[Doughnutchef]

[highheadjester]

awesome vid!!!  Even tho I love ya... these fives stars are for Mom and Dad!!

[Blinkazoid]

Thanks HHJ! And Mom and Dad thanks you too:) I'm not finished with the videos from this trip by a long shot. I've just had too many garden vids to film and edit to have time to edit the rest of this footage. Mom and Dad will be making further appearances on this set of vacation vids.

[Pimporly]

that looks like fun!!!

[Blinkazoid]

It was a nice trip even though I didn't win anything. I've got other trip footage to post but haven't gotten around to it yet because of all the garden vids I've been doing.

[BasicModelling]

Nice to see the Senior Zoids, by the way.. :) All the best to them..

[Blinkazoid]

Thanks for the good wishes Rob! You'll see a bit more of them before I finish posting all these vacation vids.

[BasicModelling]

I realised that I saw a Pt.2, which mean that there must be a Pt.1.. and lo and behodl, here it is.. :) I used to olove mayo on sandwiches, but not so much these days.. I can't really find a nice mayo over here, nor a decent ketchup.. or else my tastebuds have changed.. regardless of what, I don't eat much of the stuff now.. :)

I half expected that blue cover to take off at some point! I hope they had the contents insured.. :)

[Blinkazoid]

I'm not sure if I could survive without decent ketchup! My condolences. The Brits aren't exactly known for their food.

It would have made for a cool video if the tarp had taken off, LOL.

[dicom]

I am rather fond of PB and Mayo provided the mayo in question is Duke's otherwise I don't want mayo. Since I know you like Miracle Whip, I will refrain from making negative remarks about the stuff. I hate when people do that to me. Besides, its your taste buds, If that's what old Blink likes well thats what he likes!

[Blinkazoid]

I like Miracle Whip and Duke's both. I mainly eat the Miracle Whip because it has a LOT less calories. I know one guy here who used to be in the Army and was stationed somewhere in Washington State. He liked Duke's so much he actually used to have his relatives send him Duke's in the mail!

[dicom]

I've heard of that kind of thing myself Blink. A Duke's fan is by definition hardcore! LOL!

[ralphedds1]

lol, ya miracle whip is ok, but with PB, not for me, love your vid's.

[ralphedds1]

never ever wil I eat a sandwich with Miracle Whip, that is so gross I'd throw the bread out, the beverly hillbillies song would have worked great on this one.

[Blinkazoid]

I love Miracle Whip. To me it tastes as good as mayonaise and has a fraction of the calories. I love mayo too though:) I was very tempted to use the Beverly Hillbillies theme but was afraid to for copyright reasons.

[Bean829]

now that there is a load!

and good use of a tarp that's on its last use

have fun times at the bright lighted casino

what's your favorite game to play?

*goes off to make sandwich since you got me in the mood*

[Blinkazoid]

Usually I just play the slots. Yeah, I know the slots actually have worse odds than playing the table games though. I usually like the slots which have a litte extra something added. Like you hit something and then something up above head level starts spinning around and gives so X number of extra credits. "Wheel Of Fortune" slots is one that works like that but I always have poor luck with that one.

[rhosey001]

You know the comment below me is true. The Beverly Hillbillies is just what that looked like, just in the next century.

[Blinkazoid]

Yep, I don't think they could have piled another single thing on that truck!

[dorotwhy]

Hiya Mom and Dad, just like a boy to forget the ham. :O) Good luck at the tables, slots, etc.Blink, at the end of the video you should have played the theme to the "Beverly Hillbillies"

[Blinkazoid]

If we take a trip in the fall I always make sure to include fresh garden tomatoes. Nothing like a good ham sandwich with as many slices of tomato as you can possibly cram on it:) Assuming I remember the ham of course.

I seriously thought about including the Beverly Hillbillies them but didn't because of copyright reasons.

[dorotwhy]

Well, you could have hummed it, you know, with that awesome voice you have it might have been considered an original and not even been recognized as copyright material :O) Hey any winnings in the casino?

