Return to the Tables

I had to go out of town recently for a company function. Once I was able to excuse myself from said function I managed to find a way to the new Casino in town. I hadn't been there yet and I wanted to check it out. I wanted most of all to see their Poker Room.

This was definitely a step up in terms of the amount of tables available for play than the one on the other side of town. I walked into the rather large poker room and wandered up to the desk to ask their set up. A Very Bored but beautiful young lady spent a couple of minutes explaining that this casino offered $2/$4, $4/$8, $10/$20, $20/$40 Tables. The $10/$20 and the $20/$40 I believe were NL (No Limit) tables. I was really happy to hear they had a $2/$4 Limit table. That meant I didn't have to buy in for as much (I bought in for $100 as opposed to $200) as I did the last time I played Hold'em at the other casino.

They were 13 people on the waiting list and it only took roughly 20 minutes to get down to my name on the list. I somewhat fluked out in the fact that I was standing wathing the table that I was sat at.

I was brought back to the table by one of the floor people and he put my chips out for me. It was a really strange entrance as I could sense the table taking a look at me when I arrived. I decided that I needed to introduce myself to the table in the strangest way.

I've always been a firm believer in going with your gut. (Although sometimes it's just gas). As I was taking my seat, and the dealer was asking me if I wanted to post, I asked where the big blind was only to find out it was my seat. Well, that meant I was in.

The dealer dealt the cards and since I was big blind I decided I wasn't going to even look at my cards to begin with. The majority of the table called the $2 opening bet and so when the bet came around to me, still not looking at my cards, I raised the bet to $4. Again the majority of the table called my bet. (I wonder how many people even noticed I raised blind) and the dealer dealt out the flop. The Flop was something Q-Q... so I decided I'd best take a peak at my hole cards because this could go massively wrong now. I peaked at my cards to see a the beautiful American Airlines looking back at me. I bet out and was called. The turn was insignificant so I bet out again, awaiting the raise, that never came. The River card was the most beautiful card I could dream of. It was the third Ace. Giving me a Full House. I checked which brought out the betting and I raised and was called and I turned it over first announcing "Full House" and I took the pot down. Going up $40 right away.

I spent the next five hours playing the table hitting a peak of being just over $100. I did flucuate down a bit but managed to recover without ever dropping below my original investment of $100.

The NEXT most memorable hand of the night came quite late into my evening. Holding Q-10 Spades in the hole I played a rather nasty board that ended up A-J-J-8-A. I hit the flush on the turn but was sure when the river turned the second Ace up that one of the other two players left in the hand MUST have an Ace or Jack to finish the full house. The guy to my right checked the bet so I checked and the button bet out $4 and having come this far I said outloud "Oh well, I gotta see it", of which the guy to my right also agreed and we both called the $4. I was STUNNED (although, I really shouldn't be thinking how loosely $2/$4 can be played by inexperienced players) by the fact NEITHER player had the Ace or the Jack. I looked to my left and then to my right seeing they both had crap I turned my cards over and said "I only have the Flush." Then the DEALER was noticeably shocked and asked aloud "Doesn't ANYONE have the Ace or the Jack?! Flush Pays."

I'd have to say I have uncanny luck going to an establishment for the first time and playing. I'm also well aware I ended up being up both times I've played face to face Hold'em Tables. I must admit to that I got great cards and the flops and subsequent cards went in my favour the majority of the time and made it rather easy to play my hands.

I lost two hands by being outkicked. Those hurt the most. One was holding A-7 and having a pair of aces only to be beat by someone holding A-8. I was also hit Two Pair Holding A-J on the turn on another hand only to get killed by a K on the river which gave the player holding A-K a better two pair.

