Oh well, with a Jewish mother and Italian father I assumed you would be celebrating one or the other or both. But you know what they say happens when you assume.

As far as the wife, take her when you have the cahnce. My wife comes down with me occasionally and since she doesn't like to gamble I find her a quiet corner and she reads a book. It really shouldn't screw with your concentration and she'll probably be cooler with you going down there.

Or better yet, teach her to play.
