Game Review – The Three Stooges
The Three Stooges are one of the classic comedy teams of all time. Their distinctive brand of slapstick kept a whole generation laughing and changed comedy forever. Now there are a couple ways you could celebrate this talented trio. You could do some drunken eBay-ing and somehow wind up with a very expensive 24 DVD [...]
Friday the 13ths
Tomorrow should be a very, very good day for gambling. I would strongly recommend you buy a lottery ticket, play some video poker here, or do something risky like skydiving, because days this lucky don’t come along very often. And what makes it so lucky? Just look at a calendar. Two weeks earlier was a [...]
Game Review – Happy Golden Ox of Happiness
The other day I was pretty sad about Mickey Rourke not winning an Academy Award, or making any of the “Best Dressed at the Oscars” lists. But instead of drowning my sorrows drinking vodka and watching “9 and a half Weeks” like I usually do, I hopped on over here to Silver Oak to play [...]

Why gambling is safer than beer pong
So apparently there’s been a big rise in the rates of herpes amongst university students. And it’s not just due to all their unprotected fornicating. We know that because university students have always been prone to fornication, so it’s not exactly a new thing. No, the recent rise in herpes rates has been blamed on [...]
Game Review – Rudolph’s Revenge
Anybody who’s ever watched any of the “Santa Clause” movies has probably fantasized about terrible things happening to Santa. I’m guessing the makers of Rudolph’s Revenge (play it here) dislike Tim Allen as much as I do, because this is one twisted slot machine. And that’s what makes it awesome. It’s not very often that [...]
Oscars Trivia
Tomorrow is the big night, so here’s some fun facts and numbers about the Academy Awards: 3,400 – Seating capacity of the Kodak Theater.It’s actually 3,401 but they’re keeping a seat empty in case Angelina Jolie bears another child during the ceremony. 14 – Most nominations received by any film.

Watch the Oscars, Win $500 at Silver Oak Casino
A lot of kids dream of being glamorous movie stars or playing lead guitar for a kick ass rock band when they grow up. I went through a short phase right after I saw “This Is Spinal Tap” in ’84 where I wanted to be both an actor AND a rockstar. Needless to say, I [...]

Who’s Going to Win at the Oscars?
We’re only a few days away from the biggest, schmooziest night on the Hollywood calendar. And if you’re like me, you’re thinking, “I’m probably not going to actually win an Oscar (even one for Best Costume Design) but there must be a way for me to actually get that winning feeling on Sunday night.” And [...]
