    Oh no!!!!!!!

    Anyways, Pesci was loveable in that movie with Brendan Fraser et el.? Was called, "With Honours"????

    He was a homeless a man who taught a Harvard group of students abt humanity, the essence of life, etc before he died of a terminal illness. I thought it was a superb movie with a nice message, Pa!!

    really? That sounds good! I"ve never seen it. but...a homeless guy teaching in one of the best uni's in the world?

    The Casino was screaming, attractive, well equipped blonds were stroaking Jack's hair. Jack felt a 2 small twitches coming from the little gadget strapped to his thigh, signalling him to favor small cards. 8)
    Back after a while...

    Jack knew what he was getting into already he knew of their expressions when they were losing or winning. "At this rate w'ell be playing till sun up!" that was Randy's subtle threat to dare anyone to up him on his bet...it also meant that he had gone breaking up debts...and debtors for that fact...

    The next hand was delt. He had two pair; aces and eights. Randy raised. When the bet came to him, he raised as well. Eyebrows shot up and hands became folded. It was him and Randy now. Randy smiled.
    "Since you think so much of your hand, why not up the stakes?" he asked.
    "Why not?" Jack replied, trying to keep back a grin. His hand dropped casually beneath the table and an ace of spades slid out of his sleeve...

    Uhm guys? I'm afraid I have to sit this one out! I don't know anything abt cards except the fact that there are 52 of them in a pack???? That too I learned it in Maths class, during Probabilities lesson!!!

    Surya - The homeless man was not teaching in "With Honours"!! He was the one who held on to the thesis of one of the students which had fallen thru the gutter. Pesci's character in fact was reading the papers when Brendan Fraser's character was hunting for the lost manuscript! Talk abt making friends in low places, Pa!!

    Ditto Pa...I also know just that much about cards, and thanks to Probabilities lesson in Maths!!!

    Glad to find a kindred soul!
    When we stop labouring under the delusion of our cosmic self-importance, we are free of hindrance, fear, worry and attachment. We are liberated!!!

    Niro: Absolutly love the New Avatar. Are u going to keep this one for more than 30 mins?

    aww.... No one is participating!! Ok ok....I'll try my best to keep my guns empty on this one, I hope that C-Man will too. Notice how we never write these stories in first person format?

    Here goes:
    I was doing push-ups in my room when the phone rang on the day that started it all. I didn't answer, that was my mistake. I missed the warning. The last notice for me to pay my rent.

    Next. 8)
    Back after a while...