As the morning started to arrived (Gotta love them 24 hr Casinos) the table got short handed and the other players were getting agitated by the small pots. I actually don't mind playing a short handed table. I find you have to play a little bit looser but if you get good hole cards with a decent flop you're in good shape to win short handed. Anyway, there was one too many players at our table to fit the holes on the other tables which would have meant one of us would have to go on the waiting list. I decided the was a cue and said I was leaving. Everyone's happy and I left up $68 bucks.

In Online Poker, I'm still sitting at $18 on Panther. Been taking a beating on both Absolute and Superior. I'm down to $7.61 on AP and $11.50 on Superior. I recently joined Royal Vegas Poker and they gave me $10 for signing up which made me think I was going to do well there but I am down to $1.26 and doubtful that I'll be able to get that back to the required $25 to withdraw it. I still think it's pretty good for an initial investment of $0 to any of them.

How Libra Am I?

You are 53% Libra







Apparently, The fact I'm born close to Scorpio has some influence... (67% Scorpio)

Which is funny cause I've always said I was a Libra with Scorpio tendencies.



Airline Needs Press Fires Blogging Flight Attendant

I see the latest HOT topic on blogs seems to be the Queen of the Sky that got her ass fired for posting pictures of herself on the internet.

She should have known with the anti-liberal government in power that these things were frowned upon by less than 50% (Well, maybe closer to 50%, Bush actually won this election.) of Americans. A group made up of her employers obviously. If she'd posed NUDE I could, obviously, understand, but fully clothed?

Push for a Pull

Well, One night after getting knocked out of a $0.25 buy-in multi-table tourney I played a $0.50 + $0.10 Single Table Tourney. A very even almost cautious table I spent most of the tourney sitting on the bubble (Top 3 pay) but managed to play my patient game and grab the chip lead late in the game with 5 of 9 players remaining. I lost the chip lead a couple of times but managed to get it back. Made it to the Final 3 sitting second. Finally out played the chip leader for the lead and never looked back. Winning the 1st place payout of $2.25! (Sorry, no great recollection of hands tonight.) So that bring my Absolute Poker account up to $10.80 !! Give me a few more wins and it's going to start pull even with my Panther account.

Another 2nd Place Finish

I don't know if I can actually call this as good a win as the previous
2nd Place Finish I had a few days ago. Although this wasn't a
freeroll this was $0.25+$0.00 buy-in on Absolute Poker and
it was a much smaller field of 78 players instead of the almost 200
that were in the freeroll. I think the real money tournaments bring
out the better players although it's hard to say what level of player
will play a $0.25 buy-in.

It's a refreshing change though to have had two 2nd place finishes now
in one week on Absolute. I was beginning to think there I couldn't
win on there. I think my play must be improving slightly. Although,
if you still took the percentage of tournaments entered compared to my
finishes I suck some major ass. But I think it's a step in the right
direction. That brings my absolute poker real money account to a total
of $9.40 !!

My Grand Total Online Accounts (Panther and Absolute) equal nearly $30 !!

Poker Update

So, I know I've mention I would keep you updated as to how I'm doing online with my real money poker accounts.

I've been playing a lot of Freerolls while I have time off and actually spending way too much time playing freerolls but the finally paid off (not hugely) and I also finally managed to win some real money on another Poker Site.

First on Panther Poker I was playing in a few of their $10 Freeroll Saturday Tournaments and managed to finish in 2nd place! [My BEST EVER finish in any tournament.] and I won a WHOPPING $3 for my effort! But Hey, That's another FREE $3. That actually brings my Panther Poker Account up to $19.17 !! Now if I could stop losing my money on the $0.05/$0.10 tables I'd be doing ok. My Goal here is to hit about $50.

I really love the way that Absolute Poker looks. Although, I haven't done very well in many of their freerolls. I think my best finish was Top 50. I joined a $150 Guarenteed Special Freeroll where the Top 30 paid out. I was playing this tournament along side the same Panther Poker Tourney I won at so I wasn't concentrating very hard but I was doing fairly well. I hit a real sting of bad beats and ended up finishing 27th place! Winning me a Whopping $5.

