How I did in Blogger Poker Tour event today
A couple hands into it, I was the first player out :(
I had a full house and was beaten by 4 of a kind for all my chips. I was good until the river though (my 3 of a kind beat his until the board paired on the river and gave him 4 of a kind)

Somebody said it takes about six weeks to get back to normal after you've had a baby
somebody doesn't know that once you're a mother, "Normal," is history.
Somebody said you learn how to be a mother by instinct
Somebody never took a three-year-old shopping.
Somebody said being a mother is boring .....
Somebody never rode in a car driven by a teenager with a driver's permit.
Somebody said if you're a "good" mother, your child will "turn out good."
Somebody thinks a child comes with directions and a guarantee.
Somebody said "good" mothers never raise their voices .
Somebody never came out the back door just in time to see her child hit a golf ball through the neighbor's kitchen window.
Somebody said you don't need an education to be a mother.
Somebody never helped a fourth grader with her math.
Somebody said you can't love the fifth child as much as you love the first.
Somebody doesn't have five children.
Somebody said a mother can find all the answers to her child-rearing questions in the books ........
Somebody never had a child stuff beans up his nose or in his ears.
Somebody said the hardest part of being a mother is labor and delivery ....
Somebody never watched her "baby" get on the bus for the first day! of kindergarten.
or on a plane headed for military "boot camp."
Somebody said a mother can do her job with her eyes closed and one hand tied behind her back .......
somebody never organized four giggling Brownies to sell cookies.
Somebody said a mother can stop worrying after her child gets married ..
Somebody doesn't know that marriage adds a new son or daughter-in-law a to a mother's heartstrings.
Somebody said a mother's job is done when her last child leaves home ....
Somebody never had grandchildren.
Somebody said your mother knows you love her, so you don't need to tell her

Women take on the men at poker - and come up with aces
The talents required of a poker player are traditionally male traits: aggression, the ability to lie and hide your emotions. And, of course, staying up late smoking cigars.
But women are finally breaking into the world of poker and some are beating the men at their own game.
Britain's first live all-women poker championship is being held this summer with an estimated prize of £100,000 and a promise of "celebrity status in the poker world".
Poker has emerged from smoky back rooms and has exploded in popularity, first by being shown on television and now by the popularity of internet games.
Suddenly it is not only respectable but fashionable to play, attracting more women and young people. Women are still in a minority, but they have come a long way from the days when a female face around the table was rare.
A YouGov poll last year showed that women made up 30 to 40 per cent of online players. In casinos, the proportion of women is estimated to have increased from one to five per cent of players.

Britney Spears saga continues...
A couple days ago, I posted "Will Britney Spears sue over a broken high chair?".
This story gets even more interesting, and it comes from MSNBC...
"the antics of current white trash pinup girl Britney Spears and her no-means-of-visible-support husband Kevin Federline. The real-life Beverly Hillbillies recently got a visit from the Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services and a deputy sheriff. It seems a doctor reported their baby, Sean Preston, suffered a skull fracture six days before he was brought to the hospital. Two months earlier, Britney was caught driving with baby Preston on her lap."

It seems a doctor reported their baby, Sean Preston, suffered a skull fracture six days before he was brought to the hospital. Two months earlier, Britney was caught driving with baby Preston on her lap."
White Trash or Redneck?
I just got done reading Welcome to White Trash Nation on MSN and I started wondering what is the difference between white trash and redneck?
MSNBC mentions the following things associated with white trash...
My Name is Earl (happens to be 1 of my favorite tv shows)
Larry the Cable Guy and Blue Collar Comedy Tour (Jeff Foxworth the ultimate redneck)
Toby Keiths new album is "White Trash with Money
According to 1890's defnition white trash is "impoverished and uneducated"
So I got to wondering... is white trash just the new term for redneck? Or are rednecks from the country and white trash from the trailer parks? Or is white trash just poor rednecks? I searched around for some answers....
According to All Kinds of Redneck Stuff
It is possible for a redneck to also be white trash.
White Trash/Trailer Trash live in Trailers.
Rednecks do not. Rednecks live in run-down, partially constructed homes or log cabins
Rednecks are not lazy. White Trash/Welfare Trash/Trailer Trash is.
