    That's right. I am ahead in my poker life. Yeah, swallow that. I am up (hold your breath) sixty dollars. I played for two weeks in Vegas at the Maxim Casino (long, long ago) and I dragged myself from the tables with a $60 win. That was the hardest $60 I ever won. But I have to say I did play properly.

    Now you'll assume that it was all skill, and that you can win $60 in 2 weeks work any time you want. :)

    Douglas, I was kidding. I played every day and barely won. I'd never do that again. You do make a good point though. Most degenerate gamblers won their first time out.

    Ask most visitors returning from Vegas or any gambling meca, how they did and they might say: "I hit two $1000 slot jackpots, it was a blast."

    "But how did you do?"

    "You mean overall?"

    "Yes, did you continue to win, or what?"

    "Naw, I gave it all back and about $500 more, but WE HAD FUN!"

    Are there specific skills or knowledge areas you're interested in acquiring from us, given your already impressive skill set?