Then I meandered around looking at what you can play in terms of real money there. I was looking at a $0.50 + $0.10 Single Table Tourney. So, with one seat left to sit in I decided to sit down. I ended up getting an early chip lead and was nearly three times what the rest of the table had. This was a really pleasant table all people were really talkative and friendly. I'd enjoy playing against any of them again. Anyway, Someone finally caught up to me in chips and as we slowly knocked off the rest of the table we finally went heads up against each other. It went back and forth a lot but I spanked pretty hard holding pocket J's and he had 9-7 diamonds which we both went all in on and he hit a straight knocking me down from being slightly in the lead to being slightly done with just over 1000 T chips. So I ended up going out 2nd and won $1.35. After the $0.60 buy-in that left my Absolute Account Sitting at $5.75. We'll see If I can build up this account to something decent as well.

In one last piece of news. I did something I guarentee I will NEVER see again in my entire life. While playing in a Freeroll Tournament on Absolute. I FLOPPED a ROYAL FLUSH. Yes, The VERY best hand in POKER nothing can beat it and I FLOPPED it while all in holding A-K clubs in the pocket. Which means I got the 10 - J - Q of clubs on the first three cards dealt to the board. I had to take a TRIPLE take to believe what I saw. Talk about MONSTER hands.

Well, Looks like the fashion industry *maybe* finally bowing to the pressure that perhaps the entire world is not a size 0 or . They've finally brought out Mannequins with bigger butts. Which I must admit makes a pair of women's jeans looks WAY better! Then again, I've never denied the fact I like a woman with some nice curves especially in the posterier!

Horrible Addiction

Yes, You know it's coming another flash game! This time it's a Paper Throwing Game.

You Want a Piece of Me?

As you may know I play a Fantasy Stock Game online called The Hollywood Stock Exchange Which is a place where you trade shares of movies and stars and try and make money. So far I'm sucking ASS. Big Time. I'm a little under my starting money.

You may also know that I at time do a Google search for my online moniker "Bingoguy" and see what the results turn up.

I was very shocked to see I'm being publically traded on ANOTHER Fantasy Stock Exchange BlogShares. I'm what you might call a penny stock. It looks like so far there's only 4000 shares of me out there and I'm worth about $1100.00 dollars. Whoever is invested in me isn't going to be making money anytime soon.

It's a bit embarrassing to point out how pathetic my readership is.

10 Random Songs

So, I thought since this is the place where I put in crap that no one really cares about (and according to my stats no really reads either) I thought I'd play a little game that I found via Neurotic Fishbowl who was doing this because Tenth-Muse suggested it. (Who is in love with Electric Boogaloo, So Much So they live together [GASP!])

Anyway, They Turned on their Mp3 Player and hit Random and Let 10 Songs Play. Since you NEVER quite know what would come up from my HUGE library I thought I'd play along too.

So Without Further Ado, Here's What Played...

1. Diana Krall - Between THe Devil And The Deep Blue Sea
2. CCR - Down On THe Corner
3. Peter Gabriel - Red Rain
4. Lords of Acid - Show Me Your Pussy
5. Black Crowes - Cypress Tree
6. Mel C - Suddenly Monday
7. Rocky Horror Picture Show - Over At THe Frankenstein Place
8. Portishead - Strangers
9. Beta Band - Won
10. Killing Joke - Democracy (Nine Inch Nails Mix)

Wow, Minus the Mel C (an album my cousin asked me to download and give a listen to) and the Lords of Acid (I used to be a DJ in a Peeler Bar.) the list makes me look a whole lot cooler than I actually am.

Unbelievable!

I did it.

Tonight, I took the  plunge and sat down at a $6/12 Limit Hold 'em Table.  I've played quite bit of Texas Hold'em.  I've played in Tournaments and placed in the top 10 about 3 times and had what I consider decent finishes (Top 100) quite a few times.

