Introduction

Greetings.

The inspiration for this blog is a fellow who goes by the handle Hurricane Mikey. If you do not know Mikey, you should check him out. He is a helluva writer who reports on his life as a lowly Las Vegas Poker dealer. To his credit, Mikey is a masterful story teller, but something is just "off" with this dude. Off in the sense that it leaves you scratching your head going WTF?....But I'll let you be the judge of that. After you have acquainted yourself with his blog, his ideology and such, feel free to check back in.

Welcome back.
I'll kick this off by listing my beef with this guy. He is a take take take kinda guy. Absolutely no give. First off, have you ever heard of a guy soliciting money on a blog? Yes, blatantly beg on a non-subscription blogspot blog. Yeah thats what I thought, me neither! But this guy has the nerve to solicit tips, ask people to buy him stuff on amazon and bitch when nobody hits his paypal tip jar. Hello, do you have a job? Apparently, he is a poker dealer. And a college graduate (OK, ASU is more like a trade school). The last part is what kills me. This guy is a college grad, with a job and he is out on the blogosphere beggin for tips!

Are you thinking WTF? I'm just getting started.
You see, alot of the people that follow his blog are senior citizens and shit, you know kinda lonely, kinda bored. And they buy him things on his "wish list" on Amazon. We arent talking useful items to help him get back on his feet or advance his career, but everyday shit like Gillete Mach3 razors, cell phone car charger, pocket knife. Huh? WTF, buy your own shit!! The sad thing is, this guy thinks he is entitled to have others by him stuff, and is not ashamed at all.

Have you ever noticed that whenever Mikey blogs about out of town guests, the blog invariably begins with _________ was generous enough to pick up dinner. Always! Does Mikey ever even offer to pay? I think his expectation is people must buy him dinner. In all his blogs, I have NEVER seen a case where he picks up the tab. Otherwise, Mikey would call him a "flea!"

The last straw is this. Recently, he befriended a white trash waitress from a local restaurant. She tells him a sad sob story, and he falls for it, hook line and sinker. Mikey is an easy target, the guy weighs like 400 lbs and to be honest, he doesnt get many chicks. Sad really, he doesnt realize that his weight is a problem....the guy is in his own world. So she takes him for all he' s got, right? Not exactly. You see, Mikey having no means of his own, turns to his reader and begs them to open their wallets. Talk about taking adantage of good people! So people donate thinking its going to a good cause, and the white trash lady disappears.
Mikey of course plays victim and acts like he did a good thing. After all, his readership donated 2000+ dollars to the WT lady. But do you see where this is going? Mikey takes the credit with the WT lady when things are good, but bolts when the shit hits the fan. I mean, he proclaims his love for her and then ends it by calling her a "Crazy Bitch"


How does any self respecting individual get like this?
I dont fucking know.
But it sure pisses me off that he isnt willing to work hard like the rest of us.
