting to see what happens
MArchie (grad-school friend) and I embark this afternoon in Vancouver... Looking forward to Alaska!
Royal Caribbean perks are funny at this middle tier... I think(!) we can have robes for free to use on the ship... if we ask?!?...
b1: The Accomplice was high enough up the hotels chain that she's the only person I've ever seen referred to as
My leige
... In corporate correspondence.
TA: .... And in my next cruise or two, I'll earn... A PIN!
b1: On the Princess line I believe that's what's referred to as
The Grovel Tier
TA: That takes me back to the pre-Title IX days, when the high school girls earned a "GAA" brooch (girls athletic association). After Title IX, (mid-high school for me), we started earning letters.
b1: I'll buy you a sweater when you get back if your feathers are still ruffled.
You will have to say 'please' of course.
TA: Maybe you can bring me a robe... IF I ASK.
b1: That's funny.
Your mood is perfectly set for this voyage.
TA: I'm all over it! I haven't found an ice carving display yet, but I'm set on digging out the film choices, naturalist lectures, and happy hours. Tonight's entertainment is a comedian.
Massage pre-booked for 3pm, before the ship sails.¹
¹ This is the most cruise aware TXT the KTXT staff has ever seen.
