I love Pogo. I love Word Whomp, the slots, solitaire and most of all, Turbo 21. These online games of chance have me obsessed. I play them whenever I can (though, just in case anyone from the office comes across this blog, NEVER during work). I am not very good at any of these games, but that does not deter me from spending as much time as I can playing them. Before work in the morning, while watching the news, and truth to tell, right now. Turbo 21 is open on another screen right now, and I'm hastily typing this entry during the intermission. If I get carpal tunnel, it won't be from writing scintillating financial services copy, it will be from Pogo.
What is it about casino games that hook us? Is it the promise that next time it will be better? I think so. Next time I'll be successful. Next time I'll win. It's the romance of next time.
And, if you dare, www.pogo.com
