    I am looking for a script of Macbeth online so I can begin work on redesigning it as Blackbeth, the brother misled by his three biatches.

    Also listening to This.

    No I don't work at a bank...Oh you mean a National Holiday like the 4th of July. No. I'm just an IT guy doing nothing waiting for something to break down.

    Checking the odds on American Footall futures. Minnesota Vikings are at 25 -1 on paddypower.com and Vegas has them at 17-1. Might be a good bet there.

    Gambling is not legal in every state. I think NYC has OTB betting but not bookmakers. You'd have to find them at the local pub, etc. The same is true with all states except New Jersey and Las Vegas. Most of the betting of not related to cards/slots, etc. is done off-shore or through Vegas.

    Any of the big casinos in Vegas will post odds. But you need an account and a local to place the bets otherwise you're betting off-shore.

    Vikings have no chance next season, Chargers are worth a punt though. 22-1 with Paddies.

    You can't really buy a gun over the counter there is a waiting period (7 days). But you can buy a shotgun/rifle over the counter.

    I'll give you LT...but he's not enough. It's a long season and they'll be playing a tougher schedule this year. Not that pansy-ass line-up from last year.

    You say that like it's perfectly okay, do you not think that is wrong?
