I don’t even remember what year it was, but I think it was early in 2001. I was living at Budget Suites, which is where I first lived when I moved to Las Vegas.
Back then, just five years ago, online poker wasn’t much of an option for making money, so I would usually play anywhere from $80-$160 limit hold’em to $300-$600 or $400-$800 mixed games depending on my bankroll at the time. I habitually played with an inadequate bankroll which was part impatience/part a lack of fear/part I had a good reputation and could borrow money if necessary.
Anyway, after a about a year playing very little poker but spending money frivolously, I started 2001 without a bankroll. One night I went out for drinks with my good buddies from Toronto, Sam and Tyson.
We ended up talking about “being a grinder” and that I couldn’t do it anymore. After playing high limits, the highest regular games in Vegas at the time, they felt like I could never go back to being a grinder at smaller limits and win.
I disagreed with them. I tried to tell them that if I put my mind to it and my back is against the wall that I could grind it out and play hard. They were actually rooting for me to do that, but nonetheless, made me a bet that I couldn’t do the following: play 140 hours of $30-$60 limit hold’em and earn at least a big bet an hour over that period. Also, I could not play any higher than $30-$60 at any point.
I took them up on the offer and borrowed $2300 from Huck Seed. I owed him $7700 from a goofy night of playing heads up after a night of drinking. We played $200-$400 one night with the understanding that neither of us would have to pay anytime soon. It was a fun night, and I learned a ton about playing Stud 8 or better heads up. He was way, way, way, better than me at the time, but after playing with him, and John Hennigan in 1999, I learned so much about playing the game short handed that it was an invaluable experience.
So anyway, it’s Monday morning and I’m at the Bellagio at 11:45am and sit right down to play $30-$60. Obviously if I lost the $2300 it would make it tough to win my bet since I’d have to find someone to borrow money from.
Day one went well. I put in a 10 hour session and won about $1300 if I remember correctly. The first five days went well as I only had one loss of $300. More importantly, I was on schedule with hours played and ahead of schedule as far as money earned was concerned.
As far as being social goes, I even had time to go out with the guys one night after a session. After going out, I was back at the tables to get in some more hours. I probably played about four more hours and quit at maybe 6:00am.
The next day I slept in a little bit, but was still able to get into a game by about 3:00pm. I played for only six hours that night, being a little tired from the previous night.
After about 10 days of play I was getting tired, but the games seemed so easy that I knew I would win the bet. I was averaging closer to $100 an hour despite losing three sessions out of ten.
After 14 days I put in my 140 hours and won a little over $22,000. I paid Huck back his $2300 (the other $7700 wasn’t due for quite some time) and went out with the guys for a little celebration time.
The bet was actually a lot of fun for me. I really enjoyed it and it felt great to prove to myself that I could do it. I credit making that bet with getting be back on track and more focused on playing more regularly.
In 2001 I played a full year of tournaments and by the end of the year I was back on my feet. I took on a partner to play in the big mixed games and Bellagio and went on a tear.
I started out playing $300-$600 and won four sessions in a row. The game quickly became $400-$800, then $600-$1200, and finally, $800-$1600. After putting together a decent bankroll of my own I parted ways with my partner and played in the games on my own. I continued to win, nothing crazy, but I was holding my own.
Along the way, in 2004 I had a good start to the year, both in tournaments and in cash games. By that point, the big game got bigger. It was usually $1000-$2000 to start, and would often get kicked up to $1500-$3000 later in the night.
By the WSOP, the game got kicked up again, mostly being $2000-$4000. Occasionally, with the right crew, the big game would be $4000-$8000. That’s as big as it ever got on a regular basis. I didn’t play in the game initially.
I first played $4000-$8000 in Tunica, MI. that January. At that point I had a partner putting up half the money, and in my first session I won $487,000, the biggest cash game win I’d ever had to date.
I remember being super excited about the win and looked forward to playing again. The next day I went back to playing in the game, and was promptly stuck over $300,000. That kind of stung. These were swings that I just wasn’t used to at the time, and with the $100,000 cap games in there, the swings were fast and furious.
I ended up losing $423,000 that next day and realized that the game was just a little out of my comfort zone. I felt like a favorite, but didn’t have near enough of a bankroll to play in that game full time. Instead, I thought it better to just take some shots from time to time when the game looked good.
