Table Tango

I rarely have time to visit some of the best blogs on the internet, and they don’t necessarily have to be poker theme based to be great, but of course my main interest is poker so that’s normally where I end up. Tonight I visited Maudie’s brain wandering induced ink trails, and one of the things she mentioned in her September 11th post (ouch ‘911′) was poker burn-out or blogger/poker burn-out or something that she felt moved her into the select group of a few others that were wondering if they could continue ‘poker’ blogging.

No Creamy Vanilla Smoothie or Redi-cat-2 on today’s menu. My son gave me a ride to the Endoscopy Center and he arrived early so I had him drop me off early. I got there an hour before my appointment. Not to worry, they were running behind and it was two hours after my appointment time that they finally called my name. Kee-rist!

Our poker playing rights are at stake! Make sure you take the time, make the call, scream and yell, do everything within your power to keep us from being told we can’t play poker on the internet. Now is the time to act, don’t delay, tomorrow may be too late, and now that I’ve given all the commands and demands, the following is an email from the Poker Player’s Alliance: (more…)

Adrift in a sea of stars, I slip behind a filmy cover for a moment in time. A gentle fringe of light gives me away as I prepare to pose in my purest, truestform. (more…)
