"We got to gifts I've gotten from hookers."

Hell and Heartaches

You play in a casino, you should know "Play void on all Malfunctions". So the casino doesn't necessarily owe anything... It's just the rule if you choose to play in a casino, don't like it, don't play.

That said.... She should take it to court, or get the lottery guy or whatever they have in colorado, because it's a ton of cash, and you never know what a judge would rule.

EDIT: First!! God... I am a degenerate...

That rule's new to me, but I just found it funny Mr. Gambling called The Gaming Commission 'The Lottery Guy or whatever.'

Look, there are disclaimers and signs posted at gambling establishments. I went went to Vegas to fuck off right before I deployed to Afghanistan. Every card game table had a sign that had a message amounting to "These are the rules and if shit happens, too fucking bad....move along". The machines each had a similar sign glued to it. All malfunctions were handled according to a strict protocol that mostly favored the house. Too fucking bad. Don't like it? Go down the road to another place that doesn't give a fuck about you. It's understood.

That being said, if the machine is displaying bullshit then the house has some sweet talking to do to now disappointed patron. It isn't as though they can't make the customer immediately happy in some fashion, especially if it involves alcohol and immediate distractions. Besides, look for the fucking sign on the machine that says something to the effect of "The most money this machine will give you is *****" and the argument is finished. Machines fuck up. Their 1s and 0s get scrambled and suddenly HUAR goes to stage 3. People getting screwed in casinos, elevators eating passengers, cash registers giving wrong change...... chaos!!

What am I a doctor? Nah... I'm an idiot gambler. I don't need to pretend I am smart by knowin tings like words and stuff.

I love how people justify misdeeds by pointing to disclaimers and going, "look, see the sign says its okay for us to screw you out of what we owe you".

But then again, Casinos are run by crooks and mobsters anyway, unless you are on an indian reservation.

I didn't know how to use the KATG iphone app, so I just started hitting buttons. Now it just told me I won $912,283! Where's my money?

According to Forbes Sandra Bullock's net worth is about $85 million and James' $100-120ish million.

Keith and Chemda seem to think Hawaii is some third world country, even though they have never been there. We have world class restaurants - some of the finest in all of the pacific. We have five-diamond and five-star resorts, multi-million-dollar homes, one of the premiere oceanography programs in the world, home to one of the biggest NASA telescopes in the world on the Big Island, and two of the most prominent high schools in the country - Kamehameha and Punahou (where Obama graduated from). In fact, when I moved from Hawaii to CA in 5th grade, I had already completed the 6th grade curriculum before I moved, so my school agreed to let me skip 6th grade and go straight to 7th. Hawaii's public schools, at least at the time, were strict, but great. Hawaii may be slower in pace because you have no choice - you're on an island, for chrissakes - but we are in no way backwards. Every culture has their people who are exceptional and people who just don't give a shit and live to survive. Hawaii is no exception.

Also, when I said I submitted the lyrics to "The Thunder Rolls," it was in 93, the height of the Garth Brooks era, and my teacher was 75 and didn't know better. It was in CA, not Hawaii. It wasn't stupidity, it was laziness. I had better things to do at the time than write a poem.

Do you have an indoor ski resort?
