Gamblers split tens

About a month ago, the Shee texted me this. Within 3 minutes I placed the same bet, somehow at +140. Monkey see, monkey do. If you watched the event today, she went off at -290 and won the race. Cash those tickets! Where's the Blog Announcement? Giving winning bets is...

At a young age, and playing all intramural sports, I knew internally that cheating to win was not fun. Stacking teams that created non competitive games was like watching paint dry. Who can forget putting the 5 best players on a team in pickup ball and running court....

"You're rich, bro" - I ran to the Art Museum to do the Rocky steps for 20 minutes of exercise. I brought two dollars in case I wanted to get water from a local vendor. After the work out, I was sweaty and the dollars were too. This could be an issue. I walked over to...

Click bait title! Two political posts in a row! What can I say, it's pretty captivating at the moment. This is a little ramble-y, but feels relevant. In my last post about Biden's age I wrote that I couldn't see myself voting for Trump despite Biden being 100 years...

4 Beers and Driving Drinking and driving has gotten to a point where you're an asshole if you do it. In the 80's, you didn't have much of a choice. With Uber so prevalent, it's hard to make good cases to drive places if you intend to drink. Having said that, I hear...

Yesterday I was ripping it down 95 heading to work at about 6am. It's lighter traffic than usual and I've gotten used to spots where cops are so my normal pace is 80, and I'll push it from time to time. I check my rear view and see a Benz coupe approaching rapidly....
