Thanks for the uplifting note kid… hold on a second… bartender, can you make me another one of your heroin infused Jack & Coke's?… back again - now what were we talking about?

Poverty, honoured sir. Poverty is not a vice, that's a true saying. Yet I know too that drunkenness is not a virtue, and that's even truer. But beggary, honoured sir, beggary is a vice. In poverty you may still retain your innate nobility of soul, but in beggary - never - no one. For beggary a man is not chased out of human society with a stick, he is swept out with a broom, so as to make it as humiliating as possible; and quite right too, forasmuch as in beggary I am ready to be the first to humiliate myself. Hence the pothouse! (Fills glass, empties it, and pauses.)

 

Bonus points to whoever gets the reference.

I cheated and googled him… Fyodor Dostoyevsky. :)

Ah, so you speak fluent Google.

 

Should I be concerned about the fact that my favorite book is Crime and Punishment, my favorite band is Nirvana, and my favorite baseball team is the Minnesota Twins?

I like suffering. Not that I would recommend it for you… but you seem to have an attachment to it. :)

Plouffe is out?

 

Don't feel bad,   Reuben;   it's confusing.     Trevor's ex is dating the owner of the casino where the team is pulling a job after the game is over tonight.     Rusty (left) made the call to remove him.   The New Guy,   Robbie,   will trigger the vault.
