I’d like to wish all of you men and women a Happy Mother’s Day.  A lot of men filled the role of mom so…*cheers…app-p-p-plause…whistles* Continue reading Mom’s Day →

Tomorrow this gal is up by 5 and out the door by 7 a.m.  My dental appointment (“D” Day) got moved up a few hours.  No charity report pictures, no nothing, I spent a busy day but it wasn’t at the computer, and I didn’t get a lot of fun things done.  Plus I was still FAP-ed (fair access policy horse pucky) until late this evening which means the internet was a snail on super glue.  Now I’m debating if I need to find a new game plan for internet access…depressing thought.  Back before you know it!

I had planned a post today on the Agassi Charity Tournament – with pictures – and got nowhere, for one thing I’m being FAP-ed again by my satellite connection (Fair Access Policy).  I haven’t exceeded useage in the time restriction zone but I have 3 pcs and they all apparently need a Window’s update and 14 things at the same time, so my connection keeps going straight to hell.  Continue reading Order of Posting Changed →

Is to be sprawled out on my sleep by number bed by 10 p.m. and ready to toast off to z-z-z-z-z land.  I’m up early tomorrow and heading in to Vegas to play the Agassi Charity tournament and hope I can keep my wits and focus about me long enough to make a good showing…like I know how to play poker type of showing.  I won’t even venture into the winning the tournament BS.  I’ve gotten stuck in the land of the UGLIES again.  I won’t bore you with the beats since you have your own, you certainly don’t want to dwell on mine too.  So… Continue reading My tonight goal →

The trip into Vegas yesterday was an ‘in and out’ and went pretty damn smooth.  I have to admit I was surprised to see the ‘M resort and Casino on I-15 to LA at the St Rose Parkway Exit.  Wheeler RV is just past that on Las Vegas BLVD, and I spent a bit of frustrated angry time out there the first year I had the coach.  The whole freeway exchange has changed…but that was in progress the last time I was out that way.  The casino surprised me. Why would it though?  Drive down a street you haven’t been on in 6 months and something has been imploded, exploded, remodeled, destroyed and razed, or a whole new structure has been born.

Poker, in a sense, is my vice.  My love to hate to play symptoms run hot and cold as I look at all the cards that lead to a busted bankroll.  And I’m playing right now on PokerStars in a $3.30 re-buy tourney, guaranteed 50K prize pool.  I took the add-on immediately and have now made it thru almost 4K players.  I’m in the dough, but not enough dough to be happy about.  Yah, human nature to always want the top of the ladder and the biggest pile of cash.  There are 201 players left.  I need to outlast them because I can’t outplay the bastards.

There are a lot of things that I’ve purposely left out of Tango over the years.  Some of it is close to being too personal to write about but it has ‘shock factor’ that draws an audience and might be great for hits, yet I’m really not positive that I want to give up that kind of information about the underbelly of what goes on in my life and yet I do write about a large portion of my life here.  I’ve considered carrying two diaries – one that is here, the above the table kind of things that are easily written and portray a level above the human carnage – the other kept privately that exposes everything that I’m privy too, feel, experience, and tends to pave a direction to a better understanding of… Continue reading Feeding a sickness →
