OT: Best Buy

[open.seas at verizon.net (Chris)]

The only solution to this situation is to promote more gambling.  We 
need a horse racing track in every community. We might have children 
left hungry because Dad lost all his money at the track, but at least we 
wouldn't have people arrested for passing legitimate currency.

PS  And more booze and other fun things.