The last part of 2004 helped me boost my bankroll to a point where I was comfortable playing $4000-$8000. Winning about $3 million in tournaments helped a lot.
In 2005-present, I haven’t played much poker at all in the cash games. More so recently. The games don’t go as often since a lot of people that would normally play live are playing online. That’s just not something I’m all that comfortable doing, besides, I am not sure if I’m a winning player online against tough competitors. I have lots of trouble focusing online and reading players. I think I play “ok” but it just doesn’t seem real to me?
Lately I’ve been home, writing by book, columns, etc. and really miss playing poker. I’d like to go down to the Bellagio right now and play, frankly, but there is no game going. Hasn’t been one all week. Who knows, maybe I’ll just go to LA tomorrow and see what’s going on there. I’m thinking that maybe I need to make another one of those bets again.
I’m getting pretty sick of all things related to poker, that don’t involve actually playing poker. This blog, the columns, the book writing, the internet forums, it’s all getting really old, really fast.
In fact, yesterday I was seriously contemplating making some pretty big life changes. As in, dumping the blog, my columns, etc. Not for any other reason than I want to play poker again. Not no limit hold’em, but poker. Stud 8 or better, Omaha 8 or better, Triple Draw, pot limit Omaha, limit hold’em, all the games. It’s just way more fun for me and I haven’t played in ages.
Besides, the average person has absolutely no clue how much money poker players make in “endorsements.” No poker player makes very much money from endorsements outside of online poker sites. It’s not brazillions of dollars. In fact, the money made by even the most marketable players pales in comparision to what the better online pros make playing $25-$50 NL games online.

Lori and I had been thinking about it for a while and we finally agreed to go through with it. Our immediate family since we got married a while back has always been me, her, and Mushu. Well, that’s about to change. Lori is officially… getting us a new dog! My good friend Tyson (he is Asian and I thought I should point that out to prove that I like Asian people :-), has a Beagle Pekinese and she had puppies about seven weeks ago. Tomorrow, Lori is picking up our new dog, a little girl, so that Mushu can have a sister. We decided to name the dog Marley, after my favorite musician Bob Marley. Since I’ve been learning more about “PC” stuff I guess I should also add the following: our decision to name the dog after a half white/half black singer, in no way means that we believe that people of mixed races are like dogs. It was not meant to disgrace the Marley family. It’s kind of bizarre that all of this race discussion is happening now. About a week ago I ordered a movie on Netflix. Netflix is the bomb by the way. It suggested a few films for me. One of them called, “America Beyond the Color Line,

I thought Canadian actor Dan Akroyd was pretty funny in that bit. His makeup was similar to the makeup that I used, and while he’s obviously a real comedian and actor, his Jamaican accent isn’t very good.
The real reason I’m posting this is that I’ve been reading on the forums that some found my video blog offensive and I wanted to know exactly what is so different about this skit and the skit that I did?
Maybe you found both of them equally offensive? I don’t really know, nor can I really understand why a relatively small group of people see my skit as blackface.
OK, I’m officially done now, lol. I won’t revisit the topic again, but I thought that adding this little clip would put things into perspective a little bit.

2.DISCRIMINATION OR PREJUDICE BASED ON RACE
********************************************
So if you haven’t seen the latest video blog, I do a little skit where I impersonate a Jamaican character named Dexter. I threw on a dread lock hair wig, wore my best Bob Marley outfit, and had my wife do my makeup so that I’d look Jamaican.
She mixed brown face paint with black face paint. Jamaicans often have much darker complexions and she was trying to be authentic. She was doing it in the light and it looked good, but when finished, it was darker than I expected. I wanted it to look more like the pictures from Halloween when I did the same thing in 2003.
So anyway, I’ve been reading on the forums that some people were offended, claming that it looked too much like blackface. Now, I saw the movie Bamboozled and I’m aware of the historical significance of it.
When I put this blog together, not for a second did I have any intention whatsoever of having it come off as a racist skit. I’m a little surprised that some people made the connection to blackface. Aside from actually using makeup, there was nothing blackface about the skit.
In fact, before releasing the blog to the public, it was screened by a black audience. I knew only one of the people who screened it. No one had a problem with it.
What I find slightly strange is that it seems as though the people who had the biggest problem with it… are white.
Now, I watch Saturday Night Live, MadTV, and similar skit shows from time to time, and have seen skits where white people play blacks, whites play Asians, blacks play whites, etc. The skit that I did, was no different than those type of skits in my opinion. I don’t see them as racist skits, I just see them as an attempt at humor.
