I am feeling left out because I just don't have enough time to play games, but I still check POG first thing every day. I need some place I can post ramblings, trip reports and pictures without the pressure of creating a new thread every time I get the urge. So consider this the companion to the poker happenings thread that has been around forever. I will start by bitching. I am a lazy bastard, but I am good at creating the illusion that I am working hard, and like most of us here I have always been smarter than most of my coworkers. That meant I could get more work done in less time and thus appear more productive. In April I took a new job with a great company and took on significantly more responibility. It turns out I am no longer smarter than everyone else. I am actually dumber. I also have to work which is a bit of an alien experience. The average person in my position is putting in sixty hours a week which doesn't fit my 10-4 lifestyle. I am still playing poker, but I pay absolutely no attention to my opponents. I finally stopped trying to use Pokertracker because I never looked at the stats or paid any attention to my own. Not surprisingly my balance - aside from rakeback - is exactly the same as it was at the beginning of the year. I am the king of treading water.

Account older than thread. #winning

I think about this sometimes like I've been a 2+2er for longer of my life than I haven't been one now. I call it the "LeBron stat" how he has been a professional NBA player for longer than he has not(counting infancy) which is just wild

So, um, I am 40 years old despite bitching about my favorite bridge site introducing a subscription fee in the bridge thread.

like Sammy Hagar sang "I can't be 55" but I am 55! we all used to be so young. now we're so old, and the forum is so old our last giant mishmash is behind us. i'll never accidentally mess up one of gabe's games again. but given my terrible math, I should show my work. I was born in April 1971. I'm pretty sure that makes me 55
