Re: Uncasville CT

So CDIII and I decided to take a short trip up to Mohegan Sun this weekend, and enjoyed some Lone Palm Ales, margaritas, a cheeseburger, some fish tacos, and volcano nachos at the new Margaritaville :D The new Casino of the Wind is beautiful and we really enjoyed M'Ville! It's nice to finally have ...

Re: Programmable Thermostats

Thanks for all your input. Since we are gone from the house from 7 Am until at least late afternoon, the feedback that I am getting is that a programmable thermostat would definately help out fuel costs and allow us to be comfortable when we get home. I'm going to go for a mid-priced unit from a rep...

Good question. I think it's a little different to everyone. Sort of like, "Where is Margaritaville"... For me, I think it's just the fact that his songs do nothing more then make people happy. Whever the weather is bad or I am in a crappy mood at work or whatever. I can put a little Jimmy...

I love the fact that he plays to the fans. Shunned by traditional radio (although I did hear "Boat Drinks" the other day on a terrestrial station), he has performed and recorded his way and, I believe, always tried to keep the fans first. As an example, it would have been very easy for him...

Christmas shopping just got a little easier. I bought this set a couple of years ago (at a much higher price) and love it, particularly with the way the discs are arranged by theme.

I was also fortunate to win tickets on WEBE 108, a Southwestern CT radio station. :D I was told the same thing by the radio station, that there would be no tickets, but rather that my name would be on the guest list at the door to Margaritaville. A high roller friend of mine tried to get tickets and...

I clicked. I forwarded. It was awesome. My oldest son is on the Austism Spectrum. Thankfully, he is high functioning and most people, outside of family, would not notice or would write off the peculiarities that make up this complex child. His autistic disorder is a part of him, just like his blond ...

Mohegan Sun Ticket Prices

One of the big issues with tickets at Mohegan Sun Arena is the ability to pay for tickets with comp points from gambling. Mohegan has to pay Jimmy, but with many tickets going to people with points, they have less cash coming in to the box office. They would rather have people use points for high ma...
