Long Hair :)

A young boy had just gotten his driver's permit and
inquired of his father, a minister, if they could discuss
his use of the car.
His father said, "I'll make a deal with you. You bring your
grades up from a C to a B average, study your Bible a little,
get your hair cut and we'll talk about the car."
Well, the boy thought about that for a moment, and decided
that he'd settle for the offer, and they agreed on it.
After about six weeks, they went into the study where his
fathersaid, "Son, I've been real proud. You brought your grades
up, and I've observed that you have been studying your Bible,
and participating a lot more in the Bible study groups. But, I'm
real disappointed, since you haven't gotten your hair cut."
The young man paused a moment, and then said, "You know,
Dad, I've been thinking about that, and I've noticed in my studies
of the Bible that: Samson had long hair, John the Baptist had long
hair, and Moses had long hair and there's even a strong argument
that Jesus had long hair."
To this his father replied, "Did you also notice that they all
walked everywhere they went?"

At GameColony.com you can play games of skill only -- play for free or play for $prizes!.
According to the statutes of most states in the United States, gambling is defined as: "risking something of value upon the outcome of a contest of chance". (Also see No Gambling!). The skill (as opposed to chance) is predominant in games of skill. Playing games of skill for $prizes, therefore, has nothing to do with gambling as it is not a contest of chance -- the more skillful player will win far more often. The chance element of a 'gamble' is either insignificant or missing. When players compete in tournaments or games of skill for $prizes -- it is "competitive entertainment" rather then "gambling". The more skilled winner will always win more matches, tournaments and $prizes.
