Would like to play
With a fool holding hands
With a one-eyed jack of spades
While on the deck they sing
So one of the crazy things I do here in the button factory is work on a machine that measures via computer. This task is repetative and very tedious. There is a radio that plays regularly in this area and there is also a four and a half minute delay while the machine is measuring. Usually, I have my books ready to read during that delay time, seeing as there is nothing else really that can be done. The woman who also shares the responsibilty with me is ill and so I have been on this crazy machine almost all day. WELL, I asked God for help because I was going insane. One of the articles that was being read on the radio was hysterical. It was about the MIT crew who have figured out the science to the game of black jack based on a four to five deck system. These geniuses go out to Vegas every year and rob them blind. See, counting cards is not illeagal, however when you are dealing four or five decks, it is really difficult. Not, however, if you go to MIT. They have won over 400K in the past eight/nine years out of Vegas. It is like a tradition that the seniors pass on to the freshman or something!! What a hoot. Vegas verses the geniuses. Apparently though, the geniuses get kicked out on a regular basis because the casinos are privately owned. What a hoot. After this article was over I began to go really insane and asked God for help. He broke the machine!! There was nothing that can be done. My boss has to restructure the whole thing. HAHA!! I am free.
