    Holy crap! Are you from Ingersoll or something?

    I think Tom's theory is he paid for that education so he's gonna damn well use whether we like it or not......

    I believe this has been hashed to death and I"m not going down that road again.
  • Well actually - the bank paid for it - I am more in the process of paying for it :D

    I would agree that this has been "hashed to death" - You can imagine my surprise to see this post at the top this morning.

    Not that I am opposed to the occasional debate :)

    So let us dissect.

    1. If you could please show, citing examples, where I desperately cling to the illegality of poker clubs.

    If you can do so convincingly I will respond to your accusation.

    OK Professor, I'll start off by saying that if you are suggesting my conversation double spaced with a title page and footnotes - you are bogging down the topic needlessly. I'm not specifically centered on your responses, simply discussing my take on the thrust of this debate.
    If it is your intention that I humbly and formally beg Your Grace's audience with a series of lovely citations of your blessed word, I'll beg mercy on this mental pauper, as my only response is- go pound salt- (OK, there ARE several other response options, but thats the nicest)

    Is it possible Sir-That the points I made are general; but still valid and perhaps worth discussing? In lieu of actually responding to anything I said, you seem to have launched a defense...does this mean you have nothing to contribute?

    I trust that this has been submitted in the proper format for your valued consideration at this time.
    Long Live TNorth!

    Your humble admirer,

    OK, I think we're even. Let me know if you still feel superior, I can call you ...I dunno.... a jerk-wad, or a conservative...maybe a member N'Sync..whatever it takes to get your ego in check.


    In all seriousness, I was not attacking you specifically in my first post, simply taking a different position. The college bit was intended to be tongue in cheek, since I personally would rather poker clubs not be legalized. (as I mentioned) I don't doubt your intelligence and look forward to reading your responses. Lastly a question; Are you then calling for a selective amount of reason free from passion? Who decides the balance?

    Forgive me for beating a dead horse, its all new to me and I'm sincerely interested.
  • Wow..

    If Metro was feeling superior... it's a first considering his poker game... :)
