The Vegas Pro


Spent a great afternoon a couple of Sunday's ago in Las Vegas with JD. I was out there for a client conference and had a free afternoon, so Jumpin' Joe the Vegas Pro picked me up at the airport and we headed over to a sports bar/restaurant to watch the final round of the Masters together and do some serious catching up. I think we determined we hadn't seen each other since roughly 1974 or thereabouts.

JD has been in Las Vegas for several years, and after a stint with an internet start-up is back in the gaming business as an Assistant Casino Manager at Caesar's Palace. Works the 8 pm to 3 am shift with Mondays and Tuesdays off, so looks like he has the most important slot.
.
As the attached picture will show, he's still in great shape. Gave up drinking years ago (hey, we have a designated driver when we're in Vegas!) and doesn't eat any red meat. Surely he has a vice somewhere, but other than golf I couldn't find it. He sends his regards to all the AZ brothers and committed to get to our next reunion. Hopefully he'll make it to Colorado later this summer for some mile-hi golf.
