OMG another Casino!

Now here is a thing we really need Another Damn Casino. To quote from the article "Fallon's going to have its day really soon. Fallon has amazing things, too. Our Naval base is a big cookie." I have asked around about why there are no strip bars or any “Adult Entertainment” The answer I got was that it is not allowed in the city limits and there is some kind of county ordinance against it. Well if they want some of the military income a casino is not the way to do it as I have seen maybe one good looking cocktail waitress. The sailors that come here for training get a few weekends off and I doubt they are going to local casino’s. From listening to talk in the galley they are looking for other entertainment. I over heard a couple of them talking about going to the “Bunny Ranch” but said they were not paying a months salary for 1 hour with any woman no matter how good she looked. I found that rather funny as the guy who said it had a wedding ring on so he already is paying a months salary for his entertainment. I guess the focus is in a different direction. I doubt that all the new housing they are building that is above the ability of a sailor to buy is one of their way of using the Navy base as an asset. I guess I cannot blame them as the housing here is cheaper than some of the other areas and they want their piece of the Retired movement pie. Well such is life.
