Gambling, The Way We Want You To
Late last week, Vice cops busted up an illegal video poker stash in a store that was simply called Variety Store. “It’s a quality-of-life issue, and obviously was a nuisance to people in the community,” said Chief Inspector William Blackburn, who is quickly being the go-to-guy for awesome news quotes. (”This product in itself glorifies the drug trade in the city of Philadelphia,” he said of a breath mint.) From who else but Drew Carey comes another story, asking why veterans can’t play poker in the VFW but states can run lotteries, which are almost a sure bet for the house to win. (During the Dallas’ cops raid, some woman wet her pants, the report says.) Carey, who also is totally for medical marijuana (AK-47, I bet). The situations aren’t really the same, of course: Cops heard underage gambling was going on at good ol’ Variety Store, while the other dudes were veterans. Anyway, the state still has Gus, the second-most famous groundhog in Pennsylvania to sell lottery tickets so there’s not much anybody can do about their gambling stranglehold. |

Drew Carey is a Dead Head.
I will automatically disagree with everything he says.
I agree with Drew Carey.. people should be able to gamble wherever they see fit.
