Mildred, the church gossip, and self-appointed monitor
of the church's morals, kept sticking her nose into other
people's business. Several members did not approve of
her extra-curricular activities, but feared her enough to
maintain their silence.
She made a mistake, however, when she accused George,
a new member, of being an alcoholic after she saw his old
pickup parked in front of the town's only bar one afternoon.
She emphatically told George and several others that everyone
seeing it there would know what he was doing.
George, a man of few words, stared at her for a moment and
just turned and walked away. He didn't explain, defend, or deny.
He said nothing.
Later that evening, George quietly parked his pickup in front of
Mildred's house... walked home... and left it there all night.

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.
