14 days and counting...

... Until I leave for the Origins Gaming convention in Columbus, Ohio. Being a competitive card player, I look forward to these events all year. The summer convention season is my 'vacation'. This year I hope to cover my expense with winning in the two major events I am participating in. Granted I can't replace the money I have already put forward for Hotel and airline tickets, but if I can break even that works for me. It is really unfortunate that the worst card games are the ones that offer the most money to participate. But that's OK, UDE will eventually see how fruitless it is to ignore the local gaming community altogether.

I don't get Michael Jackson, never have, and never will, but I do have this to say. There is alot that is 'not right' with him, and just because the LA County prosecutors can't find him guilty of his most recent accusation, does not mean he doesn't need to be locked up. However we cannot arrest people just because they are a danger to society. Wait just a second... But, I guess there are more people that are more dangerous than the image that Michael Jackson portrays to young people. I am just at a loss as to what that might be.
