I totally agree. But how did they miss it for 9 full months? Everytime she got a sonogram they said girl how did that slip through the cracks?

Depending on how the baby is positioned during ultrasounds, it can be tough to see it.

I knew it could be hard but I thought after enough ultrasounds they would be able to know for sure. How weird must that feel as a parent to be preparing for a girl for 9 months and then you find out you are having a boy?

Its called confirmation bias- once someone said it was a girl and the ultrasound person 'knows' that, they don't notice information to the contrary. While it happens everywhere, its a very prevalent problem healthcare where there are a lot of 'human' checks.

Note: I was going to lolz at your double post, but you already deleted it.

The Barona ones where pretty awesome. "Come to where the players play". My bet is that Kenny Rogers never even set foot in that place.

My main problem is with the Pechanga and Morongo commercials. They play them constantly during the baseball games. They usually contain a very annoying song and video of lots of young attractive people having a good time. The thing is, when you go into them its always old people with walkers and oxygen tanks.

Forgot about that, they are like a mobile time bomb. I wonder why the casinos attract the old smokers?

they have an gov't funded income?
 
Them old folks at casinos are crazy. They're always doing these weird hand signs at the slots and they are always watching you. The second you get up it's like a walker traffic jam to get into your spot.

I see, its like an indirect way for the government to give reparation after all we put the Native Americans through. Brilliant.
 
For some odd reason I got talked into joining a few friends for a "drink a gallon of milk in an hour" challenge. This is most likely not gonna be pretty.

I'm a sucker for a challenge. I'll just have to continue with my motto... brute force and ignorance! I wonder what they'd all say if I even showed up with chocolate milk. That'd be a gut bomb.
 
we definately need videos... this is a youtube moment waiting to happen
 
I used to have a snowboard video where the kid drinks a gallon of milk and then goes on one of those swing things at a fair. I cant seem to find it with google.

I did this drinking milk challenge once. I was pledging....not cool
 
It turns out it will be my buddy, his girlfriend, and me. I guess everyone else doesn't want to nut-up to the challenge. Kickoff in 1 hour. :D

You rebels! Next time influence them to exchange the milk for beer. At least it would be more fun.
