days gone bad. That’s how Wednesday went. Set the alarm, crank myself out of bed because I never sleep when I know I should. Must be the four year old in me…no wonder Riot and I relate so well. I made Las Vegas by 10 a.m. Meaning I was a few hours early for my dental appointment and that made me happy. Continue reading Some days are just

John McCain is trying to save us
from ourselves. Kee-rist! Do people ever get tired of trying to force other people to think like they do and behave according to some credo that would make all of us a bunch of stereo type dummies? Continue reading John McCain is trying to save us
Some bits n pieces
PokerWorks’ HORSE tournament was so damned much fun. It’s one of the few tournaments I’ve played in that I really had a lot of fun. You can pick up the final tournament report here. And we will have another one set to go – same format, buy-in, etc. – checking here will keep you updated. Continue reading Some bits n pieces
Poker-minus brain cells-minus BR=
some sort of insanity. I’ve had some bad runs before but this one is close to topping the charts. Of course I’m a donkey, there was never a doubt. I’m sure I pitch hands that I should be charging into the pot with, I see others do it and they win, but I’m in the run where nothing I throw away would drag the chips. That did change on one hand yesterday, but it was brief mistake made by the Card Fairy as she tried to lure me into playing ATC when I was desperately trying to make the $ in a $2.20 180 man turbo SNG. I would have made a FH with 8-6 off had I cared to dump the last of my chips into the pot UTG. I didn’t. I did make the $ and got back a win of around $2.

Life in the Slow Lane
I think I’m there. Life isn’t slow for me however. I have a continual run of things to do but not too many places to go. Except yesterday I had several stops to make around town and managed to accomplish all in about a 3 hour time span. Pahrump is pretty damned big, not congested with traffic and people streaming across the streets but BIG, sprawling, everything is spread out without a central downtown type of core.

Missing Girl – Help

Sandpoint Idaho
Round Lake State park, the trip North, the family reunion, whatever name it should be tagged under, it was definitely an event. This year, for some reason that I can’t put my finger on, it was different. It was fun and everyone had a good time and we played poker for three days, but yet it was just different…the feel of the whole thing seemed more like it was geared to neutral than in years past.

Check out this beauty
There’s a wonderful skin caressing breeze tonight, just enough of a wild feel to it to make me want to go out and bathe in this beauty:
The dull roar
Either I haven’t been home long enough or I’m just a lousy time manager because I’m still a bit time stressed and have too much to do. I wonder about people that go home from work and ‘kill time’. How? Time doesn’t need to be killed, it spins off relentlessly, taking its toll on everything, and eventually kills us. Continue reading The dull roar
Home
I pulled into Vegas around 3 p.m. Had things to pick up at the old digs and had to see my buddy Riot. He had a tiz because he couldn’t come to grandmom’s today. I made the new digs by around 6 and managed to get level, unhitched, hooked up, and I’m not even crawling. I think I died a few hours ago. Sure there are gaps that need to be filled in. check back.
