Springing into action

Spring has peeked its reluctant head into Northeast Ohio the past few days, causing the 12-foot snow pack to drip like the post-nasal funk that has taken root in my head.

Mrs. Jones' remedy? A CIA-sanctioned waterboarding device known as a "Netti Pot" that is filled with a warm salt solution that you pour through your nostriles. It's a delightful sensation. But it does help, unlike the local HMO that says it no longer prescribes antiobiotics for sinus infections.

As for poker, my bankroll's been dripping as well. Through 12K hands of 6-max $50 and $25 PLO, I'm down a couple hundred bucks at $50, up slightly at $25. I'm not very good at this game yet. But I don't think I'm that bad, either. A handful of mistakes is the difference between winner and loser right now. Still too tight, too passive.

On the other hand, I've had a bit of success playing PLO tournaments. Go figure. I final tabled an $8.80 tournament Sunday (6th of 388 runners) as well as one last month (5th of 366 runners). And now that I think about it, I won the only live PLO tournament I've played. Notable hands from Sunday include 7-7-7-7 and 4-4-4-4. Also got A-A-K-K double suited for the first time I can recall.

In addition to my PLO shenanigans, I did win a CPMG tournament at Dave's since I last posted, breaking a streak of about a dozen live tournaments without a win. Got it done in a steady, unspectacular fashion. Hope to play again this weekend in the closing days of the POY points race.

Hello. My wife and I bought our house about 6 months ago. It was a foreclosure and we were able to get a great deal on it. We also took advantage of the 8K tax credit so that definitely helped. We did an extensive remodeling job and now I want to refinance to cut the term to a 20 or 15 year loan. Does anyone know any good sites for mortgage information? Thanks!

Mike

Good luck for the up and coming ones,

I hope the 'Netti Pot' is helping :)

I like joking, it wakes up the thought cells. Fantasy is a imperative ingredient in living, it's a functioning of looking at existence through the infernal ruin of a telescope. Which is what I do, and that enables you to laugh at life's realities.

To be a good benign being is to be enduring a kind of openness to the far-out, an ability to group undeterminable things beyond your own pilot, that can govern you to be shattered in very outermost circumstances for which you were not to blame. That says something very outstanding about the fettle of the honest life: that it is based on a conviction in the fitful and on a willingness to be exposed; it's based on being more like a spy than like a sparkler, something fairly feeble, but whose acutely item attraction is inseparable from that fragility.

Distress ferments the humors, casts them into their meet channels, throws substandard redundancies, and helps nature in those confidential distributions, without which the fuselage cannot subsist in its vigor, nor the soul fake with cheerfulness.
