John Merris Coots. He popped open a purloined bottle of whiskey and took a pull. Might as well die as he lived, Elmer thought: stone-cold drunk.
Gunfire crackled through the Oklahoma air for an hour before deputies realized Elmer had stopped shooting back. The Pawhuska undertaker declared him deceased on Oct. You will be forgiven for dismissing the story out of hand as too unbelievable to be true. Its arm falls off, revealing bone and human-looking tissue. The horror sets in. Ostracized as an illegitimate child, Elmer headed west as soon as he was able. He had some happy memories, though.
The Muskogee Daily Phoenix wrote in he was known for mooning over a photograph of a young girl and an old man on the front porch of a colonial home. Around , Elmer found himself in Oklahoma with a drinking problem and no cash to lubricate it. He developed a clever scheme. Unlike most Wild West scalawags who ran with established gangs, Elmer never ran with the same crew twice. Deputies got to the scene quickly and used scent hounds to track Elmer to the barn where he was killed.
His body was preserved with a particularly effective arsenic-based fluid now banned, for obvious reasons and the Pawhuska morgue kept the diminutive 5-foot-3 criminal propped up in the parlor for relatives to claim.
But the years passed and no one came. They told him they had come to collect their brother; it was the last wish of their parents that they be reunited with their son. No doubt relieved to be rid of Elmer, the undertaker helped the men pack up the coffin and ready it for shipment to San Francisco.
But this was not to be. Washington State did the same thing when their poker rooms lobbied the capitol to allow "other" card games. Like Arizona and California, they figured it would be much easier to say, "Well, the state already allows poker. It's a card game. We just want a few other card games like blackjack. They voted for card games, not really casinos.
So, no roulette or craps. However, to get around the laws, some casinos in California offer a kind of roulette and craps which includes the use of playing cards. It's not the same, but it's not that different.
And, you can play slots that are legal and pretty darn close to the real thing. If you love craps, you'll miss throwing the dice , making call bets at the last second, and harassing the dealers. You may also miss chatter from the dealers like, "Niner, niner, boxman's a whiner. In fact, you'll hear plenty of good-natured screaming and rooting for points on the big electronic games.
As an exception or a substitute, the games are pretty good. You can bet for smaller amounts than live games, and the casinos like them because there are cheap to run, employee-wise. Instead of a crew of four dice dealers and a boxman, a single slot tech can watch the game and several others at the same time! As for roulette , many companies now offer roulette machines that incorporate an actual wheel. You make your bets on the video screen, the wheel spins, the ball is spun the opposite direction and you can still watch it land right next to the number you were betting on no, it's not rigged, it's just as frustrating as real roulette.
In fact, it's as close as you can get to the real thing, and many younger players have adapted to the new electronic games very well.
