Ed I spent 30 days behind bars in tupelo for trying to steal mojo. Being the oprah of oil and a Fa La La La La.... La la la la dinger had no bearing on the matter to the judge. Webman bailed me out and now I have to submit to random mojo testing for the next 12 months. How is that for getting no respect?

If it weren't for bad draws, you'd have no drawers!

Ed you are putting off some bad energy right now. It is creating much interference for those here to learn. Think positve good thoughts. Yoga or thi chi help me in troubled moments. Ummmmm Ummmmm.
If that does not work I throw something or drink a barly soda. (beer to the unimformed)
Because of this I have been called a lot of things but "smart " is not one of them.

Perhaps some Venti Herbal tea from CD's Starbucks will do the trick? Nothing beats a rocky mountain high! On the negative side, I have been known to give some bad karma(nothing real recent!) but it has helped me to get 3 RF's this year. Not too shabby for 5 1/2 months into the year and only making 4 casino visits this year! Perhaps if I had studied under  I would be like WAAAAY ahead.

And he did it all off the back of a sccoter!!!!
And in between all that never lost a single hand of video poker. Sounds like beep beep
or toot toot.
As he rode away from the CASINO into the KNIGHT.

Marie, thanks for the post about the book.  I'm always on the lookout for info on how to clean out Vegas, but I guess I missed this one. 
 
I got on the Barnes & Noble site and read the synopsis.  Sounds like a good book - here's a link to it:

No, oej, I don't think Rob was involved since the guys in the book left Vegas WITH money.    But maybe they hired him and his scooter to be a diversion during one of the jobs.  I think I'll buy the book and find out the Truth.

New Book re gambling: HATS & EYEGLASSES, A Family Love Affair with Gambling by Martha Frankel. Call number: 363.4 F   This appears as a chick-lit, perhaps one-day read, IF I can find that day to open it! 226 pages. 2008. Author's dad was into poker and her mom, mah-jongg. Book traces author's love affair with poker. The title: one of her uncle's "term used to describe those times when you're losing so bad your ship is sinking until all that's left on the water's surface is your hat and eyeglasses." "By turns hilarious and heartbreaking......is a tale of passion, addiction - and those times in life we almost lose our shirt." I find it amazing that my husband would hand me this book when he really wants me accomplishing other things that do not revolve around gambling.
