Come to think of it, he's probably breaking the "One mammal per hand" rule.

That is too funny. Sounds like they took a loss on some free advertisement.

better person to send this to please forward it to them.

Hi, I'm Jimmy Fricke, and I took 2nd in the Aussie Millions tournament
last year and received a large amount of television coverage. I'm
coming back for all the tournaments this year, and was curious if Full
Tilt would be interested in sponsoring me in some of the events or maybe
the main event in exchange for wearing full tilt gear and maybe some
other things. I'm unaffiliated with all sites right now and I have a
bunch of friends coming to the tournament who are strong online
tournament players who also have no affiliation. Let me know if you're
interested in doing business.

Take care,
Jimmy."

I got a response a little bit later saying that they don't respond to every message about solicitations, blah blah blah, but they'll contact me if they're interested. This message just popped up in my inbox:

"Thank you for your interest in becoming a member of Full Tilt Poker.
Unfortunately FTP does not take open solicitations from players wishing to
join the team. It is an invite only process that does not have set
standards or qualifications. In the future, if we are interested in
adding you as a FTP representative we will contact you directly. We wish
you the best of luck and we hope to see you at a final table soon.

JD"

I'm like okay, whatever, I had to expect it. I peruse the rest of the email and discover that this genius had included an email that Howard Lederer sent to him regarding his final decision. This is that email:

"From: Howard Lederer
Sent: Sat 11/3/2007 7:21 PM
To: Robert H. Wolf; Ray Bitar
Cc: Jason Newitt
Subject: RE: Aussie Millions. (KMM4237266I19928L0KM)

The guy's a freak and a very weird dude. He is also quite young. I think we should stay away.

Howard

My new email address is XXXX@XXXX.com. My "tiltware.com" address will not work soon. Please update my contact info accordingly. Thanks."

It surprises me very little that Full Tilt has incompetent employees who could make this happen. Thanks Full Tilt, I won't be conducting business with you in the future even if you want me to.

My email to Howard (at his new email no less) contained the above email plus:

"You should probably tell your employees not to send out correspondence with you when they're rejecting an offer from someone. Seems like it'd be bad for business. Professionalism first, eh? Look forward to playing in your tournament."

So, to sum up.

Beat: Am a freak and a very weird dude.
Brag: Howard Lederer's email.
Variance: Pls to be signing me stars?

OBV NEED FOR REPOSTING AT THIS JUNCTURE!!! LOL

Smokers, alchoholics, gamblers, drug addicts, think they have a disease as well. Ohhh Tiger Woods likes to have sex i guess hes got a disease too.

I don't know why you keep telling me about your son I never attacked him about being fat (or about anyhting else). as I said i couldn't care less about your son. Him being fat/skinny or not growing hair is not a concern of mine. He could live to be 120 as the richist person in the world with the hottest wife and the beard of santa claus and the figure of a ballerina or he could die tomorrow. I don't know him so it makes no difference to me.

You obv dont understand. He's not saying that he's lazy therefore its a disease. He's saying he has a condition that may lead to his metabolism being slower (thus perhaps more weight gain).. it could also be something like an intestinal problem, intestines absorb nutrients, and if theres a problem, he would have less energy, thus he would gain weight, stop being so ignorant holy

Wow why are people hating on gobbo? He was born with a tumor like his mom said and that obv affected his wieght but not the person he is.Do you think people want to be born with physical or mental problems.I am a little slow went through special ed in school and stuff but what ever sorry we can't be like all you people .Person should be judged by how genuine and how they treat others ,not because of physical and other issues.They can't sometimes help that

@gobbomom,

I say this seriously, watch Fat, Sick, and Nearly Dead.. and then get jimmy to try a juice fast. It's incredible and can probably help him with his disease.

It is well known that several endocrine gland disorders are associated with obesity. I chose the term “associated” rather than “cause” since obesity can be prevented no matter what, if the individual’s caloric intake is equal to or less than caloric expenditure.

http://endodoc.org/2007/02/26/the-tw...abetes-part-3/

Obesity is not a disease, it is a CONDITION caused by eating more calories than the body needs. No one is forcing food down the pie hole of a fatbody - if they are overweight it is because they are not burning off the calories that they are ingesting. It is AS SIMPLE AS THAT.

If someone is fat, it is because they are not interested in expending the time and effort to NOT be fat.

Someone with "lower metabolism" simply needs to EAT LESS, or more correctly, eat a diet that provides what their body needs in terms of nutrients, and eliminate un needed calories.

PERIOD.
