Hey, mister! Find the black card, win 200 plat! Five plat a game!
The kid showed him the ace of spades, flipping it over, between two other cards, face down. The man, in a sharp business suit and fedora, gladly pitched in the five plat. Youre on, kid. Get the money ready.
A clink of coins onto the table, and the boy deftly started to...

Clink.
The platinum coins skipped across the top of the growing pile of metal in the middle of the table. Two men had already lost their shirts in this hand, along with their watches, guns, a horse, and one cybernetic left arm. They both sat watching the remainder of the hand intently, their attentions only split between the game, which would decide who walked away...

I need to write something witty and satirical. I haven't done that recently. I feel a void coming from my lack of sarcasm in writing that I need to fill. I'm suffering here.

Now, just a topic. If you're reading this, feel free to help out. I won't pay you, or anything, but just know that you're helping a poor soul in need of biting...

I think it a bit odd that just about all of the people who wished me a happy birthday are either on my AIM buddy list, or are members of this site.

Keep in mind that I still live with my parents, and maybe you'll see why this sort of thing comes as a bit of a shock. After all, my parents were there when...

Ignore any political ranting from me, I tend to change my political views every twenty minutes. I'm also quite insane, but that's neither here nor there.

In short, yesterday's little outburst will probably happen again, but pay no real heed to it.

I need to sleep a little more than I do, I think.

Politics blows anyway. Not like any of the politicians are out...

Have you ever heard the words "Rudolph Giuliani did a good job as mayor of NYC" or "George Bush has done a great job running the country" without hearing, directly afterwards, the words "after September 11"?

And yet, people are saying that he's a great President, or a great mayor. What? Is our collective memory that bad?

Have we forgotten that, before September 11th, 2001,...

See, living with your parents does have its advantages.

Like when your sister, who never finishes medication like she should, leaves an entire week's worth of antibiotics and decongestant in the cabinet from the last time she was sick.

Nothing makes one feel better about not having medical insurance than free drugs.

This sucks. This really really sucks. I hate being sick, and I hate being cursed with a really weak immune system. Worst of all, I hate not having medical insurance. Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck.
