sundevil777 94 #1 November 1, 2012 I don't know if it is legal, but I thought there might be some that would like to put some money on the line...not that I have a lot of it to bet, others might? How about it? Some are so confident, will they show that confidence by putting down some money? Perhaps some non-monetary wagers would be another option.People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
