Rumors have it that MGM/Mirage is planning to break ground in A.C. fall of 2003 for a new casino to be built next to the yet to be opened Borgata. Who knows? Just recently they mentioned halting any forward movement because of the New Jersey governor wanting to tax casino comps. Makes one wonder whether the right hand knows what the left hand is doing.

Isn't the Borgata owned by MGM Mirage?

Mike,

I thought it was a joint venture with Boyd Corporation.

Beth,
It seems like they don't know what they want in AC? I know it's absolutely "Not" Vegas.We will see what happens? Glad to be back we had a short memorial at the site and marched out of there on May 30th I feel it was time! I just wish we could have found more folks? We found about 1100 folks the rest will have to be DNA or they will never be found which is very sad.

I can't wait to get to our favorite city! I won't go till it's cooler out there! but as soon as it starts to look nice in the weather department I'll book it.I'm definetly going Thanksgiving!I would like to go in Sept.if it's nice then hope to see you all there then.I haven't been anywhere for quite awhile.Looking forward to visiting PA.next week.Talk to you all soon.Best whishes to all.

Bob,

A.C. is a good place for a "quick fix" between LV visits. But, nothing tops Las Vegas.

It's really nice to find a post from you once again. Missed you here, but know that other events were much more important than a Las Vegas bb. There's no way I could ever understand what you've gone thru at Ground Zero.

We're really looking forward to seeing you in LV once again in November. Did you get a good rate for airfare, or still lookin'? We have yet to find one.

Once again, great to have you back!

Ditto - see ya at the meet Thanksgiving. Wendell

Beth,
Thanks nice to be back! Not much luck on good airfare yet? They had some fares but only good till the end of July?? I'll keep looking.See you in town Thanksgiving hopefully.

Wendell,
Thanks glad to be back and can't wait for Thanksgiving! Hope to see you all then.

Yes, Boyd is a partner in the Borgata. Funny thing, most of the Boyd people I talked to where quick to point out that Boyd was opening a NJ casino. I had to let them down easy and explain AC to them. Untill things change (if ever) it will be just mostly for day trippers and weekends. And the fact they (LV) won't be loosing any of my business to the NJ property! LOL

Bob G,
I hope you can make a LV trip. After what you've just gone through, you deserve a break from reality. You know, the mind needs a vacation sometimes more then the body!
