Ok, that was genuinely funny. Well done.
 
Re: Wynn Everett Casino | Everett

I don't get this fear. So some schlub with $5 left in his pocket is going to make his way to the casino and then what? Play penny slots for 2 hours? $5 likely won't even get you one single hand of blackjack 95% of the time at the Wynn if not all the time. There are PLENTY of places in greater Boston for the troubled gamblers down to their last few dollars. I see them daily in every convenience store lining up for scratch tickets, cigs alcohol etc. Those expecting to find a high concentration of degenerates, bros looking for fights, thieves, drug dealers and whores at the Wynn are going to be very disappointed.


Anyone who has that kind of a problem with gambling shouldn't go. A true sign of an addiction to gambling. Who on earth is going to go to a casino with that small amount of money, knowing perfectly well not to expect to win big money?

All this stuff probably goes on at Foxwoods, Mohegenson, Twin River, as well as Las Vegas. If they want to gamble, but don't have any money, then they should keep their broke keister home.

If I go, I would bring at least $50 or $65 to gamble with. And if I win back at least half of that, or 3/4 worth, I then get up and go cash out. :rolleyes:

And drug addicts with no money should keep their broke keister's home istead of trying to get more drugs but that's not really how addiction works.

Fortunately, plenty of opportunities on the side of town to turn scrap metal into cash....
 
Re: Wynn Everett Casino | Everett

You really want to get political on this?
Name one area in a America where a Casino added real community value?
Vegas is the only exception since it evolved from a desert community.


The only good thing that comes out of this casino is they are cleaning land up that was completely destroyed by MONSANTO which should be under investigation for all the people in the surrounding areas that got cancer from this type of environmental corruption.

Where the hell was the EPA on this?

Riff -- don't start firing before you can even see the target

The "Monsanto site" has been involved in all manner of industrial activity for a long time

This is Massachusetts where nearly every square foot of land and a lot of what is water has been used and reused for centuries

And back then [say before 1900] most people could see no reason at all for not dumping whatever was the waste product of their business where ever

The good news is that most of the 100+ year old organics are gone reprocessed into water and CO2, etc., by microbiology in the soil -- even some of the 50 year old organic debris has been reprocessed by nature

The bad news is that most of all of the inorganics are still there or worse have become part of the food chain -- particularly bad if heavy metals and some non-metals such as Arsenic are involved

Moral of the story is that at least part of the site dates from the mid 1800's as there was an island in the Mystic that housed a chemical works circa 1868

Lot's of filling occurred to make more land and the origin of the fill is unknown then a succession of owners operated on the land until it was bought by Monsanto and eventually ny Boston Edison

see for example
The Former Monsanto Chemical Company Site
“East Side”
Everett, Massachusetts

Not much of this parcel is “original” land existing at the time of the first colonists. Much of it has been backfilled except for some of the uplands and a major portion of land on the peninsular that once was White Island......

In 1868 New England Chemical started a plant on this site that signaled the beginning of a long history in developing chemical industry in Everett, though this particular company failed by 1872. Alexander Cochrane, a Scot, worked in the Talbot Chemical Works in North
Billerica 1849-58 before coming to Malden/Everett in the latter year. In 1872 the Cochrane
Chemical Co. purchased the trackside property of the New England Chemical Co., and by
1875, with a product worth $300,000, the company was the leading town industry

....During WWI, the Cochrane Chemical Works did a huge business in war materials and
marketed the first U. S. made H-acid.
Cochrane’s 113 acres and 50 buildings were acquired by the Merrimac Chemical Co. in 1917......
The site was in turn purchased by Monsanto in 1929 and in the late 20s the plant began a complete modernization.....

Monsanto Chemical owned the East Side site from 1929 to 1983 when it sold the parcel to
Boston Edison. Sulphuric Acid production was ongoing on the site at least into the early 70’s.
Receiving of sulphur by ship occurred at the East Side as well as aluminum work (exactly
what type is unknown.)

....Boston Edison retained the land until 1995 and their use of the parcel, if any, is unknown. O’Donnell Sand & Gravel bought the land and the easements and use restrictions remained on the deed.

Somewhat similar to alcohol addiction, which in this case, would go hand in hand with gambling.

But the more that you gamble, they will come and FEED you the drinks or beer. I don't plan to do any heavy drinking if I were to go there. Nor do I plan to do any heavy gambling. :cool:
 
Re: Wynn Everett Casino | Everett

Looks like they have repaired and extended the old RR tracks almost all the way to the Mystic River. Not sure what this is all about????

Yeah I wonder. Are they going to be use them to move soil off site?
 
Re: Wynn Everett Casino | Everett

Wow. That is a lot of action. I guess they are serious about building a casino!

Yes......This project is all politics and Money---Too bad there was never a serious traffic study on this site--

Just a bunch of paperwork saying yeah an offramp will be fine.
 
Re: Wynn Everett Casino | Everett

re: tracks

They're building two 1500' storage tracks for "dirty dirt" (contaminated soil) to be loaded up in special rail cars and shipped off. *Supposedly* clean dirt will also be coming in, which I haven't heard of ever happening before, but it makes sense that removed soil must be replaced. Freight activity is really kicking up and Pan Am is putting on a new crew, maybe even two, to handle all the traffic.
 
Re: Wynn Everett Casino | Everett

Just when Boston and the surrounding areas were cleaning up for the better. What does the state and Politicians do: WE NEED A CASINO. Nothing good will come out of this one besides Wynn and his investors make a fortune.
This will be the news ticker concerning this development over 5 years:
#1 Wynn nets a billion for the sale:
#2 Everett Mayor goes to jail
#3 5 More bodies dug up in the area
#4 Boston Traffic unbearable (Possibly reaching LA Levels)
#5 High End hookers pulling in Million dollar bonuses from Divorce Lawyers
#6 Drug Cartel Leader running against the Mayor of Everett in the next election.

There are plenty of other reasons for the Everett mayor to end up behind bars.
