    I suspect OTT has access to NSA databases or maybe clairvoyance is at work here. I'm lucky to find 6 or 7 provable ones in a day. :dunno:

    I shouldn't do San Diego either. I end up just looking at the houses and the views. Anyplace else I could care less.

    Getting the qual is a PITA, and he doesn't pay for the hits if you cant find them. It takes an absurd amount of persistence to make the money on them that @oldtimeturker did.

    Yeah, I don't bother with San Diego or Canada either. I did pretty good last Sunday (168.50) and this past Friday (147.00), plus lots of unit numbers.
