http://murph4qs.blogspot.com/2014/07/welcome-back.html
On life in Las Vegas, dealing and playing poker, and the inexplicability of it all. Saturday, July 12, 2014. Welcome back to you and to me. I have no idea what caused me to revisit Blogger today, but here we are. I spent a while reading some very old posts when this one jumped out at me. Worked 8 hours tonight. Where have all the E.O.s gone? That was written in January 2005. Just let m say that times have changed and leave it at that. Posted by Wayne Murphy at 1:38 AM. Preparing for Xmas 1897 Style.

On life in Las Vegas, dealing and playing poker, and the inexplicability of it all. Tuesday, August 30, 2005. Words can't describe the feelings. My thoughts are with everyone in the path of the hurricane. Lives lost, jobs lost, homes lost. Looks like all of the casinos in Biloxi will be out of comission for quite awhile. The total devastation is heart breaking. Posted by Wayne Murphy at 11:13 AM. Sunday, August 28, 2005. Rock Star Poker cont. Do I have a cool job? YES, YES, capital letters YES! As usual,...

Murph's Musings: July 2005
http://murph4qs.blogspot.com/2005_07_01_archive.html
On life in Las Vegas, dealing and playing poker, and the inexplicability of it all. Thursday, July 28, 2005. Go West (not so) Young Man. The poker room at work seems to have slowed down considerably. What else could anyone have expected after the poker orgy that just took place. How can I make your poker playing experience better for you? Keep my mouth shut and become the piece of furniture that some players expect the dealer to be. I wonder if I could just wear a earphones? Later in the week there was a...

On life in Las Vegas, dealing and playing poker, and the inexplicability of it all. Friday, October 28, 2005. The black towel and the annoying dealer. I am starting to wonder if I have had a stroke (cerebral accident.what a way to describe a stroke. Of COURSE it was an accident.who would have one on purpose? Hmmmm, maybe I DID have a stroke.

Murph's Musings: Crazy, I say.
http://murph4qs.blogspot.com/2011/06/crazy-i-say.html
On life in Las Vegas, dealing and playing poker, and the inexplicability of it all. Friday, June 17, 2011. Crazy, I say. Not quite. As I have come to find out, a well visit/physical ceases to be a well visit once you mention ANY concerns. The billing department coded their claim to the insurance in such a way that "tobacco use disorder" became the primary reason for the visit. The insurance doesn't pay for "tobacco use disorder" so the doctor's office bills me for $104. I had an interesting night at work...

Today, the national debt is $16,238,560,000,000 That's trillion with a capital T. 51,000 for every man, woman and child in this country. Crazy, I say.

Murph's Musings: A Chip Down Memory Lane
http://murph4qs.blogspot.com/2011/06/chip-down-memory-lane.html
On life in Las Vegas, dealing and playing poker, and the inexplicability of it all. Monday, June 27, 2011. A Chip Down Memory Lane. The 19th annual convention of the Casino Chips and Gaming Tokens Collectors Club. After I bought the chip, Dr. Myers (a legend in chip circles) told a story about a customer who approached his table at the convention. Because it's worth well over $1,000 today. Although very plain in design, I think these chips have character. How I wish I had been here in LV way back whe...
