so,
FHM magazine has this feature called "I can do that", which features an average joe doing unaverage things.
consider me the joe for the month....
next wednesday they are flying me out to Las Vegas to play heads up poker against this guy:
a week from today, i sit down with nine-time World Series of Poker bracelet winner
Phil Hellmuth.
and it will be featured in a coming issue of FHM.
it's on, beeotch.

unfortunately, the cheap bastards are only paying for me to go, and the cheapest ticket i could find is $467. plus, i'll only be gone for one night anyway...

They're making you pay for it?

no, they're paying for just me to go. if my wife were to go, i'd have to pay for that out of my own pocket.

Better yet, just let the snot drool out your nose and refuse to wipe it --- far more distracting . . . . .
, and some of those sunglasses so no one can see what you're lookin' at - yeah, so hot!
