· The PA Gaming Control Board are named “People Of The Year” by none other than Casino Journal magazine. Sayeth the mag: “If you want an example of how hard work and dedication can overcome sizeable challenges and result in true, measurable progress, you’d be hard pressed to find a better example than the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board.” Well, scratch “hard work and dedication” and “progress” and replace ‘em with “blatant, bald-faced corruption” and “utter fuckery,” and we’re getting somewhere.

· Blue Bell developer Peter DePaul is asking the State Supreme Court to remove the ban on political candidates accepting campaign contributions from the gambling industry. Write your own joke/awful, horrendous truth about what pieces of shit we’ve become. One anti-casino activist was heard to say: “DePaul has some real DE-BALLS.” [6abc]
