My wife got a raise at work.  Should bring in an extra $250-300 month.  

She just hired a cleaning lady - $180 every other Thursday.

Post yours.

 
Those headphones are highly overrated...not completely bad...just not worth that cash.  Better products out there.

Tell her you expect more sexy time now. No excuses about being tired or needing to clean.

 
I got three outed in three tournaments this weekend right before the bubble.  
I got a nickname from my worst poker bad beat. Couldnt walk into a northern Nevada cardrroom for years without someone callin' out "WowEE!"

My regular game when i played for a living in the 80s was a 1-4 PL at Karl's Silver Club in Sparks, NV. Good game - Freddy Deeb, Ray Zee cut their teeth there, it was the weekend game of choice, for some reason, for jewelers from all over Cali.

Anyway, one weekend we had a rich kid in the game who was a special commodity - a cokehead who got soooo high he was noddy like a drunk. For a while, i thought he was snorting a speedball concoction, but he offered to hit me up once during his party weekend & it was str8up soda. I'd done well the night before when he was just regular high (Tom McEvoy had sat in that night and that was the kid's first poker celeb - there werent many in those days so he was pumped) and the second night i'd run my usual $300 buy-in to over two grand - a month-maker for a grinder like me.

By Saturday, this loadee had gotten to the point that the dealers had to prompt him every hand, which the players wanted cuz he was such a guppy. He'd come to when they yelled or poked, get his face right down to table level to look at his hand, then either pass right out again or jump back all startled-like, yell "WowEE!" and pot-raise blinds & calls. This is just perfect for PL, cuz you get to know fast who's serious in a hand and kinda take turns on the fish. I had positioned myself just in front of him so i got to know who all was acting before making my play.

Drew a pair of tens, put in first raise, loadee says "WowEE" and pots. One other caller, i just call. Flop comes 10-7-7. Gold. Check call Wowzer, other guy drops. Was able to get all-in by the turn, wave hello to sevens in the hole for loadee and goodbye to my stack. Kid musta said "WowEE!" 47 times, louder & longer each time like it was an Isley song or sumn, as he stacked-knockover-stacked-knockover-piled his chips. My ears were burning and i dont rebuy when my ears are burning so i went home. Kid cashed out soonafter, which didnt make sense cuz it didnt get him anywhere near even, but everybody was pissed at me from it and taunted me for a while by saying, "WowEEEE!!" over&over every time i was in a hand. Dont know why it caught on but even waitresses were calling me "wowee" for a couple years after.

on my last trip a few weeks ago, I'm playing in a om8 tourney at the Venetian.  I get rivered four times in the last orbit with a four hitting giving the winner a low and straight each time. it got to the point where we all were laughing about it.  Have 4k left in the bb, and have qq34.   Flop is q77.   We get all in and he turns over 77 10 k.    turn is an 8 giving me a low draw until the river 3.   lol.

Friday night in wsop plo8.  saw this.  Guy pots with aa23.   bb calls with jj1010.  Flop is j 10 4.    aa  guy  is screaming at the top of his lungs for an ace.  turn in k.  river is a.   so gross.   it was level 9 and either one would have wound up in first at that moment.
