Atlantic City slideshow & sideshow; Mega-Jottings

Caesars Strip-tease; Slot flea swatted; Biden targets resort fees

Killing spree on Strip; Tilman’s newest erection revealed
Alas, today’s top story is of the “If it bleeds, it leads” variety and is written out of sheer necessity, not desire. A thirty-something Latino man, Yoni Barrios, is in custody after going on a knife-wielding spree in front of … Continue reading
