    Alcoholism: Retreat from the real world.
    Life on the Rails: Retreat from the real world.
    Living in Montana: Sorry, retreat from the real world. My little city here has almost as many people as Montana's biggest city.
    Playing slot machines: Retreat from the real world. Check out "Addiction by Design" by Natasha Dow Schull.

    These are all isolationist strategies, mickey. All ways to retreat from actual interaction with people and the real world. All ways of numbing yourself to people around you. Also, all ways to avoid being evaluated and measured by others. You exist in your own little world, and you can make whatever things up regarding that world. No third parties evaluating you. You avoid people. You avoid oversight. You live in whatever fantasy world you claim.

    "Gambling for a living" suggests that you have tax returns demonstrating that. Do you? Because if you do not, you are major-league bullshitting once again. I "gambled for a living," and filed as such, maybe three times in my life. I've also filed as a proprietor, a partner, and a corporation. How have you filed, mickey?

    You don't know it but you exposed yourself. 2K a month in Social Security says everything about how much money you've made in your life. 2K a month says you made way way under 50K a year.

    Someone who has as much knowledge as you say you have, and spent 40 years betting sports, should be a multi-millionaire today. Are you a multi-millionaire? No, you're a small timer. A scuffler.

    So you worked for Billy Walters for 4 moths. If a gambler has to work for somebody else it means they ain't much of a gambler. Ask your boss for a 50 cent an hour raise.

    Advertising for investors in sports betting says you didn't have a bankroll. You probably had a boiler room like Steve Stevens. You broke all the investors then blew the money on degenerate gambling.

    You live in a shack. Can't pay the property tax. Can't afford to invite anyone to more than a cup of coffee or a piece of pie. Broke ass loser.

    You are what AP's call a POSER PRO.

    And you are right. There are a lot more of you hillbillies in Tennessee than Montana. How long were you and your sister married?

    A forum mod named Mike
    Barred all that he didn't like
    When suspension was done
    It seems just for fun
    He'd ignore them while riding his bike

    This is why I quit there YEARS ago.

    If something is a hassle/problem? Simply walk away (problem solved).

    This is the second time recently that the Wiz and his merry men have fallen asleep at the "Unsuspend" switch; I should have been reinstated today but again no joy.

    What a way to run a railroad.

    They Unsuspended you yesterday. :) Speaking of extended WOV Suspensions, I sent Poker Grinder an unsolicited PM thinking he was going to HELP me when I was Blackjackpro, and instead, he read the PM and reported it. I was Suspended for supposedly sending a bunch of people unsolicited PMs. I only sent Poker Grinder one unsolicited PM, not a bunch of unsolicited PM. My Suspension was originally a three day Suspension. On the fourth day, Maxpen said something like,"I'm sure Blackjackpro enjoys still being suspended on day four of a three day Suspension."

    The mods were like,"We're doing some investigation, Blackjackpro will have to be patient." More days passed and I was still Suspended (This was only supposed to be a three day Suspension)I fully expected to be reinstated soon and get an apology for the extended Suspension. Instead, I got a permanent banning for being Nathan (I never confessed to being Nathan until AFTER I was already banned as Blackjackpro)and never got reinstated. Ouch. I never should have sent Poker Grinder that stupid unsolicited PM. I don't know why I thought Poker Grinder was going to feel SORRY for me and help me out. If anything, I should have went to an Admin for help, NOT Poker Grinder.
