For those of us that have been to Biloxi, chances are you are gonna meet some women who are in the air force. Speaking from personal experience, they are really fun, love to party and cut loose, and know their way around the town.

Well, it looks like they elected a spokeswoman. Mary Kay Hertog was just promoted to command the entire 2nd Air Force which is based out the base in Biloxi. ….Is it just me or is she hot for a woman that controls F-22’s that could bomb you into oblivion at the same time the pilot who launched the bombs has already landed, had a coke and smile, and took back off to watch the bombs hit the target?

Yes. Yes, she is. Keep an eye out next time you’re at the tables at the Hard Rock, or playing slots at the Beau Rivage. You might run into Gen. Hertog cutting loose like many, many of her fellow airwomen do!

June was a wake-up month for Mississippi casinos, which saw the kind of bad hand dealt casinos in Las Vegas and Atlantic City for well over a year.

The gross casino revenue reported monthly by the Mississippi State Tax Commission showed Coast casinos down 28 percent compared to last June. The river casinos were down 13 percent and the state overall saw a 20 percent drop in casino revenue.

June 2008 was the fifth- best month on record, when the Coast casinos won $114.6 million.

There are 11 casinos now compared to 12 before Hurricane Katrina.

August 2008 was the last time the Coast casinos saw a better month than the previous year.

This the 10th straight decline.

That’s followed by a State of the Industry report from Virginia McDowell, president of Isle of Capri Casinos; John Payne, president of Harrah’s Entertainment’s Central Division, and Tom Wilmott, president of Penn National Gaming, parent company of Boomtown Biloxi and Hollywood Casino Bay St. Louis.

They know first hand the casino industry in Biloxi has many of the same challenges as businesses around the country.

“Right now everyone is aware of the financial constraints in the market,” said Larry Gregory, executive director of the Mississippi Gaming Commission. Almost all new development is on hold, he said, and most existing casinos are waiting on expansion plans.

Some progress is being made on new casino projects, but John Ellis, one of the developers of Blue Water Bay Resort, said it is probably three years before the casino resort near Pass Christian will be operational.
