Unfortunately Minister of Equal Opportunity sounds like something to pad a resume. "Janitor" sounds more productive.

If I could replace all our ministers with a team of hard working janitors I'm sure the country would be a lot better than it is now, believe me...

Sweep out corruption! Shine our tarnished image! Mop us out of drowning in debt!

You know that won't matter.

But I suppose I could pledge my Spinal Breakers and Devastators PCB...too bad they aren't shmups...I'll even throw in the Stratovox cab but somebody else pays for S&H...

Didn't work for (Admiral, later) James Stockdale.

(Or McCain, if you think about their Hanoi Hilton experiences...Stockdale didn't even have autofire when he abused his own face so the VC couldn't put him in a parade. True fucking story.)

obama is going to win, why are you bothering to bet.

intrade.com currently has Obama's win at 84.5%

that's about 5.5 times McCains chances. our bet here is inline with that.

This thread is getting interesting...will antron win a free arcade PCB?

Stay tuned...November the 4th ain't too far off. ^_~

For antron,

Would you have settled for a Cave arcade shmup PCB instead? Perhaps, a DDP-DFK PCB kit would've been better, hmmm?

Glad to hear that you scored one. We'll have to wait another four more years for such another thread similar to yours for bets on voting Democrat or Republican and win a free shmup PCB in the process. ^_~

This thread belongs in the annuals of Shmups.org lore... ^_~

if anyone was wondering, bkk made good on the bet. he is definately a man of his word.

form my point of view, sending him half my PCB collection would have been completely overshadowed by having Sarah Palin as VP, so I was going do handle that part OK.

thanks bkk

Aw, thanks for the kind words. I had a similar line of thought; if Palin would become VP I'd at least have something to show for it
