A New, Direct Advertiser On Kukla’s Korner

As always, when a new, direct advertiser appears on Kukla’s Korner, I like to inform readers about the services they offer.

Today, a little background on Betfair.

KK: Let’s start with the basics, what is Betfair?

The easiest way to answer that question is to look at a traditional bookmaker. The ‘bookie’ offers you odds on an event and you simply have a choice of whether you want to take them or not. Those guys build a big fat margin into their odds, partly because they can, and partly because they are taking the risk (and want to cover the times when the results go against them).

The All-Star Break Has Arrived

Next Tuesday, 26 NHL teams take to the ice to begin the push for the playoffs.

Until then, posting in the KK Hockey section will be in relaxed mode.

Time to re-charge the batteries since I don’t see a day off until mid-June.

Sure I will be posting, I am not going to some exotic island for four days in the sun, so I will be following all the NHL action but not as closely as I usually do.

My question to you, what are you going to do without NHL regular season play for five days?

Before We Get Back To Hockey

I received a Green Cheek Conure as a Christmas gift and need to pick it up tomorrow.

I really don’t know much about birds and wondered if some of you have this as a pet?

Is so, please let me know what to expect.

Thanks.

I know I do.

I am anxiously awaiting visiting with family and friends over the next 30 hours or so.

I do hope all of you who visit Kukla’s Korner have a safe and wonderful Christmas and pass on the holiday spirit.

Be safe and I will be back on Monday morning.

In the meantime, starting around 6:00pm tonight, I have set up some Christmas related posts to hit KK every 1-3 hours through early Christmas morning.

Enjoy!
