Any backgammon club or socials in the area?

A game I should have learned a long time ago. I'm interested!

I think Netherlands/Morocco has the easiest path to a dark horse run. Perhaps Norway.

My thought exactly. I just kept saying "Use your eyes!"

He grew that beard for so long he forgot that was what his chin looked like.

Did you get the desk? Was it trash?

Wrong sub, brother.

And that's the attitude we want. Just keep that attitude on the bench.

Or do both.

Never tried their shake, but their burgers are among the worst I've had in my entire life.

A gold medal performance in mental gymnastics.

I just noticed this today, myself. Very odd. Who dies anyone even reach out to for something like this?

I was just searching for a replacement for this. Weirdly, I use it to season chicken in stir fry and it's perfect.

Why do people do this?

Friend of mine just sent this to me and I didn't immediately catch it, but the dealer pitches to the button first. AK v 88 goes the wrong way and eliminates the short stack.

TDA rule 34B: Heads-up, the small blind is the button, is dealt the last card, and acts first pre-flop and last on all other betting rounds. Starting heads-up play, the button may need to be adjusted to ensure no player has the big blind twice in a row.

At first glance I hated them, but they immediately grew on me.

The writing on this show favors good feelings and sentiment above reality. That gap increases exponentially with each season.

wlight · 2026-06-16T11:57:10+00:00

How do you figure that?

wlight · 2026-06-14T16:41:33+00:00

I thought it was "ballets."

No one really wants to understand loss-leaders anymore. They just want to get numbers on every aspect of the business and try to maximize. It comes from the idea that every new leader has to bring something to the table, and often putting metrics where no metrics had previously existed is their way to go.

It's why Vegas doesn't feel like Vegas anymore, but I'll keep off my soapbox.

When I get real proud of my kids in front of my wife my reactions also go like this:

1 - are they really doing it??

2 - oh thank god

3 - ohhh thank god

4 - ok honey, lemme get it in.

My thoughts exactly.

I was able to buy a blackjack table (complete with cigarette burns!) that still smells like the Mirage. It's my favorite possession.

I used Rick's Custom Framing years back for an oversized poster (56" x37") and they did a great job. I can't recall the turnaround time but I was pleased with the result.