In high school, two of my best friends, Tony and Mikey, were Jamaican. We used to hang out at their place all the time. In fact, most of my friends in grade school were black. From grade one up until grade six I had a total of two white friends. Vaughan, Ron, Mark, Junior, Apache, Carl, and Willie all had either Jamaican or Antiguan backgrounds. My brothers best friends were also of Jamaican decent.
Not that any of the matters, but I wanted to paint a picture for anyone who felt like my intentions where malicious. I come from the most multi-cultural city in the entire world. Race was hardly an issue growing up in Toronto, it’s a total melting pot. I can understand that it’s not the same everywhere and that race is a much more sensitive issue here in the U.S.
I’ve always been able to laugh at myself, my friends laughed at me, and everything was always very light hearted growing up. Race was never an issue at all. Two of my other best friends, Regev and Oren, are Israeli’s. We used to crack on each other hard, me being a Romanian “thief” and all. We all made fun of each other, but more importantly, we made fun of ourselves.
I’ve always believed that humor is the best way to lighten things up, especially with potentially sensitive issues. I thought the skit was funny and non-offensive. It was all just a joke, much like what we see in society all the time, whether it’s Dan Akroyd playing a black dude, the Wayans brothers playing White Chicks, Eddie Murphy imitating white people with face paint, or Jamie Kennedy dressing up as a black woman.
Ok, clearly it’s a little more sensitive when a white guy imitates a black dude, but if the intentions are pure, I can’t imagine why anyone would be offended by it. If you know that their was no malicious intent, why would it bother you? There wasn’t an ounce of hate that went into that skit.
I’ve had Jamaican people e-mail me telling me that they aren’t offended in the least and that they sent it to their friends. The e-mail said that there are jokes in there that non-Jamaicans just wont get.
I dunno, I just think sometimes we take ourselves way too seriously. If we were all able to laugh at ourselves and our differences, I think the world would be a better place.
At the very least, I hope that this brings up healthy discussion about race relations. I believe that it’s healthy to talk about this sort of thing rather than ignore it completely.

Random Canadian Jokes:
One day an Englishman, an American, and a Canadian walked into a pub
together. The proceeded to each buy a pint of Molson Canadian. Just as they
were about to enjoy their beverage three flies landed in each of their
pints. The Englishman pushed his beer away from him in disgust. The
American fished the offending fly out of his beer and continued drinking it
as if nothing had happened.
The Canadian picked the fly out of his drink and started shaking it over the
pint, yelling, “SPIT IT OUT, SPIT IT OUT YOU!!!”
****
A Canadian is walking down the street with a case of beer under his arm.
His friend Doug stops him and asks, “Hey Bob! Whatcha get the case of beer
for?” “I got it for my wife, eh.” answers Bob. “Oh!” exclaims Doug,
“Good trade.”

On the first day of Grade Three, Johnnie’s teacher asked the students to
count to 50. Many of them did very well, some getting as high as 37. But
Johnnie did extremely well; he made it to 100 with only 3 mistakes. At home
he told his Dad how well he had done. Dad told him, “That’s because you are
from Newfoundland, son.” The next day, in language class, the teacher asked
students to recite the alphabet. Some made it to the letter “k” with only
one mistake, but Johnnie outdid them again. He made it all the way through,
missing only the letter “m”. That evening he once again brought his Dad up
to date and Dad explained to him, “That’s because you are from Newfoundland,
son”. The next day, after Physical Education, the boys were taking
showers.Johnnie noted that, compared to the other boys in his grade, he
seemed overly “well-endowed”. This confused him. That night, he asked his
Dad, “Dad, they all have little tiny ones, but mine is ten times bigger than
theirs. Is that because I’m from Newfoundland?” “No, son, “explained Dad,
“That’s because you’re 18!”]]>

The cue ball was near the 2 pocket. We were playing 9-ball with the 6,7,8,9. The 6 was very close to the 6 pocket, but I was hooked and had to go off the rail between the 3 and 5 pocket to hit it, and hope to make it. I made that shot.
The 7 ball was on the rail between the 4 and the 6 pocket. I banked that ball into the 3, leaving myself shape for a bank on the 8-ball, since it didn’t go anywhere. The 8 ball was also between the 4 and 6 pocket close to the rail. I banked that one in the 3 pocket also.
