Carson City, Nevada : Report Sent to Denver

John Ensign walked into our health club Halloween day where a tight red cyclying uniform. That week I was picking out Super Hero costumes for my son, because he likes to run I planned on buying DC comics hero, The Flash. John Ensign walked into the gym lounge wearing the DC comics crimson red uniform. He is charming beyond politics. Smiled from the front desk to athletes climbing treadmills under a high wall covered with television monitors starring in every show and music video. Extremely young looking, John Ensign is terribly athletic. All the women walked up to the counter to buy coffee at the same time Ensign order his energy drink with blended fruit. The women adored his physic. His cycling suit was skin tight.  My mother commented on how handsome Ensign looked. Sons never forget when their mother comments on another man other than their husband. Vegas is complicated. I have been visiting Las Vegas since I was 7 years old with my mother and father. Both CPA Accountant and Math teacher who liked gaming. I carried a metal boxed bandage can with me. Inbetween the palm of my hands, my dad took a screwdriver and put a coin slot in the top of this metal bandage can. At that time in the Seventies, bandages to cover small cuts and wounds came in a white metal box that snapped open when you slipped the lid. If create right, the cut at the lid make the top resemble a perfect slot for casino chips. The white box turned into a piggy bank box. Poker gamblers, slot machine operators, they slipped casino chips into the box as I followed by parents around the casino. I remember feeling robbed once. My father got low on his own chips, opened the lid to my box, reached in, and stole poker chips. He just helped himself to my cash without asking if he could borrow the money. This sort of set me off as wondering why? What is going on when a father takes money from his child without asking? Welcome to Las Vegas.
