Somebody summarize what our society would look like if we became a chip society where everyone had a chip implanted at birth that only tracked your whereabouts.

More or less crime?
A more or less happy society?

I'm kinda tempted to offer Main Event shares at like 1.5 just to see if I can get anyone to bite.

I play like 6-8 tournaments a year and haven't cashed a tournament in like a year and a half, but I had great results in 2014 so I can use that as a justification.

Supreme court will hear a nj sports gambling bill. Does this effect poker in any way? The online variety?

Elt; Braun review 2 shaves in: pretty solid shave reasonably close, fast, no skin irritation. Base cleaner handy. Haven't tried it on pubes yet. I went with series 7.

Lol at not having two separate razors for that and bigger lol if you don't buy a 15 dollar electric razor for that specifically

Still toying with the idea. Come close to pulling the trigger a few times but haven't yet. Still not sure what I'm gonna do but that's good info

Without doing any research, my recollection was that NJ was trying to introduce sports betting at their casinos but there was a federal law that made it illegal for states other than Nevada to offer sports betting, which they were arguing unconstitutionally favored one state over the other 49. Can't imagine it would have anything to do with poker.

Has anyone seen this Mike Tyson song? Somebody took all of his quotes and made a song out of it.

How much would you guys pay to never have to eat again? You could eat if you wanted to, but your body would no longer require food to function.

The money saved on food + time saved on getting food + pooping/peeing has to be in the 6 figures at least. You could probably parlay it into some angle shoots as well.

Years back I went all in on electric razors. Bought a fancy norelco and after about 2 shaves hated it. I need a closer shave to feel good, the electric kind always made me feel half-done.

would take an incredibly good product to move away from handheld

Yep. Kind of a harsh reminder that seeing a bunch of normal people naked sometimes isn't that great. I didn't see any of it this year.

If you're serious about this there are probably at least a few other shocking life revelations to be had for you if you, I don't know, pay attention.

Need a linecheck on what to wear tomorrow. Had an interview for a sales engineer position a week ago with my would be boss (he was wearing business casual). Tomorrow I'm meeting with the local rep, whom I would be working with, at Panera. I guess it's kind of an interview, but seems to be more of a meet-and-greet where she'll only have a little bit of input on me actually getting hired.

So suit and tie is overkill, right?

If it could be assumed that you're coming from or going to your current job, suit and tie is probably fine. I prefer suit no tie for informal meetups like that, but that's more personal style than based on proper attire standards.
