Gottfried, Re: "We are in the most absurd bet ever ...." I see you have the resources to look up the link. Maybe you can tell Ali and Albert what "should" and "but" means. According to them, I could say, "Albert should jump off a cliff, but I wouldn't want to see him die when he hits the bottom," and they'd accuse me of sending death threats. "albert, you're such a joke. I should bet you $100 that you'd respond to this post as well, just to get the last word in. But since I am an impatient man, I'd like to know ahead of time when I can expect the check. :-))" Regard the words "should" and "but". There was never a bet that was made. I was simply giving Albert a hard time, and apparently, it's easier to do than I had ever dreamed. wbmw

Gottfried let me clarify :-)) but 1st I would like to stress it again that I may be convince to consider to allow bmw to beg re: Q.1 he asked for a check and hence the bet was made regardless of "should" :-)) Bets don't come in one-sided variety :-)) re: Q.2 Ten's post had nothing to do with the bet re: Q.3 I never replied to the post but bmw defaulted on the payment and I am addressing the default issue see the bet is not absurd but bmw may be <ggggg> -Albert

Gottfried, "We are in the most absurd bet ever ...." I have a gut feeling that the original text of the "bet" was altered. Message 17289325 When I responded to his post, Message 17292941 , it was much more straightforward, if memory serves me right.
