Happy New Year

Welcome to the year 4712, the year of the horse. This is the most important time for Atlantic City hotels, of course. It is tradition for good luck to eat noodles on the first day. Make sure we have plenty of them in inventory today. Have those fireworks to frighten the evil spirits away. Have loads of red envelopes with money at the noodle bar. Our honored guests will have traveled very far. Get the tables ready for baccarat, pai gow, and sic bo. Our patrons will be wagering loads of money in the casino Whether they come from Hong Kong, Beijing, or Taipei, cater to all their wishes during their stay.

xin nian kuai le . Nice to give reverence to the most populated nation on earth. The true New years celebration is experienced on the mainland. But everyone celebrate it in their own way. Nice thought.

4712=2014. I was referring to the Chinese New Year that began on January 31.
