From the beginning. The history of the lottery is littered with the bodies of former winners who were bankrupted or, worse, murdered by friends and family.

I'm sure that part hasn't changed, but with credit cards it's difficult to tell when the manager / owners are stealing from the pot too.

That begs the question of who gets what when tips are distributed. Not only is the tip system somewhat unfair to patrons by asking them to subsidize the restraunt's payroll (instead of building the proper overhead into prices), is a completely opaque process that doesn't particularly reward good service or punish bad service.

Why don't you know about?

Why what?

I am not a mod. I've just been helping with the reorganization.

I'll bite on this one. Why exactly are you asking about the size limits? As far as consistency, I get what you're saying: the truth is, we were still operating the literal free-for-all that Luuv has originally designed. There was no consistency because nothing existed to create that consistency - there weren't any written rules, there wasn't any organization or operational structure other than the folders themselves, and there wasn't nearly enough moderation to enforce "local rules" in a reliable way. We're in the process of putting things into place that make for more uniform action, but we're almost starting from scratch.

It was way too huge. I'm sure this thread will get much of the same drama, but at least it's more manageable.

I haven't actually played baseball in forty years either, but that's not a bad idea.

Of course I know how to computer, why do you ask?

Naturally

The same way he always gets his news....

Lol. The one time I got to go to old Yankee Stadium, I was surprised how laid back it was. Of course, it might have been because they lost to the Angels.

The issue always is there are too many other dumb fucks on your team so you only get part of the rules.

I got hella bored playing pee wee. Like the ball never came my way ever.

See, now I want to go play catch with someone. Really, it was probably a dumb thing to buy, but there's something about a baseball glove that's kind of alluring. It's something that when it's on your hand you feel a sense of anticipation.

Rawlings website has all these different products you can use, and I have no idea if any of it is worthwhile.

Oh, no, I plan to use it. That got worded oddly, but the thing is too expensive to just be a souvenir.

So, I took my little bro to the All Star Game this week. At the convention center, there's a fan event before the actual game, so we decided to make a day of it and head downtown to look around before heading up the hill. Like most of these events, its really just waiting in line to get a signature, participation stuff, like virtual batting cages and museum displays, and buying overpriced shit. Well, I being the sucker I am, I happened across a Rawlings booth where they were selling baseball gloves and they had this special commemorative infielder's glove for sale. It has to have been like thirty years since the last time I bought a glove, and the last one was already pretty soft as it was. This thing is so stiff it barely flexes. Fortunately (or unfortunately) I wasn't in a seat that was remotely close to any foul balls, so I mostly spent the game squeezing my new souvenir in one hand and taking pictures of the LA skyline with the other. Afterward, though, I got to thinking that maybe now would be a good time to actually break in the glove properly. I know that there's the whole thing about wrapping the glove around the balls and tying it up. Is there something else I should be doing (beside, obviously, actually using it)? Is there like a special oil or something I should be putting on it?

I wouldn't put that on your resume, but good.

Well, boxer briefs don't cut into you like TWs tend to do.

Boxer briefs aren't free flowing. Regular boxers are free flowing.

I always felt like TWs gave more support, but I prefer boxer briefs now.

I get your point, but Walker is so mentally damaged he doesn't really have the ability to adapt his campaign like Oz might. Those gaffes don't just go away on their own and PR crew can only do so much when the candidate himself isn't particularly capable.
