take it to the floor now

 

In conversation with a friend a few days ago - we got onto the subject of Las Vegas, and he said gambling isn't as popular with the younger generations as it was with ours and the one before - the Depression era and World War II people.


I thought that was interesting.

He said same way with smoking, not nearly as common for younger people today.


With the Internet and technology, there are more things for people to do, now.  Maybe that's why.


------------------------ Beyonce put out a country song called "Texas Hold 'Em."  You can play it from You Tube--there are many videos.

        There are videos of the song, and there are videos of civilians dancing to the song (check out the Bearded Boomer in a Short titled "So much fun I danced it twice").

        There are even several videos where the song is "on a loop" - it plays over and over, back-to-back, for an hour.  (Who would click on that and listen to the same song over and over for an hour?  Certainly not me....)


🪕 Banjo playing opens the song.  It's good. I think if Pete Seeger heard it he would approve.
