The Wager between Landru and Mudboy Slim
The Terms:
Landru: They go after the punk, say, within the next year beginning today...Tuesday August 13th, 2002? "I'll FedEx ya a case of Hienekens, a case of Milwaukee's finest bratwursts (fresh from the elfs at Usinger's ~you'll have to supply your own buns & condiments...), & a box of Garcia & Vegas' best."
Slim: Yer on, my FRiend...beer, brats and stoagies will provide much motivation fer the late night FReepin' excapades!!
Landru: "If they *don't*?? I'd like to know what I'll be getting from the Mud Cave out there in ol' Virginny?"
Slim: Hmmmm...on the unlikely chance that our efforts fail, I'll gladly send you a case of Legends Ale (good stuff from the local microbrewery), a big ol' Smithfield Ham, and a box of Macanudos.
Slim: T-Mac's goin' DOWN!!
Slim: FReegards...MUD
The Status:
Today, November 13, 2002, marks the end of the first quarter of this infamous bet from Black IX. As the appointed judge, I, the fair and unbalanced Sultan, do hereby report that on Day 91 of this year-long wager, Terry McAuliffe has not been indicted. Therefore, Landru is winning, (unfortunately).
Mudboy Slim continues his losing ways.

Ah, thank you. Much clearer now. Landru may have the winning end of that bet -- it takes a good long while for criminal indictments to get handed up on white collar cases. Although it does warm my heart to see someone take the other side of the bet -- the kind of blind optimism that keeps this country going!
I assume, although it's not stated, that both sides will be reporting taxes on their winnings. :D
