    Haha! "It's Stoner food..." Hey Ted!! I have had Luxor years ago, but never Excalibur so let's go! Price is not bad so....Great scenes as always. You make Excalibur look good. I do like playing the slots at Excalibur. Thanks for showing everything...I think I would just have the meat, maybe an omelet. I do love French Toast too and yes! Breakfast potatoes! Dang...you covered it all! Yum blueberry pie. I hit the carving station first too! Nothing worse than dry brisket. I like Spring Rolls. I love Ted's shirt! He is hilarious!
