There used to be a saying, "Truth is stranger than fiction". Apparently that has been reversed. But hey, it's a lot easier to believe what you WANT to believe.
If a hammy little six year old kid does a little dance at the family Thanksgiving get-together and Uncle Dumbass rewards him with a shiny new Quarter, is he a "Pro Performer" or a "home player". It's all in your definition of a "Pro" or a "performer". From my perspective, Bill (Abacus) is entirely correct. Besides, who cares how you label yourself as long as you're happy and having fun.
