Before I leave for Borneo, I had an idea for a post. About four years ago, I got an email from someone from pokerlistings who basically said that they liked my blog and wanted me to do "comedy" posts. For free. Doing something for nothing--it seemed like a great idea! So I said yes.
I think I made four articles for them. They were not funny. Also, some mystery editor kept changing my lines--they were probably too offensive. The problem was that the changes kept taking away even more the humor. After I got annoyed enough, I stopped sending them stuff.
So anyhoo, I can't access them here in the UAE. Pokerlistings is banned here, apparently. But here are the links.
(By the way, they wanted a picture of me for each article. I said, "No way." They insisted, so I said, "Just use the picture of the goofiest looking poker player that you can find online." So that long haired dude that you see in the article? He ain't me. I look much goofier.)
"Developing the Steel Trap of a Micro Grinder"
"Transforming Pennies into Nickels without Black Magic"
"Poker's Egyptian Origins"
"Ish at the Deuce"
Happy Holidays!
