I admit I am clueless when it comes to gambling...my mom's the family expert on that stuff to the point that over a few years time she wiped out her and my step dads retirement savings.  Probably about four years ago or so we went to visit my aunt for Thanksgiving in a town that has a casino.  My mom wanted me to go with her and try it out but I am not one to gamble my money so she bribed me with thirty bucks to go.  Personally I never saw the allure to watching fruits, vegetables and other oddities roll around after pulling a lever but thinking back on the endeavor I thought I'd been better off to cash out after hitting near a hundred bucks then starting over on another machine with her thirty and kept doing the same thing.  That's how I think they get you, they start you on a roll then drop you down.  I walked out being able to hand her back her thirty bucks which she insisted I had somehow earned by not losing it to which I quipped it was that logic that she no longer had several hundred thousand dollars in her bank account and made her take it back.  

Anyway, so I've went over to the "slot" machines here a couple times...I figure I am not losing anything so what the heck.  The second time I high tail it off the site after I put in I think like a six and line 20, not that I knew what the hell any of that meant but the thing never stopped rolling and I was sure I broke it...lol.  So I "scattered"...I figure that must be what "scatters" are, earned rights to be excused for breaking the machine so I did exactly that.  I went back to look last night to see if it stopped rolling and it evidently did but remember "mums" the word on who broke it if they had to send in a tech to do any repairs before I went back.
