my favorite elky story was something he told me the first time he met me. it would probably be the worst and most boring story coming from anyone else but elky made it awesome.

it went something like this:
zo i waz playing zee blackjack and i bet 1k on zee black and lost, wtf so seeeeek.
so zen i bet 2k on zee black and i lost again wtf so seeeek.
so zen i bet 4k on zee black and i lost again, OMG WTF SO SEEK HAVE TO WIN SOMETIME.
so zen i bet 8k on zee black and i lose again, seeek life i run so bad.
so zen i bet 16k on zee black and i lose again, omg so seeek i have no more money now wtf so seek


one time raszi and i were taking a taxi from the rio to the wynn, and the cab driver asked what our occupation was, raszi told him we were professional craps players, and raszi practiced in the alley all the time where he also slings crackrock, and how if he loses his bankroll hes going to start a business in america called STOMP THAT HO where he brings over eastern european hookers that guys can stomp on for fun. the cabbie believed at least 60% of what raszi was saying.

Hoegaarden is a great beer. Yuengling is even better. That's one downfall of living on the west coast now

are you sure elky was playing blackjack?

That's what makes the story funny.
