Extremely funny Chilly.
Lewis Wilbanks cracked me up and had everyone in the office looking at me like I was crazy.
You need some Poker Champisms in there. May I suggest "The Tourist" (A7o), "Tourist" (naturally), "LOLOL," and "Play like a Champion Today."
Feel free to include Luckbox or Jackhammer :-)
If you look up Luckbox in the dictionary, there is a picture of CJ.
Ha!
