I started to watch it just after you recommended it but I guess I wasn't in the right mood and stopped watching it after about 5 minutes. I think what threw me was the over the top comedy aspect of it. I am hoping to get into the right frame of mind for it so that I can give another go.

Best, TP.

No worries.
I struggled with it too but I pressed on because of how many positive reviews it has.
Truth be told, I watched about 30 minutes that first night and finished it a few days later when I was ready for it.
It deals with the big question of: Does God or the Afterlife Exist?
It is certainly a difficult movie to watch from start to finish.

How about your thoughts on the recent Elon Musk podcast with Joe Rogan?
I'm just impressed that someone like Elon Musk would sit down with Joe Rogan for over 3 hours just shooting the breeze drinking whiskey.
It makes me think of Howard Hughes but I don't recall him giving up his time for such entertainment.
Joe Rogan gets some heavy hitters sometimes.
Kind of Impressive.

Monet, I have not listened to this podcast. I am not a regular listener of Joe's podcasts. Thanks for bringing it to my attention, I'll give it a go:

Speaking of podcasts Monet, here is a podcast reco:

I listened to the podcast, and for sure I think it helped secure Elon as a guest knowing going in that a lot of the podcast would consist of extolling and talking about Tesla products and projects that Tesla/Elon is involved in (Joe saying "The world needs a lot more Elon Musks" will help ensure that Joe has future appearances from him for huge viewership numbers). You probably noticed Elon ducked the question about how long it would take to establish a presence on Mars. If Joe wanted to get cute he could have brought up the EM drive (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EmDrive) in regards to getting to Mars in the near future since this supposedly doesn't require a conventional propulsion system to generate thrust (i.e., it violates the laws of physics). Personally I think the EM Drive is bunk, but it would have been interesting to get Elon's reaction to this since a lot of his ideas are Pie in the Sky, including colonizing Mars IMHO (he probably would have gotten onto the subject of alternative propulsion systems which would have gotten interesting while saying the EM drive is bunk). Anyway, I think it is important to have Pie in the Sky ideas to advance technology, so it comes with the territory. So overall it was a solid episode with a lot of interesting engineering, physics and general science concepts being clearly fleshed out (it was nice to see that he wasn't pushing herbals and drugs as much as usual) - thanks again for the reco.

Thanks for the thoughts!

Now onto hockey, hockey, hockey, hockey... hockey.

This is a Hail Mary Bomb.
Has no chance of winning but fun if it does.
I'm gonna parlay the two puck line dogs.
Not gonna hit but pays good if it does.

Boston -1.5 +145
Blues -1.5 +195

Probably bet 200 or 300.

I may even get cute and parlay the over/over.

[monet]

Back In Action!

2 Team Parlay
Bruins -1.5 +140
Blues -1.5 +190
$200 to win $1192

2 Team Parlay
Bruins/Blues Over -120
Blues/Coyotes Over +105
$100 to win $275

If both lose this will knock be down to +$3000 dollars.
But if I win!

My first instinct was Bruins & Blues. I mean the Blues can’t lose 4 in a row right?
Then I got scared off the side, or at least STL. I did like both overs so you gave me enough bias confirmation to fire.

3 Teamer

Bruins ov 5.5 -120
Blues ov 5.5 +101
Bucks +2.5 -112

Agreed.
If I wasn't such a little girl I would fire 500 to 1000 at the Blues Puck Line Straight Bet.
No need to go off the rails... at least not yet but I predict it is coming for me.

I'm back on the parlay train today. Just fired on this three teamer.

Pens ML -110
Jets In Reg. -155
Vegas -1.5 +108

Hard to get off this train once you get on.
All Aboard!

Here is a few hours of the start of my day.
I figured I better play some VP as I have been slacking off.
I go in and play some 5 dollar BP and get up 1100 but cash out up 750.
I go over and play some 10 Dollar DB because why not?
I end up getting stuck, of course and switch to BDW.
The voices in my head told me to.
Last time they said that I went on a tear making 5 sets of Aces and a bunch of quads/babies.
Not very fun making all those hands on that game.
Anyways, I pumped it up to almost even with 3 quick hands.
2 straight flushes and a 5 ball.
Thankfully the picture at the bottom of this post was dealt to me.
They didn't even let me draw to it, they just gave it to me.
I played a bit more making another 500 or so and proceeded to the book to bet like the little woman that I am.
Not bragging, just sharing.
Actually, still down about 8k from my 30k spiral.

No, you are not bragging by any means and I think other members also appreciate it. Actually, it is a breath of fresh air reading about the positive and negative side of someone who is battling in the trenches. Who the fuck wants to read about some insecure Baccarat phenomenon who never loses and collects Rolexes and little bottles of ketchup. Of course, Monet if you wanted to treat yourself you could purchase this toy.

Just fired on this 4 teamer.
I know it's a long shot (+936) but it's fun.

Jets -1.5 +105
Vegas in reg. -130
Leafs ML -140
Flames ML -150

Redietz can shove it up his ass.
Not like he helps anyone unless they subscribe and pay for his picks.

I bet a 3 Teamer for 75 dollars.
Jets -1.5 +105
Leafs -1.5 +188
Knights -1.5 +138

I also bet a 2 Teamer for 625 dollars.
Knights -1.5 +138
Jets -1.5 +105

I'm not doing very good right now but my Mental Bets are Crushing.
Not sure why St. Louis couldn't of given the Bruins one of those Empty Netters last night?
May the Better Man Win.

Bet More Win More!

2 Team Parlay
Leafs -1.5 +180
Tampa -1.5 +170

That’s big time Monet. Good luck!

[monet]

TILT

[monet]

Still up 1200.
I’ll blow that later.

[monet]

You think losing 2600 dollars in the last couple of days is going to stop me?
I don't think so.
I can't wait to load up against Ottawa and give Toronto a chance at redemption.
Toronto plays Ottawa three games in a row on the 15th, 17th and 18th.
You tell 'em I'm Coming...

[dannyj]

Last minute bet on Capitals +110.

Probably one to bet against.

[monet]

Not even sure what I bet.
If I remember correctly, I just asked the ticket writer to give me some computer picks.
They obliged...

[monet]

LOL... could of been worse.
At least the Nashville Game was Postponed so I get most of my money back.
I lose about a hundred on the day but nothing for my coin in which is really why Reels/VP is so much better.
See You Soon MotherFucking Ottawa.
