Hey Steve, what a story! However, to be honest with you, I'm more than a bit disapointed. Years ago, when I worked for Union Carbide, we played poker in the lunch room. We played for quarters, except when old man MeKeehan sat in we played dimes (he was born in Scotland). Anyways, one day a young fellow joined, and he opens right up with a $10 bill!!! We all walked away and I ended up quiting 3 years later. The moral is, you cannot start right off with a topper, an unbeatable story. How can the next fellow compete? It is unfair. It's not right. It is not American. It is not Austrailian (though it may be English). I ask you to re-read the forum rules and refresh your mind with International Law. It may not hurt to have another read of the 10 Commandments either. I HAD a good story, not great like yours, mind you. But still, it was pretty good. About a drunk Irishman (if you can imagine) and his pet bear which he trained to remove overburden with those giant paws. They hit a marvelous paystreak on a Frazier River gravel bar, but then the bear came into heat and.......well, but forget it now, you won't be hearing my .25 cent tale now that you opened with that 10 spot. Sorry, but that's life. best regards always, RockChuk PS...were there actually any in there? And if so where could one buy such a machine?
