I am taking every Monday off for a few months, to go skiing. Good stuff.
I pulled my hamstring on Dec. 22 in a hockey game. It did OK today on the slopes (I never go down more than intermediate anyway, so not a ton of stress, but a good amount). I have to decide if I think it has healed enough to play this season of hockey, but I am optimistic.
There's a casino less than three miles from my house, that I didn't know about until recently. It's not huge, but a decent size -- 22K sqaure feet, 425 slots, 10 tables -- but it's back in the woods away from any main road, so I'd never seen it. There's also a gun range about seven miles away. On a date, should I go shooting first, gambling second, or vice versa?
Well, you could ask your date for her preference. Then you could check with your wife.

Almost perfect answer. Now that it is the 21st century, you should have said "check with your significant other".Re:get another opinion

When I last met Chris (aka pudge), he had a wife with him. (OSCON in 1999) Now that it is the 21st century (and a decade later) he might have an SO rather than a wife, but I prefer to assume that people have not changed marital status unless I have information to the contrary (and it was only half a decade later when I wrote the reply).
If you are gambling a lot of money, and aren't good at handling losses, I'd say shoot first and ask suicidal questions later, after you've run out of bullets.

As noted, it's very near my house. I am no fan of gambling, which is why I've got to check it out.
