Friday June 26th, clock starts at??? And ends on sunday July 26th at the same time it started.. correct??

How many days will you be out of town? And are the 39 hours for your work week a minimum requirement??

I'm just covering bases too on this to see time for work, sleep, vacation, etc.

It would start I'm going to say at 7:00 pm Friday June 26th and end July 26th at 6:59 pm. I'm not committed to Friday though, I may choose to start it a couple days before or after. I'll give an exact starting time by the end of the night.

My typical schedule is work 9:45-6:00 MTuThF, and 9:45-5:00 Saturday. We can make 39 minimum hours of work a requirement if you like but I don't think it's necessary. I pretty much don't get days off unless I request way in advance. At best I usually switch days off. Next week for example I have Tuesday off instead of Wednesday.

I have softball Monday nights from 6:00-9:00. This upcoming Monday is an exception and there is always a chance of being cancelled for rain. The last game is schedule for 7/20/15.

I intend on going out of town July 3rd after work and coming home in the evening on the 5th.

This bet only accounts for live cash game hours. I don't intend on playing any tournaments during the bet unless I'm way ahead of pace and think I can afford to spend the hours.

I'll make a Twitter account logging my progress with a picture of my start and end session.

I will throw in the $1,500 profit caveat though if it gets me action. I will be playing 100% 1/2 for this bet.

Will you be using any vacation time during the 30 days?

What's your min bet?

Vacation will be included in the 30 days. In other words, this is basically a 27 day bet because there's almost no chance I play on the days of July 3rd-5th. Min bet is $50. I'll go as high as $500.

And if you mean official vacation time for work Frank, the answer is no. I am guaranteeing I spend at least 39 hours a week at work (aside from the 7 hours I miss on July 4th since we're closed, but it's not like I'll be playing during that time anyway).

There's been a few carjackings in the GT structure over the years. A few armed robberies too.

We should point out that this happens in all big cities and not just at casino parking structures. Although robberies at casino parking structures would not be surprisingly higher than church parking structures.

Just want you guys to see how few items are coming with to Detroit. Would love some recommendations on places we can go for furniture as well as mattress shopping and clothes shopping. Do you guys have a big mall similar to Mall of America?

Nope. We have Art Van or Gardner White lol. No big malls like Mall of America.

Where exactly did you decide you were going to live?

Well you are probably 20 minutes or so from any mall type shopping center. There is an ikea in Canton.

Ha we have no idea yet. Was planning on doing some research tonight on rink rentals. I'm guessing you can help out with that?

There's a mall on 14& John R, Macy's, Sears, JC Penny, etc etc about 20 minutes north. Mattress shops all over Royal oak and there might be something in the 14 & John R area too.

Some fancy new big name designer just got a shop on Woodward if you like spending stupid money on clothes.