[Blinkazoid]

Heheheh, Yeah I don't think any song I sing could be considered as being presented in it's original form.

I was down almost $160 at one point but I made a comeback and wound up only losing $59. Not too bad really.

[spiralisedcat]

Im growing my hair blinkazoid style,Come on hair grow dammit.I like your choice in sandwiches man i have some weird combos myself :D

[Blinkazoid]

PB and Miracle Whip isn't a usual choice for me but I didn't have much bread and I wasn't about to toss two perfectly good pieces of bread just because they had Miracle Whip on them:)

Best of luck with your new longer hairstyle, LOL. Actually I usually have my hair longer in the summer than in the winter because it always seems to look crappy in the winter and I get disgusted with it and whack it off. I think it's mainly because of all the static electricity and dry inside air in the winter.

[PaintedRavensong]

Okay...peanut butter and mayo? Are you still alive after eating that?...hehehe Have fun!! Wow, I'm glad I wasn't riding my MC behind that truck stacked to the sky!

[Blinkazoid]

Well it did take me 4 whole days to reply to your comment so maybe it *did* have an effect on me, LOL. I seem to be ok now though:)

You could have done some serious drafting riding your motorcycle behind that truck:)

[Dianasme]

I live on oppisite corner of Indiana from you, I live in NW Indiana. We have the boats up here on Lake Michigan, and on the rare occasion I frequent them too.

[Blinkazoid]

Yeah, it pretty much has to be rare because it can be expensive. We always stay at a Harrah's affiliated casino hotel and try our best to get a *comped* room.

[GramsandPapi]

Peanut butter and MW? What, no pickles with that?....I seriously used to eat that when I was pregnant....are you trying to tell us something? LOL!! Your mom and dad are so cute!!! Hope you have a wonderful time! Thanks, Ang

[Blinkazoid]

Thanks Ang:) I had a great time. I'm back home now but still have quite a bit of footage to edit and post.

[1DRock37167]

I hope y'all are having a great time!

PB and Miricle Whip? I dont think Im gonna be giving that one a try.

[Blinkazoid]

Thanks Darryl! Looks like it's pretty much a unanimous thumbs down for the PB and MW, LOL. Well it's not like I recommended it or anything. It just sorta turned out that way. And We'uns are having a great time in spite of piss poor luck at the casinol

[bubbabrand]

were you following jed clampett? lol i was born and raised in indy

[Blinkazoid]

Hehehe, if it hadn't been for copyright infringement reasons I would have certainly used the theme from the Beverly Hillbillies for that clip.

This is my first trip to this area. Seems like a nice enough place so far. Actually the other drivers today seemed to be more courteous than average. I guess that can change day to day though, LOL.

[bubbabrand]

man, i tell ya what... i miss driving in indy. in arkansas they dont know how to make a road go straight. and here in oklahoma people dont know how to merge. wrecks all the time

[Blinkazoid]

We probably drove about 75 city miles yesterday and didn't see a single wreck. One time we had to make a left turn across two lanes of traffic on a VERY busy road and the drivers in BOTH lanes actually came to a stop to let us get across.

[TamHickey67]

Jeez, that guy in front must be some kind of nutcase! I hope the cops pulled him/her over, found a huge ham and gave it away to you for your sandwiches.

[Blinkazoid]

He probably didn't even realize his tarp was flapping around like that. It makes for an interesting morsel to jazz up an otherwise bland vlog though:)))

So far no free hams have been coming my way:( I'll keep a lookout for them though, LOL.

[dl737]

I try to go to the grocery store before I check into a hotel just to make sure I got something to eat - cause you never know. But seems you made do - sort of - lol.

I'd be afraid to drive behind that truck. You're assuming he tied everything OK. Yikes.

[Blinkazoid]

In general when I'm on vacation I'll eat one big meal out and then just eat snacks that I've purchased and taken to the motel room. Maybe not the healthiest of ways to do things but when your away from home it's a very rare person that eats healthy no matter what choices they make. I've got more vacation food vids on the way. My laptop and connection aren't up to the task without complaining though so it might be after I get back home before I post them.

