“HI! I’m Sincere!” II
Thursday, November 16th, 2006*post continued* Perhaps I’ve not mentioned lately how much I enjoy playing poker when I have no stress to do anything, like a clock in my face, or some other issue that needs tending NOW! Back to the game that had me in stitches. I found out that the 9s’s name is Ryan. Stephanie pulled […]
“HI! I’m Sincere!”
Tuesday, November 14th, 2006I’m sincere when I tell you I laughed my ass off through most of my play in a $4-8H game at Bellagio last night. Sometimes you just have to be there to get the full effect, and for the most part, that’s exactly the way this is but I’ll try to paint the picture so […]
Is it my cruel streak or is it ok to laugh?
Monday, November 13th, 2006Of course I’m a lunatic about titles on Spam and the way they try to hook all of us in to opening, and reading their drivel and slop, that they should be shot for (through the legs so they can’t walk) and be forced to sit at the computer from hell for the rest of their […]

Enclosed with the gift was a card offering me congratulations on seven years…that would be the Memory Lane post. If you scroll to the bottom of that post and […]
Today’s Forecast
Wednesday, November 8th, 2006Sleepy with drooping, burning eyes, very little brain activity, an overly full stomach, with gusts of snoring on the horizon. In other words, this won’t be too long. I am alive, everything is OK, poker is still a very active part of my life, and I expect to be back in full force by late […]
Fern Canyon at Red Rock Canyon
Sunday, November 5th, 2006We got started a little later than I had planned but the hike was great. Not only does my son Dan play poker all of the time, he’s good at it. He was the person that dragged me out to Calico Basin for a mean climb up one of the ridges years ago, and forever […]
