In the middle of the beeping, flashing seizure-inducer that is the Harrah's casino in downtown New Orleans, we saw this weekend one thing which made our half-hour journey into the headache machine forever worthwhile -- a bright yellow "slot machine" with a logo of familiarly ugly design we know from its viral infection of nonfiction bookshelves everywhere. Yes, it was...
'Winning For Dummies. With its instant brand recognition, advanced interactive technology and hugely entertaining game play, the Winning For Dummies EVO video slot is a "no brainer" for casino operators who want to increase their slot operations' overall "IQ" (Income-generating Quotient).'
Unfortunately, the Bally PDF which confirms we didn't dream it contains only a logo (see page 7) and not an image of the machine itself. But now we know that the Culture of Stupid is without a doubt our official one. If you have any doubts, by the way, about how to use the device, you can always get help from the usual source.
