Peter:
Like why I am here is your business? Well if you must pry, when I first came on board here, I did bet and was attracted by the high quality handicappers at this site like Raymond, Box, Steel City, Hoops, Fletcher, and others.
Since I quit gambling, I only buzz this forum. Actually, since it is so popular with many different individuals posting here, it is in a sense a replacement for the action that I gave up when I stopped gambling.
The variety of people is what attracts me. Ya got your political junkies, porn junkies, dike-nation, law students, gamblers, psycho's, right wingers (boy do they have there share of right wingers), left wingers, insurance people, corporate minions, quasi-medical professionals, and BeantownJim (who defies catagorization).
As far as mind-betting, I don't know about you, but I'm saving one hell of a lot of money. See, I was never very good at real betting. So I mind-bet. I wouldnt knock it if I were you cause all your gonna have in Vegas is mind-sex.
Fletcher, as you know, I do not mean to offend anyone with my posts. I try, and sometimes succeed in getting a few yucks outta people. I think we should all be able to laugh at ourselves and one another.
I really like Pengy's signature line quoting Warren Zevon "enjoy every sandwich". It is too short and we should all laugh more. We should also not be too serious about ourselves and realize we are all just trying to make it and get by as best as we can.
Okay, no more pearls of wisdom from the Book of Eddie. I know you were messin with me. As I was with you. Just let me know if your ever serious and I will give you directions to my nice little Cape Cod with the white picket fence on Main Street in Bowling Green.
