Default Booking Bets
My girlfriend called me this afternoon. Told me to bet the 2 and the 8. $10 a piece.

Did I do it? No

Do I owe her over $500?

Yes.

Oh yeah, everyone is a Caps fan again. The avatars came right down when they were down 3-1 against the S.hitty Rangers. Sure!

that's very funny. i have them up off and on all year. i took them down to put up the derby trophy. been a fan for 30-odd years.
and i was ticked about missing most of the game today. was on call and had to drive a three hour round trip for a ten minute fix. had to listen on the radio.

Leave now, she will hold this against you for the rest of your life. Always making you feel/look like a schmuck in front of family and friends, because you (Mr. Horseracing know it all) didn't want to waste the 20 bucks on what his girlfriend (who probably doesn't know the difference between a filly and a colt) wanted a bet a 19-1 and a hopeless 50-1 shot (she probably like the name or something). And of course $103.20 later we know what the story is.
Run for the hills!

Karma will remember this for the rest of your life. I would give up gambling and not go out in the rain again.

YOU SHOULD OF PAYED THE WOMAN.

Yes.
Is she the "one"? If not this would be as good a time as ever to ditch her.