The kicker is all my play has been online where people can't see me jumping up and dancing everytime I win a big pot or I start talking to my cards because I've gotten two decent hole cards.

No, This was face to face 10 seat Limit Hold 'em.  This was going to be a completely different animal.

I really should back up a little.  I first wandered over to the poker area after getting my butt kicked on a table game in the casino.  The thought of playing actual hold 'em poker never entered my mind until I was pretty deep on this table game and I heard an announcement of some joe shmoe that his seat was ready in the poker room.

I left the table I was taking a beating on and decided out of curiousity to wander over to the poker area.  There I found 4 tables.  There were a lot of people milling around watching.  I couldn't clearly see what the wagers were or how much you had to buy in for so I just stood and watched the table.

Having read at least one book on Poker (Hellmuth's Play Poker Like the Pros) I kind of had an idea what I was looking at in terms of the player's seated at the tables.  I probably watched the table for about 30 minutes.  Realized the Blinds were $3/$6 and the majority of people arriving at the tables had $200 in chips.  I continued to watch for a little bit when I decided "I think I could win at these tables" 

I wandered over to the desk where the waiting list was and perused the house rules looking to see if anything extrodinary stood out to me that I would need to make note of but it looked pretty standard.  I asked the guy behind the desk a few questions.  Mostly, confrming the blinds and course of play.  He told me the first two table were "sattelite" tables and that the main games were being played on the other two tables beside them.  I, then put my name on the wait list and then went for a bit of a walk because there were at least 8 people ahead of me.

While I was walking I was thinking that I probably wouldn't stay long enough to even reach my name on the wait list.  I made the circuit around the casino and then headed back to the poker room.  I, again, stood by the table and tried to get a read on the types of players that were playing at this table where I would most likely start to play.  Watching the hands and watching a number of player's playing right through to the river was another indication to me that my practice time online would do me well.  That is, if I could manage to hold a poker face (which was my biggest doubt about myself).

I was watching when one of pit bosses (if that's what they call them I don't know, sigh) came up and told someone they had a seat open at the next table and the suddenly I heard it.  "Bingoguy, Your Seat is ready in the poker room."

[Gulp]

I walked up and bought in for $200.  Took my rack and then sat down at the table.  The big blind had passed my spot about 2 hands before so I could post in if I wanted to but I asked to wait for the big blind.  Which one player couldn't understand as he babbled on to the player beside him because the BB was "way over there" (pointing to my side of the table).  I just wanted a few more hands, now that I was actually seated to take a good look at my opponents.

They only managed to deal about 4 hands before either a number of players on other tables left or a number of them busted out because suddenly 4 or even 5 players got moved from our table to the next one,  The dealer then waited for them to seat more players.  My strategy to watch the others kind of took a punch to the stomach.  When they finally seated players I actually ended up being the big blind. Throwing in my $6 the dealer dealt the cards.

Now, I don't really remember this hand as well as you would think I should. I do remember I was dealt K-2o. I checked  in and took the flop.  Now I don't remember the flop which should tell you how memorable those cards were but I being this was the first hand I decided to bet out.  I was met by a number of folds.  One person called me and the dealer brought us to fourth street another nothing card.  I bet out again on the turn and the other player folded. Woo, Who says you can't bluff at low limit tables?

The key I think was I showed no emotions.  My HEART was racing but I was concentrating on making sure I was looking disinterested in what I was actually doing and just betting matter of factly.  I continued to play for awhile and watch a couple of people bust out.  A couple of the people went to the second table.  I was probably slightly ahead of my $200 at this point but nothing to write home about.  The Pit Boss then walked up to the table enquring who "Bingoguy" was.  I nodded and said it was me and was told there was a seat at the next table.  I took my chips and moved to the next table.

