what ot be eating tonight?
we had chicken patties with melted meunster cheese and spaghetti sauce which was not fancy, but very good. The pudding parfait my wife made for dessert was nothing short of amazing. Vanilla pudding, whipped cream, chocolate pudding. all topped with a dollop of whipped cream and crushed oreo cookies. I woke up to eat that and was not disappointed!

mom's having open heart surgery next week
thx for the thoughts and prayers all. I just got home a few hours ago and it was so hard to leave. My baby bro is there with her now. She made it through the surgery well. They took her off the ventilator today and she was looking good for a while, but they are thinking that there's a chance they may have to intubate her again. Said there's just been so much damage that it may take her a little longer to recover. I think she's going to be fine in the long run and u guys were right about Vandy. Couldn't ask for a better, more caring staff. They are awesome and have done/are doing such a bang ...

mom's having open heart surgery next week
Hey all. Gotta drive to Arkansas from Ohio to pick up my mom and then to Tennessee so she can have open heart surgery on Tuesday next week. I know she'll probably be ok, but still freaking out a little. Anyone with anything good to say about their experiences at Vanderbilt would be greatly appreciated.

Grinding Micro SNG Turbos: Where I'm at + need some input
i agree with Mattieboy. ur sample size is too small to know if you know what you are doing in the 45s or are just experiencing variance. I played the $.25's and $.10 until I got to $25 and then I continued, but would take a few shots at the $1.40 90s. I would say that as long as you have over the 100 buy ins, then take a shot here or there at just the next level up. You can PM me any time.

I'd love to get any feedback. as you'll see, somehow screwed up the first one and had to start again cuz I didn't know how to correct it. you're gonna see my flaws in the blog and my successes. 1st one is all poker, but they won't all be. Thanks for letting me be a part of OT and gn for now!

I have had a few..(poker career discussion)..effin bibliography
why do I always end up reading just about every word in posts like that' I know I'm never gonna be able to get that time back... i would give some advice, but doesn't sound like this kid has any integrity and wouldn't follow any good advice anyways, so I'm gonna fold on the flop.

question for the married OTers
we were together over 9 years before marriage but we decided we wanted to get a house first since our apartment wasn't very child friendly. Other wise we would have married about year 3 or 4. If you dont live with someone for at least a year prior to marriage I would bet 9 time out of 10 you wind up divorced. I call BS and take that bet for any (micro) stakes you want ;)

50 left in $2.20 180 man what to do with 4x opening...
thx for the advice all. this, especially is very helpful. i really debated what to do at the time, but did end up jamming and wanted to make sure that it wasn't the wrong play. I thought it was just as likely he was doing this with hands like KQ and almost any ace, but just wanted to see what you guys thought.

Worst chain restaurant
I actually didn't mind OG until their prices went up about 35% here locally. White Castle blows chunks. During hell week when I was in college we were woken up and taken to the white castle in Cincinatti!
