wow every friday! That's wild...I see where all the money I lost goes too. We stayed at the Beau Rivage. It was pretty nice. I noticed that all them casino's are right on the water. Is it possible the bottom floor is going to be flooded in some of them? Oh and Boom Town looked like it was right over the water.

Actually, they are all ON the water. They're barges!! Mississippi's version of "dockside gambling". Only thing on land is the parking garages and hotels.

...and it (Treasure Bay) broke all its moorings in a mid-level tropical storm a couple of years ago and almost floated away!! Cat 4 or 5 on Biloxi would virtually - if not completely - destroy them all. Even with just the higher tide we're experiencing right now, I can gurantee they are having problems as we speak, er, type.
