I found the archive.
You were supposed to feed me, clothe me and bring me jewelry...

Here's another story for you all :

Right before I left, Mike Petty emailed me asking if I needed the new Harrah's Mardi Gras beads (Of COURSE I did).

Then, he emailed again, asking I wanted some dice, cards, trinkets, etc. (and of COURSE I did )

Well I think he works for Harrah's - Council Bluffs - because he emailed AGAIN - asking if I wanted one of the new Total Rewards polo shirts (of COURSE I did )

At this point, I emailed back and told him...
"Hey - you might as well bring me a bagel.
That way I can email my mother and tell her there was a man in Las Vegas who would 'feed me, clothe me AND bring me jewelry".

The scan pretty much says it all

Hey Mike... sorry I missed you
My mom wants to take you to dinner

Thanks for a huge grin and great memory!
