So iam at the mother-in-laws house tonight who i can't stand and i notice on her coffee table a recent piece of mail form Grand Casio Mille Lacs. On the back of this flyer are pictures of recent big money winners with their picture. I notice one of the pictures to be a popular Mille Lacs resort owner. This person hit on a high stake slot. To be tossing money like that at the tribe. Business must be booming.

Uhm,...interesting. Yeah I think that picture should be posted for all to see. If he just won a big jackpot he isn't going to be in need of any business anyhow.

remember gambling is an addiction and no one can be held accountable for what they do. even if they throw everything their family has worked hard to establish. very sad

Yes gambling can be an addiction, but saying that they can't be held accountable to what they do is simply not true. Should we not prosecute drunk drivers who are addicted to alchohol if they kill someone? If someone is addicted to drugs, are they not responsible for what they do while under the influence? Or if they rob and steal to get more money for drugs?

Sad is right, but there is no excuse for becoming addicted in the first place, and having a problem doesn't absolve you from responsibility.

Problem gambler or not, you gotta wonder why a Mille Lacs resort owner would be in the casino.

And they call me a hypocrite. Its not fair to start judging the guy about a gambling addiction. And you can not blame him for becoming addicted if thats the case. Be careful what you say when you start getting into topics like this.

I'm not sure if your post was directed at me or not, but I was not judging wether or not the guy has a gambling addiction. I don't even know who it is.

But as far as any addicition of any sort, it never should absove a person of the actions taken as a result of that addicition. As a recovering addict myself, I can tell you that a person who is addicted to somehting can do some irrational things, but that person should ALWAYS be held responsible for his actions. After all, it is still a choice. AN addict at first made a choice to take the drink, do the drugs, gamble or whatever. Just because it got out of hand doesn't mean he's no longer responsible for that choice.

guys I was having a little fun and was just giving the P.C. answer . Of course a person is responsible for what they do and there shouldn't be any excuses. there should be help if wanted but never excuses. metro

      My name is HANNA HENRY .I want to give thanks to HAKEEM AHMED for bringing back my ex husband.No one could have ever made me believe that the letter I’m about to write would actually one day be written. I was the world’s biggest skeptic. I never believed in magic spells or anything like this, but I was told by a reliable source (a very close co-worker) that Trust is a very dedicated, gifted, and talented person,It was one of the best things I have ever done. My love life was in shambles; I had been through two divorces and was on the brink of a third. I just couldn’t face another divorce, and I wanted to try harder to make our relationship work, but my husband didn’t seem to care. and he broke up with me again . I was confused and did not know what to do again, rather they got in contact with HAKEEM AHMED. He did a love spell that made my husband come back to me. We are now very much happy with ourselves. HAKEEM AHMED makes him realize how much we love and need each other .This man is for REAL and for good . He can also help you to fix your broken relationship. I had my husband back! It was like a miracle! He suddenly wanted to go to marriage counseling, and we’re doing very, very well , in our love life . contact email [email protected] or text or add him up on whatsApp at: +27788392740 his web page http://astrologerastrology.com

      I love pulling lead core but usually don't pull it out until later in the season.  Can you share depth and speed numbers that were working with lead?  Thanks.

      Heading up early Saturday morning. Going to be a short, discombobulated trip this year. Starting with 4 of us but one has to leave to watch his son play in state (WI) baseball tournament on Tuesday. Rest of us are only there until Wednesday. Kind of disappointing but I'm thinking we'll have to make a trip in September as well.    Forecast calls for wind!

      Those are cormorants and they are aggressive fish eaters.  I saw more last weekend than typical on vermilion.  Pretty common  on the east end but I don’t usually see much of any on the west which is where we were.  They eat a lot of fish and surprisingly large fish for their size so they aren’t great for the fish populations.     I can’t believe how fast the water warmed up.  We were seeing up to the high 70’s last weekend.  Typically mid June is mid to upper 60’s.  The Muskies didn’t seem to be too fired up with the quick warm up.  The ones we moved were lazy and would not go in to the turn.  Hopefully some more normal temps this week help.
