Default UPDATE

Just lost $300 playing online blackjack. Was playing $1 for a long time, breakeven, went nuts and started playing $25 a hand. Thanks Superior Court. (Gambling addicts always blame it on somebody else.)

Well the only correct move is to keep doubling the bet until you get it back.

$15/day?? That blows
In NY if your employer doesn't pay you it's $40 a day.

I agree.

And holy cow, I guess the Michael J. Fox comparison wasn't a joke, was it?

I'm serving jury duty in the L.A. Criminal Court right next to Judge Ito's courtroom. Jury duty sucks. I had to pay $10 to use the computer, $1.75 for a soda, and don't even get paid for the day. Thank God I believe in jury nullification or I'd be here another week maybe.
