Come on, 63 is not all that old. In fact, it's considered a real

good

idea for us old farts to take on new adventures to keep the brain
stimulated.

mroejacks: Lack of things to do are not my problem. I don't know
how I did anything but work before I retired. Come to think of it
that is all I did but work for 36 years. I was a workaholic which I
do not recommend. Denny

On the other hand, I think you'd be better off tackling another
windmill than looking for non-random behavior in random processes.

aren't 100%. Go ahead and play these since you will lose less than on
the "worsest" machines, but don't expect long term profit. Take them
as a recreational pastime and limit your losses to what you can
afford. And be happy when you hit a jackpot. You CAN hit jackpots
on "bad" machines. In the long run those jackpots won't make you a
long-term winner, but they are fun and will give you some fun winning
sessions.

Please post this again when somebody criticizes someone's picture of a
dealt royal, or aces or what ever. It was fun for them and should not
be criticized as being a waste.
