This and That

I have not been able to play much poker lately which is probably a good thing. Variance had reared its ugly head and knocked me back a few buy ins over the past week. I was beaten by donkeys every way imaginable. I lost to a straight flush when I had two pair. I lost when my full house (pocket nines) was second to another full house (pocket Jacks) on a 3,5,J,9,5 board. I lost numerous hands to flush draws that made it home against my TP/TK, my sets, my two pair hands and my straights. I am taking a break from poker to let things cool down and will get back into it soon as I know those flush draws won't always hit and I will start stacking some folks again.

I am going to make a prediction that Barack Obama will not get elected president this year. Just my gut feeling on things. I'm not going to Las Vegas to put any money on it but I just think he is too liberal and carries quite a bit of baggage with him.

The older I get the more socialist I get. I wouldn't mind seeing some kind of National Health care because if I lose my job I lose my health care and that is scary.

The older I get the more of an isolationist I am becoming. Close the borders and the airports and y'all don't bother coming into our country and we won't bother going to yours. We'll just sit home and buy American goods, grow American food and develop our own petroleum products. I know that will never happen but I sure get tired of other countries complaining about us all the time.

If Tiger Woods wins the U.S. Open after having knee surgery and taking an entire month off from competitive golf then all the other golfers in the U.S. should just kiss it good-by and start playing for second place. In my mind that would the the ultimate in dominance of a sport.

Tiger Woods has been wowing us for over 10 years now. Where are the other African American golfers that he was suppose to inspire and open up doors for? The next generation of golfer should be in their early 20's and we should be seeing some sign of more minorities teeing it up on the PGA Tour and Nationwide Tour but so far things are pretty sparse. Why is that? Are we several years away still?
