Hurrah For Harrah's/Loved the Last 'Lost' 

By Kaedy Kiely

Whew, what a blast at Harrah's in Tunica!  We had a terrific group of River listeners aboard our Airtran flight and everyone seemed to have a great time.  The flight was a hop, skip and a jump away, so we were there before you know it.  The rooms at Harrah's were spacious and nice -- very comfortable for the minimal amount of time I spend in a casino's hotel room!;)  One of the things I really like about Harrah's casino was that they have a keypad on your slot machine that lets you place your drink order, then a server shows up with your order in minutes!  My mom hit a jackpot on one of the video poker machines and the attendant came out to pay her with a cute, gaudy necklace that has "JACKPOT WINNER" on it and gave her a big hug -- never had that happen in a casino before --sweet!  Paula Dean's buffet was sinfully delicious -- I always love the all-you-can-eat-crab legs at casino buffets.  I didn't win, but the weekend was definitely a winner!  Check out the great packages available with Airtran Airways and Harrah's for a fun time.

I couldn't sleep last night for the ending of Lost -- I thought it was brilliant, and beautifully done!  I was running it over and over in my mind.  As soon as I thought I had it figured out to a T, I thought about Claire having a baby again in the sideways storyline, and since she and the baby were both "dead" at the end, did Aaron actually ever exist with Kate raising him?! The scene at the end with Jack and the dog -- just amazing... full circle to the pilot episode.

I also love "The Apprentice" and TiVoed last night's finale to watch today.  I was hoping to keep away from the news of who won this morning but, of course, my overnight news show that I watch while getting ready to go to work spoiled it for me!!!  I won't tell you if you haven't had a chance to watch it yet.

All in all a great, eventful, lack of sleep-filled weekend!
