They understand the thrill AND what an expensive high that thrill is. We 
all do, but many of our expensive highs are not as accessible as the 
computer in the next room and are therefore less dangerous. The poker 
with which you were so obsessed was Online poker, wasn't it? :)

Chasing these highs is exactly what takes a person away from "having a 
life." And I'm not talking about bars a night clubs either. I'm married, 
35 years old, and have never had a drink in my life - nightclubs hold 
little fascination.
