That's nice to hear.

I grew up in Reno, NV and managed to get pretty close physically to some people that were in various shows at the casinos. BB King for instance did a show in a room not much bigger than the living room of one of the more expensive houses in the Villages.

I took some French classes at the University of Nevada, Reno which were also a magnet for some of the female show dancers from various casinos.

Had one of the weathermen from the local news channels in Reno, Nevada in some of my history classes at UNR.
