The bartender is mad at you for not having proper coasters at his establishment! Shame on you!

Better.... I found sampler glasses for a quarter apiece. They have really thick glass, look like they are the same ones that restaurants use for holding tea lights. I have about 18 of them, stacked up. When people come over for beer tastings, I hand em out... They really come in handy, not just...

I guess I just see the world entirely differently. There's not a single girl listed here by a guy that I would chase after if a current girlfriend of mine wanted to see me that night. Zooey Deschenal? Reese Witherspoon? Amy Adams? Honestly. No Joke. I don't even know who those girls are and...

Why do stupid people always get like that? :drunk: At least my post had more football content that yours. Whether I bet or not, as a fan of football, betting lines and spreads are somewhat interesting to me.

Well, my system is going live this week. It's on the table. I've tweaked it a bit. My picks are bolded. I also had SD -7.5 KC, but calling it after the fact ain't so impressive. I also had to buy off a line or two... cuz paying -130 seems crazy for betting on a 'dog! My picks are listed with...

I wouldn't consider counting to be a hobby really... but learning about numbers? Calculus? Stuff like that? Definitely!!!! It's addictive. It's fascinating. It's really a basic building block of reality and understanding the universe that surrounds us. Other things I've done with numbers...

This is another weird hobby of mine. Numbers! I like equations and spreadsheets, and I recently began trying to pick NFL games again at the behest of a friend. Well, I have been tweaking my old system every week. Then a couple days ago, I had a Eureka! moment. I spotted where my system was...

APA, Summer wheat, Hefeweizen, punlelweizen, BCS, Oatmeal Cookie Ale, Stout, Porter, Roasty stout, another Hefeweizen, Rye ale #1, Rye ale #2, IPA, APA #2. 13 x 5 = 65 gallons. 30,180 + 65 = 30,245

I had a similar experience last night. One of my gfs dragged me to a party where I didn't know anybody. We walked out to the back yard where the beer was, and a guy says, "What do you like to drink?" And of course, me being a bit of a connoisseur, figured it wouldn't really be polite to randomly...

Oops. Forgot to post this week. Sorry guys. My calculations for this week, against the spread, predict the following: Dollar-per-vegatables over the 6 Kings Head-butters over Jingoes Titans over Baby horses The national animals of Guyana over The Canners The UPS team over the USB Cords with...

Building an experimental airplane, flying, semi-professional chess, girls to do the dishes, motorcycling... no wait, that's transportation for me, not a hobby. Spreadsheet calculations for ridiculous things, girls to clean up my room, photography, guitars and recording, autocross, girls to do...

This time reverse it. Give him a commercial amber and tell him it's yours. Then give him yours and tell him it's the commercial one.

My system: 7 and 4 with 2 to go.

Well I picked Seattle and the 7 points, didn't win, but... Hey. Wait a sec! Who moved the line to 7.5 (or 8)? Guess that's a win after all...

It is my pick against the spread. So +2.5 is the underdog plus the points.

Alright guys.. I flipped my system to try and pick winners this week. Let's see how I do.... CAR +2.5 Indy -3 AZ +6 NO -3 CIN +2.5 NYJ +10.5 WASH +6.5 BAL +6 JAX +4 SEA +7 CHI -5.5 GB -5.5 BUFF -3.5

So in developing my system, I lost the Denver-San Diego game and the New England-Seattle game. Racking my brain now to figure out if those two games had anything unique about them, or if I just need to chalk it up to "you can't win 'em all". Any ideas? Right now, I'm at a loss to spot any...

If anyone is wondering, my 1 and 12 system this week picked Denver. So I predict San Diego.

Haha pretty much! Actually, I just mixed up my pluses and minuses. Pluses are overrateds, not outperformers. Minuses are underrateds, not busts.. as I mistakenly was thinking as I threw my predictions together. The math is consistent though. Now, to be honest, I haven't factored home field...

A buddy at work and I got to talkin about how cool it would be if you could create a system to bet on football and win with some regularity. That got me to thinking about my previous attempts to "beat the house".. none of which were decisive enough to actually get me to go forward (my best...
