Might have just hit a 2 outer on the river

To do list, figure out how to put HTML in this blog.

I sprung an air leak on my truck today. Air is very important in a truck, as several systems operate on air pressure. The most important of these is the brake system!

Luckily, I was unhooked from my trailer and already at a truck stop with a repair bay.

Long story short, it's the air line to move my transmission from low range to high range. My transmission was stuck in high range, so if I'd been hooked up to a trailer, it would have been very bad.

I don't know how much it's going to cost yet, but I bet the total bill will be less than the tow bill would have been had I been on the interstate.

I'm in shock, will clean this post later

OK, Poker Stars has these Ante Up MTTs. The blinds are 5/5 and they stay that way all the way through. The antes go up every round, so it pays to limp a lot.

100 registered, 15 paid, 17 left, I'm in 5th.

Chip leader had been a bully. He was up to 50k, then lost a hand, and dropped to 2nd. I had been playing a great game, picking up uncontested pots, hitting a few big ones, very few medium or big losses.

I felt like Mike McDermott when Teddy showed him Aces Full.

Edit: Flash isn't working for some reason, and I'm in no mood to figure it out:\

1000 games

I've lost something like 30 in a row. I hate these. I think I might be hurting my game now.

I am still alive

1000 game challenge is still on. I got a bit sidetracked. Won a seat to AIPS this month, and I plan on winning my 2nd Banana.

We're relocating to Pocahontas, IL the last week of July. It's about 35 miles out of St Louis, Mo for those of you who don't know the area.

Has anyone else noticed Walmart's new packaging? They've changed their store brand products to look more like the 80's generic packaging. Fits right in with their recent ad campaign. Being frugal is in now. Guess I was a bit of a trend setter.

Not a lot else to report.