[randomwritings]

Oh what a shame that tarp didn't give way! I am not sure I can comment on the sandwich other than offer you 10 out of 10 for artistic impresion!

[Blinkazoid]

Yep, the tarp giving way or a cascade of items flying off of the truck would have made for a great video! I shall keep my camera ready on the trip home to see what sort of videos the road has in store. The sandwich needed a banana to make it complete:)

[BasicModelling]

Bananas makes everything complete.. :)

[OhCurt]

Wait... you're in Indiana, Nbwulf is in Virginia, Christopher Mast is in Chicago... the world's gone turpsy tovey!

Your sandwich... Elvis wouldn't be man enough to take on such an eating challenge. And not just because he's dead (and by dead, of course I mean, hiding out in the back of that truck while holding Hitler's head in a jar).

Hotel de Bad Lighting looked pretty snazzy, btw.

[Blinkazoid]

The sandwich turned out to be better than the ribs I ate tonight at a rib joint. (And much cheaper) Hopefully tomorrow will be more gastromically pleasing.

What you didn't see on the hotel lighting was all the slight twisting and turning I had to do to get it to a passable level.

Gambling is going slow so far. I've been getting some good thrift store buys though.

[PappyStu]

Gak! P&M?

phooey

yuck

ugg

he he he

[PappyStu]

You should start a tag video chain having folks tell the one most weirdest thing they eat... he he he

[BasicModelling]

Oh no, don't say I have to make another Cheese and marmelade video?? :)

[Blinkazoid]

It wasn't bad actually. If I had deep fried it then Elvis's people might have come after me for copyright infringement, LOLl.

[PappyStu]

Elvis? hmmmmmm hint hint...

he he

[Blinkazoid]

I keep thinking about it:) I need to start belting out a few tunes soon and see which one I can do the best job butchering:)

[raycolondotcom]

Hi Robert, enjoy your time at the casino. Maybe your Mom will win a bundle! Not sure if we can rely on your restaurant reviews after taking a look at the sandwich. :) Ray

[Blinkazoid]

Thanks Ray! It's Tuesday evening as I write this and so far no one's won anything yet. It's not surprising though. The slots were much looser many years ago. They're tight, tight, tight these days. Still everyone is having a good time though.

[NaturalTwentyFilms]

Mayo and Peanut Butter? Now I know for certain you're plum crazy!

Looks like that tarp's truck was coming loose, too.

[Blinkazoid]

Yep, plum jelly would have certainly been better than the mayo, LOL.

[Bocist]

Have fun man on ur trip with your folks. enjoy them while they are still here, awesome.. as for the sandwich.....not sure about that one..lol

[Blinkazoid]

Thanks Bocist! At my age I cerainly feel fortunate to still have them around and still in relatively good health as welll.

[thizizliz]

The truck on the road up was funny but the scenery was gorgeous. You know, my Dad used to make Peanut butter and mayo sandwiches on Fridays. Swore it tasted like meat. I'd forgotten about them until I saw this. Thanks for making me grin. And have fun!

[Blinkazoid]

It tasted fine actually, although it's not something I'd normally choose to eat. I only did it that way because I'd already put mayo on the bread for the ham sandwich and it turned out I didn't have the ham and didn't want to waste the bread.

[Maiyanna]

OMG, I'm watching this video early in the morning, and I must admit that the peanut butter and mayo sandwich nixed my appetite for the day.

Your mom is the gambler, LOL :)

[Blinkazoid]

Yep, mom's the gambler. Unless of course you also consider the peanut butter and mayo sandwich a gamble of sorts, LOLl.

[GreatGig1]

A trip to the casino! Good luck to you while there! :-)

[Blinkazoid]

Thanks Caylyn! We'll certainly need the well wishes. It's always a shocker to me if I so much as break even. Mainly I'm just along for the ride and fulfilling my duties as chief navigator. it's a sure way to lose money. But hey the rooms are fully comped so it stil winds up being a cheap trip.
