of property there. That's an ugly thing to watch. After Katrina, all these assholes came here to Biloxi to snatch up property and flip it, because they knew that the laws would change and land-based gaming would be legal (up until then we'd only had downside gambling). People had lost everything, but all those vultures could think about was turning a profit from the disaster. I really feel terrible for Cuba. In a lot of ways, they have been sheltered for the past 50 years. They never had control, and now they never will, most likely.
