Reopening fiasco?

My ass, .

It always comes down to your ass. Why is that.

LOL

See what I mean?

EB actually believes that I, an attorney,

I know you claim to be an attorney, this is the internet. You can claim to be an attorney and I can claim to beat roulette. You said in the past that I'm outright lying about that. I'm lying about it just as much as you're lying about being an attorney.

Thanks for introducing a new subject, EB, i.e. "internet credibility."

Of course we all make claims, we all say things without "proof."

It's the nature of the beast, and there's really no way arounnd it, short of ponderous citations to authority and posting of personal doumentation which anyone with a brain knows to avoid doing.

As always it is up to the reader to conclude whether the poster is truthful or not, based not on reading tea leaves or hunches but upon consideration and analysis of what they've written before and how sensible it may seem.

The message is what's important, not the poster, and it is up to us to analyze and weigh it in order to decide if it is of value or interest to us.

Like I said you claim to be a lawyer, I claim to beat roulette. I don't know if you are a lawyer, but you know for absolute certainty that I don't beat roulette.? I knew a guy years ago who went to law school for one year and then cleaned for the next 10 years he was a lawyer and people believed him. The truth is you have no idea if I beat roulette or not.

Spike, I mean EB, I read many of your posts back in the day at Gambler's Glen.

I am not a roulette player but those posters who were at the Glen pretty much uniformly hooted and jeered your claims of prowess at the roulette tables and they continuously tore you a new one.

They were unmerciful in hammering you for your failure to disclose to the group your specific system or method of play that led to your alleged vanquishing of the casinos.

Sounds a lot like what MD is doing, doesn't it?

Oh, and unlike you I didn't brag about being a lawyer in order to build myself up in the eyes of strangers: rather it is information provided to give readers some insight into how I might view, process, and filter things; it could also aid them in determining my credibility.

And you were right in there with the best of them, buddy boy. In fact you were one of the worst. So don't give me some crap about 'those posters', you were one of those posters. And I didn't go to GG to brag, I went there to see what other players knew about beating roulette and maybe pick up some tips. I had no idea that roulette supposedly could not be beaten and that I would be greeted with such hostility.

That may be, but you gave as good as you got and stuck around for quite awhile.

What, are you a masochist?

Do you enjoy being flamed and humiliated?

I learned a lot interacting with those guys, it really helped me to improve my game. I never do anything without a reason. I wanted to suck every bit of information I could out of those people and if I had to be a lightning rod to do that, so be it.

OK, I'm going to give it a rest: points were made, now I'll move on.

That number is extremely suspect.

Well, it was from the CDC, during a Whitehouse video briefing, so Yeah. You be suspicious.

"But the sad reality is that, despite our progress, we’re still losing people to this virus — which is especially tragic given, at this point, it is unnecessary and preventable. Virtually all COVID-19 hospitalizations and deaths in the United States are now occurring among unvaccinated individuals. And to be clear, there will likely continue to be an increase in cases among unvaccinated Americans and in communities with low vaccination rates, particularly given the spread of the more transmissible Delta variant.