I left myself perfect shape on the 9 ball straight into the 2 pocket and drained it. The odds of me completing that run out had to be well over 100-1.
I went on to win the second set also, 4-3. Pool is so much fun when I play like I used to, but more often than not, I get excessively frustrated, either missing shots that should be automatic, or screwing up my shape and stalling runs.
That’s all, lol. I’m excited, I done played good.

From a recent column Phil Gordon wrote:
I really like Erick. I have a healthy amount of respect for his game and his accomplishments. I’m not sure he’d say the same about me. In fact, I’ve heard him say many times that “Phil has no gamble” He just might be right – see, I view poker not as gambling, but as “strategic investing” I don’t play poker for the money: I play for the thrill of competition.
Erick has two big weaknesses at the table: fancy play syndrome – he’s always trying to outplay his opponents after the flop, and Gamble-Gamble – he’s more than willing to take a 50/50 or even worse, early in a tournament. He’ll be even more wiling to do so with a payout structure like we have today. My strategy: If I’m in a pot with Erick and I have a good hand, I’m gonna let him take control of the betting and let him try to “outplay” me- I’ll let him bluff off his chips. with big hands 10s or better I’ll be willing to put in a big initial raise or reraise against him and hope he finds a smaller pocket pair he wants to gamble with.
***************************************************************
What the??????? Did PHIL GORDON just matter of factly say that Erick Lindgren has two big weaknesses in his game? Then go on to give two examples that couldn’t be more untrue? It’s almost slanderous. E-DOG gambles on 50/50’s before the flop? Huh?? What??? Huh??? What??? Is this guy serious???
How in the world did Phil Gordon become enough of an authority to say that Erick has two weaknesses in his game? If someone like Johnny Chan, or Doyle Brunson, or Chip Reese said something like that it would be somewhat understandable. But we are talking about PHIL GORDON here!!!
I’m still in shock after reading this. This dude done lost his mind. Now, I’ve done similarly stupid things in the past. Clearly I’ve crossed that line before and know that speaking negatively about others play isn’t something that is usually a good idea. But for a non-professional poker player to critique an actual professional’s game, and in doing so, be about as off base as humanly possible, just makes no sense to me.
The article comes off as though Gordon knows more about poker than Erick does. Phil, are you serious? Erick would absolutely trounce you at the poker table. He’d slap you up silly, seriously. You are talking about one of the best tournament players in the world today. A guy who’s actually made his living playing the game of poker, whether it be online, in tournaments, or in cash games. What in the world makes you think you could spot a weakness in a player that plays better than you could even comprehend?
Phil, did you proof read that column before you sent it? It makes you come off like a complete bafoon. You started out the column complimenting Erick, but you are like the king of the backhanded compliment or something, lol.
Erick is a good buddy of mine, obviously, so you might say that I’m being biased. I’d challenge you to find 20 top players that think your comments where either accurate (in assessing his play), or appropriate coming from a TV Commentator/Author.
For the record, I don’t dislike you. I think you are completely wrong in this case, but I don’t think you are a jerk or anything like that. I just don’t understand what motivated you to write something like that in the way that you wrote it?

Oh, also one more thing. I worked on a video blog the other day and it should be up very soon at www.fullcontactpoker.com. Or, you can also watch the video blog at www.rawvegas.tv
This coming video blog is pretty special to me. It’s pretty revealing and there is something I’ll share in that blog that I’ve never shared publicly before.]]>
Erik Seidel makes million dollar weight bet
It’s true. Erik Seidel recently bet one million dollars that he could gain 150 pounds in precisely one year. Erik is a healthy eater, but that will obviously have to change if he is going to win this bet. Erik is putting up his million up against a few players who put up money on the don’t.
I think it’s a terrible idea and could be very damaging to Erik’s health whether successful or not. In fact, the people making this bet should reconsider going through with it if they consider Erik a friend. That much weight gain in one year could kill him.
Ivey to Play Tiger for Five million
It looks like Ivey has bitten off more than he can chew in this match. Apparently, there is talk of a match between the “Phil Ivey of Golf” and Ivey himself at Shadow Creek at the end of this month.
