I've heard that everything in the city itself is offensively expensive. So not as cheap as would be expected in what aspects? Or for what things?
What do you mean: "i splet at nice"? The place, Nice?
The cabs are going to be expensive though either way, if you're getting like 30-40 euro cab twice a day every day (which it would be for me), that can cost you like 800 euros for the festival.

Yes! Super excited for it. Btw it said that it's a 3-game mix, with FLO8 included. It doesn't say it clearly in the title of it, but the structure sheet has the equivalent levels for limit games throughout it.
I'm planning to go for the whole 6-7 weeks of it this time and play everything.

I had to have a stent put in prior to my Kidney Transplant. It was easy compared to all the other things I have been through.

Glad to hear you are still kicking.

I have been laughing at your jokes

Kidney transplant? That's heavy.

The stent was a relatively painless procedure.

Thanks. Glad to hear you're still kicking too.

Thanks. Different people evidently don't think the same things are funny.

Anyhow I posted another one today. (Laughs or Links forum).

Ha! I don't check into 2+2 as often as I used to, but I got an email about your posts in the Jokes thread. I thought they were funny, but then again, I've been told to go into the garage to check out a surprise.

Sorry to hear about your health problems, but glad to hear that you are on the mend.

Also glad to see that you still have the forum fooled into thinking you are a conservative cautious player.

Thanks. Here's another one for you:

A woman walks into the downtown welfare office trailed by 15 kids.

“Wow,” the social worker exclaims, “are they all yours?”

“Yep, they're all mine,” the flustered mother sighs, having heard that question a thousand times before.

The mother says, “sit down Terry.”

All the children rush to find seats.

“Well,” says the social worker, “then you must be here to sign up. I'll need all your children's names.”

''Well, to keep it simple, the boys are all named Terry and the girls are all named Terri.”

In disbelief, the case worker says, “Are you serious... they're all named Terry?”

“Yep - makes life easier. When it's time to get them out of bed and ready for school I yell, ‘Terry!’ and when it's time for dinner, I yell, ‘Terri!’ - and they all come running.

If I need to stop the kid who's running into the street, I yell, ‘Terry’ and all of them stop.

It's the smartest idea I ever had, naming them all Terry or Terri.”

The social worker thinks this over for a bit, then wrinkles her forehead and says tentatively, “But what if you only want one particular kid to come, and not the whole bunch?”

“Then I use a last name.”

It all depends on what's involved.

Take care.

I'm still planning on going to Monte Carlo, though haven't really found any good/cheap places to stay yet. Has anyone booked already, or found anything good?
Or even just is anyone else going there, and up for some drinks after the O8aments?

Mainly you evidently had a straight to the six and should have won three quarters. (There's also the minor discrepancy of 404 and 406 instead of 405 and 405).

But mainly if the pot were 810, you should have been awarded
810*3/4=607.5.
Ah.

Where did this take place?

I believe that's actually correct, if they do it that way. When there's an odd chip, the nearest left of the button gets the extra 1. Which I presume was him. The extra chip would normally go to the high hand, but not when there's a complete chop of each half.

+1. This is how bovada does it too. Essentially 2 pots of 405 each so left of the button gets the extra chip for each pot.

One day when I drove the City bus this AAwoman got on with 4 kids. I asked here what their names were and she replied "Eeny, Meeny, Miney and Dave" I looked at her funny and she said she didn't want no Mo.

A man and a woman were having a quiet, romantic dinner in a fine restaurant. They were gazing lovingly at each other and holding hands. The waitress, taking another order at a table a few steps away, suddenly noticed the man slowly sliding down his chair and under the table, but the woman acted unconcerned. The waitress watched as the man slid all the way down his chair and out of sight under the table. Still, the woman appeared calm and unruffled, apparently unaware her dining companion had disappeared. The waitress, thinking this was a bit risqué behaviour that might offend other diners, went over to the table and tactfully, began by saying to the woman, "Pardon me, ma'am , but I think your husband just slid under the table." The woman calmly looked up at her and said,

"No, he didn't. He just walked in the door."

Lol, Buzz, I just accidentally clicked on your profile while trying to open this thread (on tablet), and saw that you have ballet as one of your interests. Really? Presumably not to perform, but to watch?

Yes... to watch... not perform. I know it's strange but I enjoy watching ballet.

Ballet is a trip. If you like athletic endeavors you should watch at least two live dance performances. One where you sit in the back and see the whole spectacle, and one where you sit up front and watch the dancers work.

Good one! Thanks for the laugh. I'll move your original to the Laughs or Links Forum, where it probably belongs, but I'll leave a copy above in quotes for people here to enjoy.

Oops. I guess I won't move it after all.
