  • Phil Keaggy Acoustic Sketches “CD”

    If you read this post, then you know that I intended to purchase Acoustic Sketches by Phil Keaggy. Today, I did just that. How/where will be the subject of my next post. I listened to the entire album today, I like it a lot. Just Phil, no complications with other instruments or musicians. […]

  • November 2007 Poker Summary

    Very short post this time around. I didn’t get to play too much this month, but a reasonable amount nonetheless. I already reported on the one live tourney here, with excellent results in that one. 🙂 I’m posting this early because we have dinner plans tonight so I know I won’t be playing […]

  • Decent Result in Sunday Poker Tourney

    Well, the title gives it all away. You don’t need to read any further. 🙂 Seriously, a minor cash, but even the worst prize in the weekly tourney is a good one, when you don’t pay full freight to get in. This is my third post of the day, and all three end […]

  • Theme Updated Again

    OK, this is the last announcement of something as silly as a theme change. Since I specifically mentioned which theme I was using in the last post, I didn’t want anyone who visited now to think that they were viewing that theme. I think they did a very nice job, very attractive, but […]

  • Sprucing up my WordPress Theme and Plugins a Bit

    I’ve been accused in the past (by Jamie) of being a little boring with this site. That’s code for being a luddite, I’m sure. It’s also true. I have been using the default WP theme since I started blogging, and only recently added a few plugins. Well, tada, that’s all changed now. As […]

  • New iPods = New Joy + New Headaches

    I have a good friend (let’s call him Ed, because that’s his real first name) who is perhaps the worlds best gift giver. I am embarrassed to admit how many amazing gifts he has given me over the years. I have reciprocated on rare occasion, and I’m sure that while my gifts pleased […]

  • Another Sunday Poker Loss

    Here are my notes, nothing to add… 949 entrants, top 100 paid Finally got to use one of my two previously won entries into the weekly big one. As you (may) know, we’ve been busy the past few weekends (all good stuff), and I haven’t been able to play much online poker in […]

  • October 2007 Poker Update

    October was not a good month economically. That said, I had an excellent month of winning qualifiers, including three in one week to the weekly big tourney, so it wasn’t all bad. I only got to use one in October, as we’ve been much busier on weekends than usual (if you read my […]

  • Dumb Play in Weekly Poker Tourney

    Well, the notes say it all… ********************************* 896 entrants, top 90 paid I had some time to play in qualifiers this week. I won three seats, so in addition to playing in this one, I have two additional entries that I can use on any future Sunday. In addition, I also came in […]

  • NBC Got It Right

    I’m a complete sucker for sitcoms. Even stupid ones make me laugh. Yes, I can distinguish between a good one and a horrible one, but like I said, even most horrible ones make me laugh. Unfortunately, the same isn’t true for Lois. She really loves to laugh, and there are some sitcoms that […]
