    Shopping Spree

    And how many people died during the time it took you to write that post, 30, 40, 50?See my point? Instead of trying to do something, you post about a blog most people enjoy reading. Why don't you go and volunteer your time instead of writing this crap, and rather than sign up for a list that will do no good to any of those people you care so much about that are dying, why don't you send them money or better yet, move there and help them buy the things they don't have?
    I have done those things - donated my time and my money. Part of donating my time is trying to make others aware of the problem, like here. And signing the list will help - it will be presented to the leaders of the G8 in an attempt to make them realize the world is watching. If you had bothered to read it, rather than just criticizing, you would have seen that.

    I know I am going to get flamed for this, but I don't care.I think DN is a great poker player, and he also seems to care about being a good person, which I admire even more.However, yesterday people around the world gathered to try to bring people's attention to the terrible poverty still causing people to die every day in Africa. Every three seconds, someone dies from illnesses that are easily prevented and/or treated here in the US and in other parts of the world where we're lucky to have access to things like penicillin.I think it's terrible timing that, on the day that many people threw themselves into this cause, trying to change the course of the world in a meaningful way, DN chose to detail a $3,000 shopping spree. It just feels unfortunate and badly timed. Anyway, if you want to do something, you can sign the list (http://www.live8live.com/list/) which will be presented to the leaders of the G8 conference, in an attempt to bring about some meaningful change.And sorry for the criticism, Daniel, as I really am a big fan of your play, and I admire you for being brave enough to open up your life in your blog. I just think the timing here was poor. If you read at average speed, in the time you took reading this, ten people have died. Eleven... Twelve...

    I'll go back to my first statement - guys post and ask "where are the ladies?" The ladies are off elsewhere, posting on forums where the average intelligence of the posts is higher than kindergarden.IveyFan, I could could insult you personally if I wanted - but what would that prove? All I can think is that you're obviously a bitter and unhappy man, and it shows.I'm leaving work now so I'll be able to get away from the computer and won't have time for this. Thanks for helping me kill a boring afternoon.Daniel Negreanu has the reputation of being a fine gentleman. I can't imagine he would be happy to see the nastiness on the forums on his own website. It's very sad to see.

    Well, you've all proved my point very nicely. I thought I could enlighten you as to why it's such a boys' club here, but you don't care, so why should I?And for those of you who were base enough to insult my appearance, I don't see pictures of any of you -- are you all gorgeous studs? I tend to doubt it.As far as whatever else you simpletons said, it isn't worth responding to. I'll go back to lurking like the rest of the women here...And, oh yeah, Layne Flack - THERE'S a FILF!

    And you guys wonder why there are so few girls on the forums here.
    Maybe because poker is 90-95% guys? I dunno, that's just the logic talking. :roll:
    True, but these boards aren't even close to 5-10% women...Hey, do what you want, but if you're going to talk like you're in a locker room, then don't whine about the fact that there are no women posting!Except for Barry Greenstein, I never see any reference to the appearance of male players, but EVERY TIME a woman player is mentioned, you guys go off on "I'd hit that" or "I wouldn't go near her" or any of a number of classless, disgusting remarks. All you're doing is reinforcing the stereotype of a certain type of small-minded male. Congratulations! :wink:

    I have been lurking here for months...only started posting here recently (BEFORE the pool started). The reason I am so hesitant to post here might have to do with the overall nastiness and intolerance that I see being flung around these forums daily (and I don't scare easily). I'm sure I'm not the only person who feels this way.It's so ironic - one of the true gentlemen of poker hosts one of the harshest forums I have ever seen. :shock:

    Peter Gabriel?

    As in, THE Peter Gabriel?In Your Eyes/Sledgehammer/Don't Give Up/Biko Peter Gabriel?Does anyone know if he's just a spectator or if he plays as well?I run a website about his longtime guitarist, David Rhodes (my avvie pic was taken when I got to spend an afternoon with David in London last year), so seeing him mentioned in Daniel's blog gave me a "When World Collide" moment! Anyone have any information? I would never have thought Peter Gabriel was into poker! Cool!!! :shock:

    Exactly - thanks for giving us a peek inside, but under no circumstances should you feel you have to show us everything (after all, no good card players shows everything, right?).Be well -Stacey

    We could go on for hours talking about the alliances of Veronica and Rachel. I kind of miss Coral. She would have brought an awesome lot of drama to the show. <snip>
    How could they even consider calling a team "Bad Asses" without Coral?! :roll:

    I think Julie is on the wrong team - let's not forget that she tried to disconnect Veronica's harness while they hung between two buildings a couple of years back (I don't disagree with her actions, I just don't think she should be on the good guys team).I was so sorry to see Jon eliminated first - I love that boy! :wink:
