Its crap like this that makes me wonder. I Mean since now that there are actual Prizes and AMAZING ONES AT THAT THANKS TO AL CAN'T HANG.

But now are we going to return to the Bitching about everyones play??? I mean wtf so so what that I just Played 2 and a half hours just to lose to a fucking terrible beat from a good Guy. I really mean that and the rest of this is not intended to point at him so dont take it that way.

But that is Poker and If you cant handle it then stop playing but for fuck sake cut out the Bullshit at the tables. I mean I know Don is good for atleast 2-3 good drunken rants. But so what that someone called your reraise preflop with whatever 2 fucking cards they are their cards and they have a right to play them as they see fit. Yes they may be fucking Morons but so fucking what they paid their money just like you and me.

[NumbBono]: well played
[NumbBono]: calling off those chips with 6-6
[NumbBono]: nice job
[NumbBono]: I don't know how you retards made it this far
Columbo777: just coin flipping
[NumbBono]: not really, but whatever
Columbo777: nothing i love better than being called a retard.
Columbo777: wtf?
[NumbBono]: I watch you play like crap every week, but you always get the best of me
Columbo777: I make a questionable call with 66 against a short stack and I play like crap every week?!
Columbo777: wtf?
MoFo_69: lol
MoFo_69: cant we all just get along
MoFo_69: or is everyone going to get pissy when they lose now?

But the Only Problem with the BBT3 is that we will see more and more of this Boorish Behavior. I am sure we will have record turnouts with all the fantastic prizes that Al managed to secure from Full Tilt Poker.

Only in America .....do drugstores make the sick walk all the way to the back of the store to get their prescriptions while healthy people can buy cigarettes at the front.

Only in America .....do people order double cheeseburgers, large fries, and a diet coke.

Only in America .....do banks leave both doors open and then chain the pens to the counters.

Only in America .....do we leave cars worth thousands of dollars in the driveway and put our useless junk in the garage.

Only in America .....do we buy hot dogs in packages of ten and buns in packages of eight.

Only in America .....do we use the word 'politics' to describe the process so well: 'Poli' in Latin meaning 'many' and 'tics' meaning 'bloodsucking creatures'.

Only in America .....do they have drive-up ATM machines with Braille lettering.

EVER WONDER....

Why the sun lightens our hair, but darkens our skin ?

Why women can't put on mascara with their mouth closed?

Why don't you ever see the headline "Psychic Wins Lottery"?

Why is "abbreviated" such a long word?

Why is it that doctors call what they do "practice"?

Why is lemon juice made with artificial flavor, and dishwashing liquid made with real lemons?

Why is the man who invests all your money, called a broker?

Why is the time of day with the slowest traffic called rush hour?

Why isn't there mouse-flavored cat food?

Why didn't Noah swat those two mosquitoes?


Why do they sterilize the needle for lethal injections?

You know that indestructible black box that is used on airplanes? Why don't they make the whole plane out of that stuff?!

Why don't sheep shrink when it rains?

Why are they called apartments when they are all stuck together?

If con is the opposite of pro, is Congress the opposite of progress?

If flying is so safe, why do they call the airport the terminal?

Now that you've smiled at least once, it's your turn to spread the stupidity and send this to someone you want to bring a smile to (maybe even a chuckle)...in other words, send it to everyone. We all need to smile every once in a while.

      Motivation is a problem today. I am flying to California tommorrow for my sisters wedding on saturday and I Just want this day to end. But it just doesn't want too. even after I get out from the Shop I have to go home and walk the dogs, Pack and then get dressed to go to my Bartending Gig at Worcester's Home of the Blues till 2am.Then I get to go Home and walk the dogs shower and leave for the airport for my 7am flight. So I can be reunited with the Wonkettes. I got a tearfull call from my oldest wonkette who was melting down after a long day at Disney Land. It is the one thing that always makes me smile That my daughter loves and misses me so much. I Know I am not the Best dad but I try my best. Sometimes I wonder though Would they be better off without me?? But then calls like that and I know why I stay.

So 26 hours till my flight. I was hoping it would be WARM in California but I guss I will have to settle for Warmer than Worcester, Mass. mid 50's boooo. Hope everyone has a great weekend I know I will.

Peace
Drop the hammer

My Wife Left and Took the Kids.

Well I should be grateful she didn't take my dog or the truck right?

Their Flight to Cali for my sisters upcoming wedding was at 8am. She spoke to the doctor yesterday and informed him that.

1. she was feeling better.
2. she was going to cali no matter what he said.

Phew disaster Avoided. The kids missing disney would have been bad. But as I predicted the other day they split down the middle. The oldest Wonkette said she wasn't going without Mrs. Wonka. The Youngest who is my Mini Me said she would go with my Parents cause there was no way she was going to miss out on Disney Land.

So As of 5:15 this morning I am separated from my wife. The house did seem quiet this morning. I could actually get used to this.

Now I just have to find something to do with myself for the next 2 nights. I guess I could just do what I usually do which is Stay in and Play Poker online. Tonight is Bodog Blogger Tournament.