Strangely enough, I was seated at the exact same seating position as I was for the first table (that I didn't mention was the immediate left the dealer, not that it makes a difference).  I took this to be a bit of a good luck charm since I hadn't been doing terrible in this position at the first table.  I had played 2 or 3 hand when I was dealt J-J.  I waited as number of people called and when the bet got to me I raised.  Two other people called me and then the flop game. 5-J-J.  Glory Halleujeah!  It's JAM TIME!  The first player checked, second player bet out $6 and I raised to $12. The first player folded and the second player called.. I don't remember the turn card because it really didn't matter to me.  The remaining player bet out $12 and I raised to $18 and he called.. The river was dealt He bet out $12, which I raised to $18 and he re-raised to $24 and I called him.  I then flipped over my cards to show my Jacks and he folded never showing me what he had. He must have had Trips 5's I think.  The whole table lit up when they saw my massive hand.  The dealer pushed the chips towards me and I started to stack 'em.

The majority of the players I felt I could read somewhat.  I could tell you what it was I was reading but tried to make note of how player's reacted with their bodies when I was able to see their hole cards because of a showdown.  I can't tell you how vital that little tibit of information is.  There were 4 or 5 players, I felt were good players, who gave the stone cold look but their body language said completely different things.  These were the players who were doing well against the rest of the table but I manage to win a hand or two off.

Sitting fairly nicely (probably up $75 at this point) I was once again given the notice that I was being moved to one of the main game tables.  Relunctantly, I picked up my chips and moved over to my seat.  I sat down and was greeted by noone. (Woo, friendly table) I made a quick glance around the table.  Since I had now been either playing or watching the poker room for a few hours now I knew who'd been sitting at these tables all that time.  These were the players I had to be very,very aware of.  Unfortunately for me, I was about to do battle with one of the on the very first hand I got dealt.

The hand dealt to me was Q-Q.  I thought, damn! Great hand to start THIS table with.  I needed a show of strength.  The bet raised pre-flop to $12.  I called.  The flop came 8-A-7.  I bet out and was raised.  I called.  The turn came another 7.  I must admit, I really wasn't thinking at this point and wtih 3 players left I matched the betting and re-raising all the way $24. The river card was a dud and I bet out $12 was re-raised and I called.  The third player folded. I turned up my pair and he tossed his hand face up...A-7.  WHAT AN IDIOT I am.  I should have seen that from the betting but I was blinded by my Ladies. The table basically wrote me off as an idiot player at that point.  I'd also DEVASTATED my chip stack. I turned to the lady beside me and said "Oh well, All I lost was other people's money and that was my worst play all night."  But I was smartin' something fierce.

 I couldn't find any decent cards for quite a few hands and then the guy beside me left.  I told the dealer I wanted to move into his spot and slid my chips over so that I was once again sitting beside the dealer.  This time on his opposite side.  This also thankfully put me out of direct facial contact with the player who had crushed me with his full house.  I think it helped my game a little.  Although, I was still recovering from my smackdown.

I decided to tighten up a bit and I tossed away quite a few suited small cards not having the confidence to play 'em.  It was then sitting in the BB I was dealt K-Jo.  I called it along with about 4 other players.  The flop came A-8-Q and I checked but was bet out by one player. Another called and I decided to call to see 4th street.  It was a 4d to go with the Qd that was already on the board.  I checked again, the next player bet and the last player folded, I was about to fold when my gut said call it.  So I did.  Up popped the 10d.  It was the card I was looking for minus the diamond.  This put a flush on the board.  I checked again and he bet $12 I raised to $24 and then looked down at my chips.  I suddenly got this feeling I should stare the player down so I looked up for the FIRST time all night and looked directly at the other player.  I could see him studying my face.  Did I have the flush?  I think was what he was thinking.  He called me and I announced straight.  Which he responded "what?!" I don't think he saw it.  He flipped over A-5o (although his 5 was a diamond)  I bad beat the guy chasing a straight and BOY was he pissed at me.  Although, I'm not sure if he was mad at me or his luck but he couldn't look at me for quite awhile and he shook his head for at LEAST 2 more hands until he finally won a hand.

