First one: Haha!
Second one I will second. I need to stop loving my laptop sometimes more then my family.

As for my own goals:
Continue to read and learn backgammon and keep playing 4-5 games with analysis every day.
Creep my microroll up so that I can play 15 dollar HU SNGs on Stars. The 7 dollar guys suck but the 15 dollar guys are not so bad.

Re: August Goals

You know what - I'm in the mood for some goal setting, I view these threads every month but I'm going to join the fun:

[] 100kg Bench Press* - 1 Rep Max
[] Get my online bankroll up to 250 big bets for my current limit
[] Add 10 new songs to my music playlist
[] Be in bed with lights out by 2am at least 15 times through rest of month
[] Make £100 in "side income" (don't ask!)
[] *BONUS* Win a PokerStars Milestone Hand

*For you Americans thats 220lbs, but I think because you have 45lbs plates it will mean it ends up being 225lbs.

Perhaps my 1 rep max would sound a hell of a lot better if it was just a mere 27,593 yen?

And Manny - a very informative 1k post, thank you

Re: August Goals

I would personally choose a currency losing ground, I mean 4 years ago I couldve lifted 25% more yen. Perhaps choose an African currency, you'll see better results.

Re: August Goals

Four years ago your 1 rep max weight in Zimbabwean dollars would have just about bought you a beer.
