Well Jesus DID tell Lazarus to come fourth.Big Grin


Here in Australia,every major city has a legal casino. Poker machines are legal in most pubs and clubs,

I can accept casinos, I guess,especially when they have good cheap meals because I don't gamble,ever.However,in my opinion, poker machines are the most insidious form of gambling ever invented,because they work on the powerful psychological principle of intermittent reinforcement. I consider them (on our scale) to be a social evil.