A couple hands later I was dealth 3-5c and having won a hand I felt a little more confident staying in to see the $6 flop.  The flop was ok 2-4-J and most of the table folded and I bet out $6 and was called.  The Turn brought the 6 and I knew I was made and hiding fairly well.  Although for effect I checked the 6 and he bet and I called.  After the turn of a dud I started to bet into my opponent (who happened to be pretty friendly old guy who had sat beside me on both of the previous earlier tables.) and basically jammed the pot into a decent sized pot.

At this point I was probably holding a little $400 in chips.

Again in the BB spot I was dealt A-2h, and I re-raised pre-flop.  The flop came down 5-6-Q (and I initially was going to fold thinking I didn't want to spend when I noticed the 5-6 were both hearts.  I was going to have to stay to the turn at least.  The 9 of hearts was dealt and I bet out $12 and couple of the players that were still in the hand said "Ah, he hit it" and folded but I was shocked when two players actually called me.  Bringing me to the river card.  I bet out again $12 and was called.  I turned 'em over said "Sorry, guys".  In these games I was hitting yet another big pot.  The lady across from me even said "You're hitting some pretty big pots now." and I said "Makes up for getting crushed by that full house earlier."

I won a couple of smaller pots after that but I had cleared $500 and I decided to dwindle down what I had over $500 and then called it a night.  I'd been in the casino since about 7'o clock and it was 2am now.  I was getting tired and I thought this was the best time to run away.  Because of the beating took playing a table game before I started playing Hold'em the $500 isn't quite as impressive.  I figure I'm up about $150.  Although, it's been a long time since I walked out of a casino up that much in a long time.

No one said goodnight to me when I left either.  I guess in retrospect I wasn't that overly friendly a player in that I was pretty quiet and didn't chat much.

The end result is I will probably wait a bit before I ever play for money hold'em again. And when I say a bit, I mean it could be next year before I play again with my own money.  It also helps that in my small town there isn't a casino to play poker in.  So, these occasions are left for when I do things like visit my dad.  I think it's funny, in all things gambling.  I seem to be one of those beginners luck type people.  My first time playing I seem to win.

On the other hand, the Red Sox beat the Yankees so miracles do happen.

Yet Another Flash Game...

My Blogging Pal Nero had a link to THIS GAME.

Now it can seem a little fucked up but it's doable. I solved all 20 levels in about 5 minutes... and to prove it, here's the screen capture.




There's a trick to doing it. If you really wanna know you can email me and I'll tell ya how.

Playboy Goes Digital

I'm sure most of you have heard that Playboy's most recent issue has nude layouts of Video Game Chicks.

I'm a little surprised that people are shocked that this would end up in Playboy. I guess people are under the misguided idea that Playboy Magazine is strictly a Porn Mag full of naked ladies. Have we forgotten they've also featured Erotic Art over the years and to feature a layout/article regarding Video Game Chicks drawn naked really is only a nod to Erotic Art and it's use in Video Games?

Maybe I'm just some kind of perv. Although, I don't plan on buying Playboy and haven't looked at one of their mags in quite sometime (I see enough naked ladies on the net, who needs magazines) but I would probably take a gander at the artwork if a copy were to be, say, laying around.

I can appreciate Art.

Every Single guy should have one of THESE for his living room and or/bedroom.

Update: I guess they deleted the post and I can't believe I didn't save a picture from this site. They were selling a Stripper Pole/Stage used by some radio station in a "Be A Stripper" contest or something... dammit.

Check out This Flash Game where the object of the game is to walk a drunk as far as you can without falling over. You have to make very mild movements with your mouse left or right depending on which way he's swaying. I tell you this because the game is in German. Although, strangely the sound effects are in english.

How bored would you have to be...

to come up with this...



