Sportsbank,

I never doubted that REALITY ran a profitable book for 2 yrs. It's just that I simply couldn't care less. A ceritfied audit? Showing what? That his shop was profitable?

LOL- and what would is his point about me "bringing Scotty"? What is Scotty going to say? We would listen to the mysterious "book owner" say that REALITY ran a good shop, monetarily speaking. Scott would then lean across the table and say, "did you hear that, Kosar?"

And I highly doubt that Lefty (the man who Scotty inherited his job from) could be bothered to be uprooted from his cushy life that he has down here running his nephews restaurant and playing with his web-site to fly out to Vegas just so he could add ,"yeah, did you hear that, Kosar".

What it all boils down to is that MOST people don't care and aren't impressed that somebody ran a profitable shop for 2 yrs. And only the most obtuse would take this 'challenge' as evidence that somebody 'walks the walk'.

For a guy none of you liked, you can't
seem to stop checking in on his thread,
even after he's long gone. Let the
feeding frenzy continue though.
I've said all I have to say on this
subject, "obtuse" and all.

Reno,

If you think reality had a beef with you, I'm going to be all over you like Oprah on a honeyglazed ham if you keep slagging carageenan. I lived on an island for ten years where carageenan, or of course the Irish Moss from which it is derived, was the lifeblood of the economy.

But for carageenan, i never would have been able to go to school. And I'll have you know grade five was the three best years of my life. Expanded my mind just like carageenan expands ice cream.

I bid you GOOD-DAY, sir.

Shawn, I've got absolutely nothing against seaweed (carrageenan, algae, or irish moss). However,just as I refuse to eat hots dogs tht have "homogenized skins" as an ingredient, I assiduously avoid carrageenan in my ice cream. Carrageenan gives ice cream a disgusting "chewy" texture. And the worst ice cream offender, in my opinion, is Starbucks. If I wanted "chewy" ice cream, I'd chew gum while I ate the stuff.

I've got to say that I'm deeply offended that you would even question my true love of seaweed. Your questioning my love of seaweed is tantamount to, well, someone questioning Reality's bookmaking ability. In fact, to demonstrate how much I really love seaweed, I'm going to issue you a $10,000 challenge. I'll bring my two closest friends, Flower and Lovebead, and they'll substantiate that I consume at least 2 ounces of Super Blue-Green Algae everyday. Also, I'll bring receipts, detailing my monthly expenditures for the product. Come on, big guy, if you're so sure that I'm hurting the seaweed industry, back your accusations, which threaten my reputation in this forum, with cash! In the mean time, while you're mulling over the challenge, I've got to go chow-down on some Algae.

Forget it, Reno.

That challenge is too subjective.

couple of rivers here Reno could swim around with his mouth open in to show his dedication to blue-green algae consumption...

Well, what is really funny is that even though I read every one of those stupid posts I didn't until now know what was the Reality-Reno challenge.

So a bookmaker made an even money bet that his shop made money over a two year period - what a joke! It takes a pretty bad BM not to make some kind of profit.

Oh well, I hope I didn't stir up the hornets nest again
