stoxblocked

well, we made it to Philly and back. the results were poor, and could barely have been worse. but, it was a great experience.

the game was played at a very high level, with a high level of intensity. it took me two games to get my bearings. i think i ended up with a -3 for the tourney. and i think i led the team in +/- oh well, gotta start somewhere

Poker: it’s been that long that i just noticed that Stoxpoker and CR are the same now. and i pulled the subscription to CR ’cause i wasn’t using it. the Stoxpoker video library is getting assimilated, and it’s seems to have an uncertain outcome as far as what vids make the new library and what ones don’t, blah, blah, blah. i only checked because i thought i’d pick up where i left off.

my DC account has been active, and unused since the beginning of the year. the big “duh” is simply to pick up over there. i feel the need to watch some vids and go through some forums before i sit down at a table again, that’s for sure. and after this long of a layoff, it very may well be starting over.

i know that i’m feeling a draw to the game for the first time in forever. and i don’t think in a bad way. don’t be surprised if i start posting about the game again, and it all reads like kindergarten level understanding of NLHE.

DRUMS: rock bnad has a benefit gig – Relay for Life – this friday night, at 12:30 am. we’re the last band to perform for the evening, at the high school stadium. haven’t headlined a stadium show before. lol. will probably have a quick practice earlier that night.

have blues band practice tonight. will set the tape recorder in motion for that, and i expect some interesting results. blues band gig next saturday.

FLYERS: have undergone a complete transformation, except maybe Pronger and Gagne, and perhaps Carcillo. coburn and carle are no longer battling for the title of “human turnover machine”, Giroux has stopped performing that one extra fancy move where he turns it over in the neutral zone and it ends up in our net. briere is scoring goals – although his D is spotty.

it’s as though they finally get it. as a result, we’re two games away from a spot in the Stanley Cup Championship.

ok, off to face the day while the caffeine is working.
