Three Articles

This week I will not be writing my regular column, because I'm too busy today finishing up the four papers I have due in the next two days. However, I did come across some articles recently, so I will still provide you with some reading material for the day.

I read one story about a young man selling prayers. Fortunately, for his customers the agnostic entrepreneur is not the one doing the praying.

I play poker. I've been at tables when I was ready to go home, but chose to stay until a specific individual left the game. The reason was because the fish was just dumping money into the table, and the game was too good to leave as long as he (or she) was in it. However, I think at some point on a larger scale casinos need to be held responsible to some degree for exploiting people's addiction. I don't have the answer, but this guy lost so much money at one casino he was cutoff. Then he lost over hundred million more at the next ones.

This article you'll just have to check out for yourself. Well... at least the guys.