Obviously THIS person was. (Sorry, the person already took down the how-to page on making one these masterpieces.) How long would have to be sitting there or how desperate to find a bra would you have to be when the light bulb came on and said "Hey, Men's Underwear would make a GREAT replacement for a BRA."

W@l-M@rt loses key battle against Quebec union

I wondered how long it would take before THIS happened to a W@L-M@rt.
When you run a business based solely on doing everything the cheapest including what you pay your employees. You don't often attract talented management teams and that is directly related to why employees decide to unionize. These decisions rarely have anything to do with rate of pay but more to do with working conditions brought on by management. When you have to put of with a shitty management it's then you realize you're not getting paid enough.

When will some companies learn this lesson? Probably Never.

Of course, if you were to point to the biggest anti-union company around you could probably easily say W@l-M@rt is it. They definitely won't go down without a fight. Although, this reminds me of the Squamish McDonald's that unionized. They decertified shortly after they certified and no contract was ever negotiated.

It shall be interesting to see...

Shoot Out at the O.K. Wedding Corral

I always hear about weddings where the families of the people getting married don't get along but it's sad when people pull out guns and knives.

Unfortunately, the RCMP haven't released too many details about this "Shoot At the Wedding Corral" so don't know if it was the actual family members, guests or even univited guests. It also never said who was killed. Hopefully it wasn't the Bride or the Groom. Hopefully, it won't lead the marriage to a quick divorce either. I wouldn't want to see how they'd decide to settle that.

The Mistrials of Justice

With the Jury Deadlocked at 11-1 the Judge declared a mistrial in Kelly Ellard case.

I'm not sure if my American Readers have heard of this case now that the Murder of Reena Virk happened 7 years ago. Ellard is lucky that society has changed into a "What's Happening Right Now" people because an old case gets blurry and facts quite often get tainted with opinion over time. This girl may well have gotten over the fact she viciously murdered another girl (both teenagers at the time) but that doesn't, and shouldn't, change the fact. You do the crime, You do the time.

I'm sure there's many people out there that would say that the story has gotten so much press now it's almost impossible to find a completely unbiased jury. Which I think is a prime example of what happened in this particular trial. I don't know about you but at the time of the murder there wasn't a lot of non-concensus amongst the teenagers who visciously attacked Virk as to who the two people who went after her again and finished the job. It's been my experience, when I was a teenager and from what I've seen of other teenagers, that when the shit hits REALLY hits the fan it's no longer time to pussy foot around and they'll send the lamb to slaughter quicker than you can say "Kelly Ellard".

I know I'm a man and I'll get lambasted for my opinion but women (especially teenaged girls) are the most viscious creatures I have ever encountered when it comes to social interaction. It's pretty much common sense knowledge with men to stay out of any type of disagreement between two women. Add to the the hormonal imbalance of a teenage girl filled with a volcanic rage for whatever reasons and you have the recipe for a dark night underneath a bridge where one teenage girl takes the life of another. The fact that she'll now have to be tried for a third time (and I really do hope that we as taxpayers here in BC take the time to spend the money to convict this danger to society) even though so much time has passed bring a shadow of doubt to my mind that justice will be served for a teenage girl who had her life cut short.

My hope for society wanes on a daily basis.

I know I was pretty stoked at picking up a Gmail account. (Once again, Thank Nero) but I stumbled across this site which is an anti-gmail site.

Personally, if you are truly worried about personal information and idenity theft etc. The Internet is probably not the place for you.

Or you could be like me and be very old school. I've almost always, at least 95%, used pseudonyms. Not only for usernames but including the personal inforamtion I fill out on other web sites. You're only as private as you allow yourself to be.

Only in Canada....

If I really thought about it there's probably a number of things I had intended to add to my diary that I decided to not post because I felt it was fluffy crap. Of course, now I have this place which is basically "Bingoguy - The Fluffy Crap." I can post all of it guilt free.

Here's more proof...