Ivey’s game has improved dramatically, but that Tiger guy is pretty good at golf. Anyway, here are the particulars:
1. Ivey plays from the Ladies tees, Tiger plays from the tips.
2. They will play dead even, match play.
3. Once on the green, Ivey will get to scramble his putts.
4. Tiger will not be able to use his putter. Instead, he must putt with his driver.
Ivey would obviously have to bring his A game to win this match, and frankly, I don’t like his side at all.
Barry Greenstein is considering becoming a Rabbi
I know, I know, hard to believe right? Barry recently had an out of body experience that made him question everything he’s always believed. He is currently in New York City attending religious classes in the hopes of one day becoming a Jewish Rabbi. I’m as shocked as you, I never would have believed it!
John Juanda is done with poker
One of the greatest poker players in the world is hanging them up. After a few bad sessions online, Juanda, feeling unfullfilled from the grind that is poker, has decided to give it up completely.
John has already become a restaurant owner in Los Angeles, and may decide to spend more time there. However, more likely than that, John will go back to school to study politics. He wants to make a difference in the world and is extremely interested in politics. He has vowed to skip the WSOP, WPT, and all other events indefinitely.
Allen Cunningham to be appear as a witness for Jamie Gold
This one you’d never guess in a million years. Most of you are likely aware of the lawsuit involving WSOP champion Jamie Gold and Crispin Leyser. Well, according to the people representing Gold in the suit, Allen Cunningham has stepped forward and will appear as a character witness on behalf of Gold. Cunningham will apparently testify that they swapped 2% and Gold paid him immediately after the conclusion of the tournament. What else Allen has to say is still unknown.
Ok, that was fun. Now I’m done. Oh, and by the way, I made all of these up. What can I say, I’m prety bored this afternoon and the Doyle story inspired me!
**********************************************
On an unrelated note, my first book, “Hold’em Wisdom for All Players” is available at www.cardsharkmedia.com. I wasn’t sure how well the book would be recieved, but all of the reviews I’ve seen have been positive. It’s an easy read, basically 50 hold’em tips to think about. The other book I’m working on will be a “big book” with other contributors, etc. I’m still unsure when that one will be out, but I’m really hoping to have it out by WSOP time.]]>
I just finished watching the film, “An Inconvenient Truth” and it had a profound effect on me. I was already aware of the climate crisis that this world faces, but I guess I never realized that something can be done about it and we aren’t doomed to our fate. Of course, if significant changes aren’t made we’re… well, all gonna die. Sounds pretty harsh, I know, but it seems pretty clear that at the current rate, if no changes are made to the amount of CO2 we pump into the air each day, this Earth can’t survive another 50 years. The Earth is drawing completely dead. Al Gore obviously cares deeply about this subject. He speaks passionately about it and while the outlook is gloomy, when watching him talk about it your left feeling like his crusade is helping to enforce change worldwide. Al Gore would have made an excellent president in my opinion, much better than that stubborn mule we have now, but I think what he is doing now might be even more important. From the movie, to his travel across the world enlightening people about the dangers of climate warming. When I watched the film I was angry at times. It upsets me that this scientific information has been ignored by congress for so long, and little has been done to address the number one threat to our existence. No, it’s not terrorists, not even close. There isn’t a scientist in the world that could honestly dispute the fact that the most likely cause of “the end” will be climate warming. I’m not an expert on it, but it seems pretty obvious that there is nothing more important in our world today than finding ways to curb the amount of CO2 emissions into our atmosphere. We don’t, we die. If you haven’t seen the movie, I would strongly advise you to take the time to watch it. Also, go to www.climatecrisis.net for more information on what you can do to make a difference. After watching the movie I decided that I wanted to do my part, despite the fact that I felt a little hopeless and powerless. The U.S. government needs to step in and make this a priority. They have to stop lying to the American people about the state of the world. They have to stop harassing scientists into lying about what they see for our future. There was a funny quote from the movie, I forget who is was attributed to that said, “It is difficult to get a man to understand something when his salary depends on not understanding it.” This is more than a political issue, it’s a moral issue. What good is a fruitful economy if that in turn means that it destroys the Earth as we know it? In the movie, Al Gore also explains