Ryan: Thanks for the condolences, but I'll get by. ;-) I only ended up losing 5 bucks. Now I can sit back and enjoy the game Mon night without being too involved. Will probably root for OSU because they're a Big Ten school, but other than that, I won't really care who wins. Kind of interesting that the same two schools that played for the football championship are playing for the basketball title.
Horticattleman: Thanks for the tip. I know you were just joking, but gambling is one thing I've never had a problem with. I play a little quarter-dollar poker once in awhile, and get in a pool at work once in awhile, but thats about it. Haven't been in a casino in probably 30 years even though there are some about an hour from here, and haven't bought a lottery ticket in I don't know how long. Kicked the booze a few years ago, so now my only two big addictions are cigs and these boards. ;-)
