Seriously

Evidently, my dogs are sneaking around in the middle of the night, taking hot showers. That's clearly the only feasible explanation for why I have zero hot water on some mornings. Sound dubious? Consider a few other labrador-golden-retriever highlights:
  • They've mastered the art of detecting a perfectly brewed cup of coffee, slurping most of it without a single spill.
  • Every now and then, the paper is mysteriously missing from the driveway. Coincidentally -- or not -- those are the very mornings that Oskar chooses to sleep practically cradling the front door.
  • Ghosts. They sense them. Why else would they make mad rushes for the back of the yard, barking at absolutely nothing?
  • Just when I think I couldn't possibly time my departure any later, they sneak off with the pillows from the couches.

In related fabulous news: they're expert fly catchers and insects-in-the-house-detectors. Brilliantly luxurious. Especially in soon-to-be-cricket season.

Proxy gambling, in its easiest type, permits a gambler residing in another country|abroad|overseas} to send a proxy to a casino, who in turn places wagers on behalf of the gambler. The host casino in turn supplies audio-visual gear that allows the gambler to look at in actual time via a mobile system or computer 우리계열 a table sport and talk betting directions to his/her proxy. Proxy gambling is prohibited in Macau, though it's still out there in other east Asian jurisdictions.