that spending resources to focus on climate warming could actually be good for the economy. Anyway, as I said the film had a profound effect on me and I wanted to do something about it. I have a blog, so the first thing I wanted to do is share this with anyone who hasn’t seen the movie. To possibly encourage anyone who reads this to think about what they could do to help. I’m planning on taking major steps in my surroundings to help me a part of the solution instead of the problem. The first thing I’m going to get rid of my cars, both the Toyota Tundra that I won at the WSOP in 2005, and the Lexus SC 430 that I’ve had for a while. Instead, I’m going to look into purchasing a hybrid car for me and my wife. Now, I realize that not everybody can do that, but I’m not asking you to. That’s what I feel compelled to do and I’m lucky enough to have the resources to do it. There are other ways to be a part of the solution… www.climatecrisis.net.]]>
I hadn’t decided until very recently whether or not I was going to make it out to LA for a heads up tournament I was invited to play in. I don’t know a ton about it, other than it’s a $10,000 buy in with 64 players, will air live on www.liveatthebike.com. Also, I know that I drew Bill Edler in the first round and I’m scheduled to play at Crystal Park tomorrow at 4:30pm. Of course, I’m still in Vegas and won’t be in LA until 2:50pm tomorrow which gets me there just in time for my match. I’m not even sure how I even feel about this tournament. Since I made a last minute decision to play, it just wasn’t something I was overly gung ho about, but after seeing the list of entrants it compelled me to play. Had it been a group of average players I probably wouldn’t have played, but it appears that they attracted a pretty good field so I changed my mind. *************************************************************** The first play of the Super Bowl was a nightmare. I felt that the only way the Bears had even the slightest hope of victory was with special teams and fluky touchdowns in the rain. Well, right off the bat they kicked to Hester and off he went… that was the last time they kicked to him- good decision. Had it not been for the rain, the Colts would have absolutely trounced them. Even in the rain, which is going to hamper any offense, Manning and Addai were able to do pretty much whatever they wanted, getting first down after first down. In the meantime, Grossman looked ridiculous out there. Seriously, the passes he were throwing may as well have been under handed. He just threw the ball straight up in the air and hoped that someone in black would catch it. Time of possesion, first downs, etc., the game was dominated by the Colts and really shouldn’t have been close. If they play that game with no rain the Colts blow them out almost everytime. It was the most lopsided Super Bowl, skill wise, that I’ve seen in years. The Colts won a tough AFC Championship while the Bears qualified by beating up on bottom feeders in the NFC. The final score didn’t tell the story of how lop sided this game really was. ]]>
I went a little nutty the other day at the Bellagio. I had a meeting there, and after the meeting I decided to play a little poker, if you can call it poker: 2-7 Triple Draw, Badugi, and Razz with 2-7 rules. Pretty stupid game, but that’s what those dudes in the $400-$800 game play. No hold’em, most of them really suck at that game, no Stud, no 8 or better games, just three goofy games.
There wasn’t much of an earn in that game. In fact, I would have happily crossbooked anyone in that game while I played in the $25-$50 no limit hold’em game. After quitting due to absolute boredom, I headed to the sports book to prepare for the Super Bowl.
I was able to bet the Colts -6.5 -1.10 which was a good line so late in the game, and after that decided to add some fun prop bets in case the game is a blowout. I feel like a blowout in the Super Bowl is due, and I don’t think the Bears have much of a chance. In fact, if they played in, say, the AFC West, I’m not so sure they would have even qualified for the post season.
Here’s what I have:
Colts -6.5 -1.10 $20,000
Marvin Harrison Over 76.5 yards -1.10 $1,000
What Will Manning throw First, TD or INT? I have TD -1.85 $1000
Manning Over 1.5 TD passes -1.55 $1,000
Manning will not throw an INT +1.35 $1,000
Grossman 1st Pass Incomplete +1.20 $1,000
Manning 1st Pass Incomplete +1.70 $1,000
Who Will Throw 1st INT? Grossman -1.30 $1,000
Colts -2.5 First Downs even $1,000
Bears will never lead +1.80 $1,000
Longest FG Over 44 -1.25 $1,000
A Score in Firs 6:30: YES -1.30 $1,000
Total Points will land between 50-56 +3.50 $1,000
Colts to win by exactly 17 +20.00 $1,000
Marvin Harrison to score 1st TD +7.00 $1,000
Looks like an easy scoop, lol.]]>
Joe Rogan posted a blog responding to my comments about him in my blog. When I remembered what was said in that interview two years ago, I remembered feeling like he was mocking me in some ways. Well, after listening to the whole thing and reading Joe’s response, I’m wrong. Just plain wrong. Joe actually made a good point in his blog saying, “Daniel, I know you
