Is he serious? I will never understand why people let terrorist rule their lives, I will never change my plans because of terrorist that is giving them the satisfaction they are seeking. I have a feeling this article has an a hidden motive for some reason it seems weird he would write this.

Guestblamed for killing more than 825 people
I don’t know. I agree with your principal but would I take my family there?
fate has too often taught me the hard way that if given chance …it’ll bite you in the ass.
what a shame to admit but I’d probably do same.
alterior motive? perhaps but its got enough sell on a legit level that i’m not sure it matters.
I’d want to know about this issue if I was going there. way before hand!

Guestre-reading my post I apologize B … I didn’t mean to come off sounding like such a worry monger … but at same time … well put it this way, I know a lot of old worriers but not so many old adventurers lol.
please be safe and remember you’re not bullet proof just because you’re loved ones aren’t there to worry about. come back and tell me all I missed and we’ll both be happy.
* I don’t know why but I’ve been extremely philisophical today and everybody’s getting a dose. Poor Yaniv from Rewards Affs writes me he has taken a relationship to the next level and he gets back half a novel about all the good things and all the bad things … I probably traumatized him so badly he’s ready to marry one minute and kill her to avoid it the next.
** and haven’t lost all of my weird sense of humor. Told him I’d been married three times and thus the 4th is the charm. … but the 3rd wasn’t all that bad because by then I had the experience to know to go ahead and kill her early on so as to avoid all that nasty nagging etc … that one might encounter towards the end of a relationship. And its a great way to avoid giving up half your stuff.
*** just kidding girls. You know what I really mean is the exact opposite of whatever may have offended you. But if I said it that way the men would get all sensitive and emotionally bankrupt and lose what little self-esteem they’ve managed to muster etc … so .. that’s why.
man I’m onery today.

MemberWhile the Basque Seperatists do occasionally do a small bombing there has been no mention of anything recently by the US media or the BBC. The article at Gambling911 is silly.
We love working with Gambling911 and I am probably one of the biggest Jenny Woo fans on the planet, but business is tight right now for everyone including G911 and they cant afford the travel and attendence costs for EIG.
Unfortunately their rates have gotten so high (five figures plus expenses) we cant justify sponsoring their coverage of CAP Euro Barcelona.
Their article was a face saving effort as I am sure sponsors THEY are working with are asking them for meetings in Barcelona and they are embarrassed to say they wont be there.
I am going to have the events team reach out to them and if we can find an economical solution for Chris and The Woo and crew to join us I would love to see them in Barcelona. They are a real hoot to party with and right now I am day dreaming about Jenny Woo in a tight little dress shaking it on the dance floor at our parties. Shwing!

InactiveWell in Pakistan a bomber bombed the police and killed dozens, In China a there was an attack on police that killed about 10.
DON’T STAY at POLICE STATIONS in Pakistan and China!
Let’s get real, if you’re willing to visit NY or Las Vegas or London, etc. then you have the same sort of risk as in Barcelona.
I think the Prof hit on the head – they cant afford the travel and attendence costs for EIG. So, if you can’t be there to report, hype a stupid idea like “Gambling Conference Targeted by Terrorists”, now they’re the center of the conversation, hundreds of people visit their sites and the industry is busy discussing whether this is anything to really to worry about.
Brilliant publicity campaign
