Obviously, everybody and everything, is consistently being watched inside a casino (security guards watching their camera's monitoring)! LOL.

Congratulations on the HUGE casino win though

LOL. Catholicism has never taught that all their departed, Catholics become Saints. That's a much more rigorous requirements term.

Indeed, some scientists and other people believe that there are possibly 9+ parallel, simultaneous slightly different universes.

I agree. Parallel Universe reminds me of the dragonfly story.

The

Dragonfly

Once, in a little pond, in the muddy water under

the lily pads,

there lived a little water beetle in a community of

water

beetles. They lived a simple and comfortable life in the pond

with

few disturbances and interruptions.

Once in a while, sadness would come to the community when one of

their fellow beetles would climb the stem of a

lily pad and

would never be seen again.... [ More ]

I have a lot of respect for the departed. As Catholics we call them Saints. You can always call on them. The Chinese, with their thousands year of history, has ancestor worship. I believe in that too. I believe they are in a place where they are watching over us.

Some scientists believe in a parallel universe. They say nothing in this world is actually destroyed but actually just moves in and out of a parallel universe.

He must love his job if he wants to keep working at 73.

God bless him and his wife.

A Michigan man went to Mississippi for a friend's funeral last week, and came back a multimillionaire.

Tyler Morris, 73, drove with his wife to attend the funeral of his longtime friend Max Anderson, 86, on Feb. 15, and stopped by one of Anderson's favorite hangouts afterward: The Palace Casino Resort in Biloxi, Miss. He decided to play penny slots in honor of Anderson, who had often gone with Morris to the casino over the years, and always played the slots.

Morris put his money on The Lor... [ More ]
