Well, after lunch today I fired up a game of 2 suit Spider on my
computer. Now, I'm pretty good at this game. But I occasionally get
stuck and lose. So I said to myself:
- If I CAN complete this game, then Floyd is NOT guilty.
- If I CAN'T complete this game, then Floyd IS guilty.
Result: I didn't complete the game. I got stuck at the end. I lost.
I thought, well, maybe that was a fluke. I need another test. So, to
be double sure that it was no fluke, I went outside to shoot some
hoops. I stood at the free throw line and said to myself:
- If I MAKE this shot, then Floyd is NOT guilty.
- If I MISS this shot, then Floyd IS guilty.
Result: I missed the shot.
Thus, both my A and B tests failed or should I say passed or tested
positive. Oh hell, you know what I'm sayin'. It's a divine message.
Sorry Floyd.

i'm not sure about your results, i just asked the magic 8 ball if floyd
landis was guilty of doping and it said, "my sources say no". i asked
a second time and it came back with the same answer. we all know the
magic 8 ball never lies so he must be innocent. maybe someone can
break out the ouija board.
Perhaps a "cow plop" would be more appropriate.
"cow plop" -> I'm feeling lucky ...
"WHAT IS COW PLOP BINGO?
Cow Plop Bingo is a game that pits your luck against the gastronomical
actions of a cow. In a marked area containing a free roaming cow, you
can purchase a square on the ground. If the cow plops in your square -
you win $1,000! Proceeds from the game will be used to fund this
summer's fireworks display."

Here is something truly worthy of the most honored [censored] Pound's time:

YOU"VE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME
Cow pie bingo? Yes, people play this game. If the cow poops in your
square, you win! Unless you're in the square at the time.
In another story from the Star Ledger, it seems that Legalized Games of
Chance Commission is considering a request by the Brigantine Rams to
hold such an event:
For some, cow pie bingo is a harmless way to raise funds with some
old-fashioned country fun.
But New Jersey officials need convincing. They say the time-honored,
rural game of chance is subject to state regulation.
Last year, state officials turned down a Hampton Rotary Club request to
revive the contest at the Sussex County Farm and Horse/ New Jersey
State Farm in Augusta, according to fair officials.
Now, the Brigantine Rams football club of Atlantic County has asked the
state Legalized Games of Chance Control Commission to allow them to
hold a cow pie bingo game as a team fund-raiser. The commission's five
members will consider Brigantine's request next month.
Genene Morris, state Division of Consumer Affairs spokeswoman, said the
commission, which supervises bingo and raffle licenses and amusement
games, is responsible for ensuring every contest is fair.
"They would have to make sure that it really is based on chance," she
said.
Morris said the commission never approved or received a request for cow
pie bingo until Brigantine's this year. She said she was unfamiliar
with the Hampton Rotary situation.
Cow pie proponents say they have no problem with the state laws on
games of chance, since there is no way to know where a cow will go. A
grid is marked in a field, and contestants guess where the cow will
plop. If the cow plops in your box, you win.
I don't know how you could rig a cow's digestive processes, and
frankly, I'm better off not knowing.
My first and last thought on this? ONLY IN BRIGANTINE.
