When in Rome… I live in LA. I reside in LA. Whenever I’m asked ‘where you from?’, I cannot bring myself to say LA, nor Atlanta for that matter. My answer is “I’m from NY, but I live in LA via Atlanta. That pretty much sums it up.
Although I’m not ‘from’ LA, but certainly I’m [...]

Ok, two weeks ago in Vegas I played a ridiculous amount of poker in a short period of time…this time, it was a little more tame as Mindy joined me in Sin City. We took in two shows…Le Reve at the Wynn and Phantom of the Opera at The Venetian. Both were excellent and entertaining. [...]

I’ll post on my LV trip soon, but I’ve got to post regarding this amazing five-game series between the Yanks and SOX. My new idea for a T-shirt — “2004 is the new 1918″. Seems the Yanks have the SOX’ number. Down 5-3 Sunday, then Bombers tie it up versus Papelbon and the Yanks go [...]

Ok so I live only 3.5 hours from Sin City. But why drive when you can fly? Some will argue it’s the same time when you count in waiting at the airports, going through security. That’s not true when you consider potty breaks, stopping for gas, and traffic which I believe the pilots usually try [...]

Had to pick up my sisters-in-law at the airport yesterday (Monday) for a week long visit. Mindy was working and so since I have the ability to get off work early, working east coast hours, I volunteered to pick them up by 7:12pm. I didn’t want to get caught in the LA 405 traffic or [...]

What a trip! I meant to post sooner but I was thoroughly exhausted yesterday after a whirlwind 71-hour trip to Vegas. From Thursday AM through Sunday AM – I was in Vegas for a grand total of 71 hours, played poker for 46.5 hours, slept for 11 hours…. The swings were down as much as [...]

The WSOP Main event has kicked off and even though it will have been six days since the kickoff last Friday, I arrive Thursday on an ‘off day’ and will get to view the main event continue to day three which continues on Friday. Crazy – over 8,500 dreamers.
I arrive Thursday morning in time to [...]
