I Also Like to Live Dangerously

I have no idea how those video slot machines work, but I put $5 in a penny one and cashed out with $10.40 and put $10 in a nickel one and cashed out with $26.90. Add that to the rest and…
Gambling results so far: Up $61.50
Maybe I’ll be adventurous tomorrow night and put that all down on the blackjack table. One of these days I’ll have to learn my lesson…

  1. When was the last time you were $61.50 ahead at the ball park or the opera?
    Gambling is entertainment, and when practiced in moderation it is a real long way from the most expensive entertainment.
    Have fun, gamble sensibly. And good luck.

  2. Did someone mention Craps earlier? That reminds me of that picture of John Kerry. He looks like he just stepped from a bathroom that he, himself, fouled. That’s why he’s wearing the protective suit.
    DO NOT GO IN THERE!! WHEW!!!!

  3. Frank, I’m surprised at you! Remember the immortal words of Homer Simpson: “If you really want something in life you have to work for it. Now quiet, they’re about to announce the lottery numbers.”

  4. Frank, listen to your T-shirt babe (I think that’s always a safe bet). The craps table is where it’s at. Even if you don’t know how to play you’ll win.
    Reminds me of my friend who had a few to many of those complementary adult beverages and forgot what bets he had made, but still kept winning. He turned to the rest of use with the utter confusion that only a drunk can have and asked “What’s going on? Why do they keep giving me money?”
    Eh, guess you had to be there.
    My point is, make them keep giving you money. Good Luck.

  5. Could it be that i’m the first to say
    FIRST!

    lol @ ima mommy
    20 posts and no claims of firstness.
    I think SarahK has finally put and end to such shenanagins. She will sissify you at her blog for such claims. trust me I know.
    I posted first, finally! :O)
    and she changed it to
    ! :o)
    At least she left my smily and my exclamation point.

  6. ya know, as I was writing it I was thinking…hmmmm…did I miss the post where being “first” is no longer “in?” Thought it was strange that in 20 posts no one claimed the fame.
    I sure don’t want SarahK on MY case!
    Soooo, forget about the first stuff ok? I’m not first, I’m 20th – and that’s nothing to be proud of!

  7. OK, Joshua:
    SarahK is as dangerous and seductive as Linda Fiorentino in ‘The Last Seduction’!
    As dangrous as that one stick of Dynamite in the bundle that’s damp and leaking Nitroglycerine!
    As dangerous as that really big, great looking Engagement Cubic Zirconia that Frank (We hope!) is much too smart to pass off on Sarah!
    Remember, Sarah. These are all in jest!
