You will lose, with rare exception. Now, let's talk about the holes in the Desert, many people have been resided there. That Wheel of Misfortune is quite appropriate. That's why it's a big secret, Great Video.

    The Wheel of Misfortune was painted inside one of several abandoned “thickener” pits at the Three Kids Mine, operated from 1917 to 1961. The pits were used to “leach a processing pulp” in the production of manganese. (Strait from google ;)
