If you were a teen in the 80s like me then you probably remember the short-lived sketch comedy series, Fridays, on ABC. Although it only lasted two seasons, it left an indelible impression on my young brain.
Sadly, a DVD release of those two seasons is reportedly held up by Michael Richards. Luckily, YouTube has most of their great sketches including the ones I’ve included below the fold: Continue reading →
Prior to choosing the bestiPhone online casino, you must consider a number of factors that determine the ultimate outcome. The most important one is that there are no more games, so you are guaranteed that the jackpot will be one of the highest you can find. If the jackpot is a great value, then we are talking about a true money making opportunity.
What Are the Top Online Casino Games? All online casinos offer something, the important thing is that there are a variety of options to suit your preference and budget, for example, if you are a fan of sports betting, then FanDuel is the website for you. A lot of people just want to try out a couple of games for a few hours and when the casino is not hosting a major game in any way, they will end up losing a lot of money.
You will have to make some adjustments based on how many times you can play a particular game and how much money you want to save up. A great option for a relatively low budget is to play a few games of blackjack with a lower rate than your other gaming options. I would highly recommend this option since casinos don’t typically offer you more than one time per day per device so it will give you the opportunity to play more often. Another way to stay safe is to use a burner device. A burner is just any portable computer that is easily taken into a casino with. It is perfect for gaming at a slower rate. Just make sure to have someone at your gaming table with you so that you are able to retrieve your device if it gets lost. A great option for a burner is your computer if you are at home. It will be a very cheap device to buy. There are many brands of cell phones that are great to use for gaming. You can find the latest technology that the cell phone manufacturers are using at electronics stores. All the phones are very small, you can actually fit a normal size computer in there. In addition to gaming, you should also be sure that you are using the right kind of casino game for your computer. In order to get the best out of a computer game, you must first understand the basics of computer gaming. The basics of computer games are fairly simple. The computer controls the playing of the game, and it uses your computer’s power to move and shoot. Once you’ve learned how to play a computer game, you will be able to use your computer to do anything you could possibly want. Once you know how to play, you should be able to learn how to become a casino pro. The difference between casino gaming and the traditional poker game is the playing of poker. A lot of the skill that one should have in the traditional poker game is not as important in casino gaming. In casinos, the goal is to get as much money as possible as quickly as possible. The aim of the game is to keep the board and cards from crossing the line. In computer games, however, the aim is to get as much money as possible. The goal of computer games is usually very hard to achieve. A good computer game player can be very fast at playing a computer game while also being good at all the other games that are played.
What’s the most important difference between a slot machine and a casino?
Many people think that the two are very similar. They are not. A casino is a more advanced form of gambling and more complicated than a slot machine. At a casino, you will usually have a limit on how much money you can play each day. You may also have a limit on how many
Here’s a fun little exercise you can do in iTunes:
In iTunes, click on your music library in the sidebar.
Turn on shuffle, ensure that you have “By Songs” selected in the Shuffle menu (which is in Controls in the main menu)
Type the first word that comes to mind in the search box
Play one of the songs that is displayed
Pick a new word or name from the currently playing song, type that word into the search box
Listen
When song changes, repeat 5
Note that in step 5 that you must pick a word that will include the currently playing song or iTunes will get confused and stop playing after the song is over. Obviously, having a large music library (23847 songs for me) and lots of metadata helps make the game interesting.

Remember Gnarls Barkley‘s first single in the summer of 2006? “Crazy” was the first single to chart in the UK based purely on online sales. Now one half of that duo, Cee-Lo Green, has released an equally enchanting single called “Fuck You” off his upcoming album, The Lady Killer. Here’s the first video for the song:
