Anurag Dikshit, the former director of Gibraltar-based PartyGaming, has agreed to cooperate with authorities probing the web-based gambling scene. It's illegal to allow those on American soil to access online wagering sites.

My all time favorite was from my days as a drive-up teller. We had a young, cute woman whose name was Candace Kiss. Guess what name she went by. Yes, Candy Kiss. smile

I dated a guy after high school and he wanted to marry me. We didn't; however if we had married my name would have been Autumn Day. Now - can you imagine that?
