Words continue to evolve and loose their meaning...kinda sad to see this one go. I'm not fancy but every now and again I enjoy a bit 'O' the Prime but the name doesn't't mean what it used to.

In case you didn't notice (there's no way you didn't) betting is legal online in Ohio. Good bad, don't know. But how much are they making? Cause they are spending like they're printing the stuff.
