*** OFFICIAL DECEMBRO TO REMEMBRETTE LC THREAD *** - Page 81

Just had an open face chinese christmas 3h session where I win all the monies at 1/2/3 pt then we do one last hand of 10 pt and I'm dealer so I have 2hands, i foul one and the guy losing all night makes quads to win 32 points off me and I lose another 17 points to the other hand. HOHOHO BASTARDS

And justice for all.

The 1st book is a little tough to follow, cause there are so many characters/storylines to follow, and you have to get used to Erickson's writing style.

But things start to come together in the 2nd and 3rd books, which IMO are the best in the series.

If you are only lukewarm on the first book, I would say keep going. But if you are not hooked by halfway through the 2nd book I would say abort.

Also, i would go online and find some maps of the world. knowing the geography a little better made things a lot better imo.

...99% sure I saw someone named dassem_ultor on reddit and this same discussion popped up there when someone saw his name. The internet is trolling me.

Merry Christmas y'all

argh talking to my dad is so tilting sometimes. His father in-law died so they got his Acura with like 40k miles on it for $5,000. This, of course means, that there are cars like this all over AutoTrader. I finally got him to take the bait and asked him to send me a link to a few deals like this on Autotrader CUZ I JUST NO GOOD WITH THE COMPUTERS PA.

Game of thrones companion cookbook was a surprise #2 present to desperately needed computer chair. Contains a lot of unusual recipes for soups, stews, large cuts of meat, random stuff I've never heard of. Also got a throw blanket for my new couch and a few other new apartment things.

Considering hosting a mulled wine pregame next weekend...

I got a giftcard to a mall. I hate malls. Got a raincheck on getting some squat shoes though, apparently the romaleos aren't available any more?

Also, weightlifting does NOT increase bowling skills.
