"Guaranteed 90% Mindless!"

I'm freakin' out man!

I stopped at 7-Eleven for some goodies on the way home from work yesterday. I made my selections and proceeded to the check-out counter where events transpired that I was scarcely prepared for. The check-out girl rang up my items and gave me a total that blew my mind. That's right. $6.66! I would have asked for a receipt (which I could frame) but I was struck by an overwhelming sense of DOOM.
I hope that the Evil Overlords will recognize my years of service. Many souls must have gone to the dark side thanks to my tireless efforts. I have recommended The God Delusion to at least enough people to earn an honorable mention.

You know what this means? I'm going to get three 6's playing video poker this weekend AND that will be my best hand. Doomed indeed.

Dammit. Enough with the video poker! I lose more money at that than anything else even if you count the beer.

I dont know how you guys play video poker so much. I get bored of playing a single game in Vegas if it's for more than an hour. Dan, I told Aaron that when Curt plays craps, it is mandatory that everyone else in our group plays also. If nothing else, for old times sake.

And I told Gary that we have different definitions of mandatory. The only person who tells me how to gamble is the person providing my bank roll. That just so happens to be ME. Anybody else who wants to fund my gambling is welcome to call the shots.
I MIGHT play craps IF we find a $5 table and IF I'm felling good about my bank roll at the time.
James - Don't you have something more constructive to say? You're such a downer.

I think James is referring to the time when we were in Vegas and an Asian craps dealer had a very thick accent. He was unusually enthusiastic when a shooter rolled a 7 after the point was established.

Curt says he is not playing craps this trip. He's here to drink and to stalk Jack MF Johnson. If Curt does end up playing craps we will probably not see him for the duration of our trip. I will keep him far from the tables.

With Curt you should really only believe 20%. You must have a lot of faith.

Sometimes I played the don't pass line... usually as a hedge when I had way too much stuff going on elsewhere on the table.
