Not much to blog about lately. It’s a little after 10 Sunday morning, I just woke up. There is another sprinkle of white stuff on the ground, second day in a row. I’m sure Jean will like it, she told me; I hope there is lots of snow when we go to Karl and Trudy’s because I was telling Joan how beautiful it is up north when everything is covered in white up there. I could care less about the white stuff but I am looking forward to next weekend. After the old ladies are tucked away in bed, Karl and I are going to sneak away to Casino Rama and try our luck playing Texas Hold’em. For practice I played two tournaments on-line last night but didn’t do that well. In the first game I had a bad beat. There was a guy at the table playing very aggressive and mid way through the tournament he forced me all-in with an ace king suited. He beat me with a pair of jacks that hit on the river, which left me with a little over 400 chips. The very next hand I was dealt the big slick again. This time they were not suited but thought it was a sign anyway and pushed all my chips in and lost again. In the second I tried playing more conservative lasted longer in the tournament but didn’t get any cards and eventually just ran out of chips. I have never spent more than $20 at a casino in my life because I usually just play the slot machine and really don’t enjoy it that much. I do like playing Texas Hold’em though; we’ll see how much I enjoy it after dropping a $100 or so at the table. I should probably go into the casino with a more positive attitude.

Anyway, I’m always looking for things to blog about but nothing of interest has happened to me lately, not that that has stopped me from blogging about nothing before. I did see a license plate last week that read DAUL FN and a bumper sticker that said, TV Sucks – Ride Your Bike, which I thought both suited me but neither one is blog worthy on their own. I will mention a web site that John showed me, it’s “alluc.org”. They have movies, TV shows, cartoons (Laurie it even has Mr. Magoo) that you can watch without downloading. I caught-up on all The Office episodes that I missed from seasons one through three and John and I watched the movies Jack-Ass II and Borat. Anyway check it out and enjoy. I’m off to get groceries before the stores get too crowded.

Thanks Mike I'm allways looking for new sites but don't like to surf through all the crap out there to find one half decent site. Glad your blogging even if nothing much is happening. I try to do one or two posts a week but it isn't allways easy.

just a bit of advice your mom should have taught you.
