weekly




Dear Reader,

I mentioned to Vortran that it was time for a vacation, and he said "Where are we going?" And I replied, "Not we, I mean me." Jeeze! The guy runs off of a battery pack; what the hell does he need a vacation for? Besides, the little guy is getting on my nerves, so I probably need a break from him. He's always sitting there staring at me, and robots like him don't blink -- it gets a little creepy sometimes. Anyway, Italy here I come! And my laptop is staying at home with my little robot buddy. See ya in a couple of weeks y'all!

Fleetingly yours,

Bryan

  • WORD FROM THE MEISTER
    THIRD STONE FROM THE SUN
    I hope those of you living in Europe and Africa took the time out yesterday to check out the passing of Venus before the sun. It received quite a bit of press mainly because of it being a rare occurrence; it happens only twice every 120 years. Some astronomers have waited all their lives to see this. Before yesterday, no one alive had seen it - and only a few photographs existed. Now the web (the astronomy community in particular) is all the buzz with photos being uploaded, downloaded, emailed and shared.

    Yesterday in the forum I was sharing experiences on my observances, and one member, sw2003, observed how small it was (Venus). And it is small, almost the size of the earth, about 7575 miles in diameter compared to our 7926 miles, but the distances between things in space are mind boggling. I dug up some figures to reflect this:

    If the sun were the size of a large beach ball (about 26 inches in diameter) Venus would be about the size of a very small pea and be about 56 meters away from this beach ball. Look out your window and envision this. Earth would be about the same size as Venus and be about 80 meters away.

    Jupiter, the largest planet, would be the size of a tangerine and be about 400 meters away. Pluto, the smallest and furthest planet would be the size of a small ball bearing and would be about 1.75 miles from our sunny beach ball.

    If the sun were the size of an orange, the closest star would be about the same size and 1000 miles away. And this orange you can see at night, but the light from this orange takes about 4.5 years to get to you.

    Get this, if the Earth's orbit was reduced to the size of a dime. Earth would be microscopic, and the sun would be the size of a grain of sand. Our neighbor Sirius, the brightest star in the winter months, would be another grain of sand three miles away. And figuring there is a grain of sand for every cubic mile, that's a lot of empty space.

    What has this got to do with online casinos? Not much, but it's good to think about how we are just space dust. Really. And maybe some of the crap you get so upset about isn't so important after all. And it's good to think about this sort of stuff so your brain doesn't turn to mush.

    By the way, you can check out a couple of photos I posted in our forum here.

    Miss out my AAAA at VP
     
    You won't believe this. I was playing VP at Intercasino today. I got 3 Aces and was interrupted by something and forgot to "hold", then I hit "draw" and another Ace shows up.... @#$%&*#$

    I forgot they don't autohold for you.
    Anybody else seriously screw up lately? Check it out here.

    Complaints? Kudos? Please let me know.
