Apply Mystery

I think someone left an apple on my desk.

Where Now?

I’ve been playing poker just about every night, but haven’t felt like writing about it. I’ve pretty much hit that point where I can play $2/4 limit hold’em on auto-pilot, so there really isn’t anything to make for good reading.
Early in the week I started to clear my bonus ($425) on UB. I was winning, [...]

Review: Blade Trinity

I’ve been a fan of the Blade movies so I was excited when I saw they were making Blade Trinity. How could I not be excited to watch Jessica Biel for a whole movie though?
The story is a little weak, but we’re talking about vampires and Dracula here, so it’s a little hard to make [...]

Addicted to Email

I’m not sure if there is another person in this world that checks their email as much as I do. Seriously, sometimes I’ll check it less than 5 minutes after the last time I checked. I think I have a problem. Does anyone else do this?

Tennis Tips

Mo has launched Tennis Tips, another great display of WordPress.

Which City is Your City?

American Cities That Best Fit Me:

80% San Diego

70% Austin

70% Denver

65% Honolulu

55% Atlanta

Which American Cities Best Fit You?
It’s interesting to see San Diego as the top choice. I really liked the city when I was out there last year and have plans to move to California in the next year or so.

Quoting Howard

While watching Howard Lederer play Razz on Full Tilt he said this…
NL is about making good laydowns
limit is about making good calls

Some Days

Accept that some days you’re the pigeon, and some days you’re the statue.

Review: Napoleon Dynamite

I really liked Napoleon Dynamite. Yes, it is stupid, but so stupid that it becomes funny.
Right away the movie was different. The opening credits were unlike any I’ve ever seen before. Most movies do the opening credits with computers and graphics, but MTV came up with something new for this one. Each name/credit was on [...]

A Little Shopping

Heather and Mom are visiting for the weekend, so we made a trip to the outlets in Birch Run yesterday. My plan was to buy some new polo shirts and maybe a few other things. I ended up spending over $300 on new clothes and shoes! What can I say? I’m a sucker for shopping. [...]

April Michigan Weather

On Tuesday it was a sunny 85 degrees here in Michigan and and Thursday night I mowed my lawn. Right now it’s in the low 30’s and snowing. Yes…it’s snowing in late April! There’s a Winter Weather Alert in effect through noon Sunday with up to 8 inches expected. Gotta love Michigan weather.

Party Hit 'n Run

Some quick hit ‘n run just before bed on Party Poker for $104 in 40 minutes split between $1/2 and $2/4. The AA streak is now at 17 in a row.

From Tilt to Party

Throughout this post I’ll be making a lot of sarcastic comments regarding online poker being rigged. This is due to the recent comments I’ve received on the post I just linked to. For the record I do not think online poker is rigged in any way, shape, or form.
After finishing off the Poker Stars bonus [...]

ChapStick Stains

I just spent the last 15 minutes putting Spray ‘n Wash on 2 pairs of pants, a pair of shorts, and 3 polo shirts. Some moron decided to leave Berry ChapStick in his pants pocket, so a whole load of clothes has pink stains on them. I’m probably out at least $100 because of that [...]

CamelBak

For anyone who rides a bike, I’d recommend getting a CamelBak.

Just received the following email from Flickr.

1. Double what you paid [...]
