I tried it again for a little bit today. Still so undecided. I think I will give it a week.

And then there's the well-dressed American golfers who have a love/hate relationship with golf:

I've texted some with Kurt. Just enough to establish that he is alive and healthy. That was back when AnAnonymousCoward was trying to get together with him in Cali. We shouldn't be expecting to see much of him for a while.

Oh now I see what he meant. The comma made it more understanding for this non-native english speaker.

That doesn't make it any clearer. What is it that they don't care about?

However, since I don't have half dress sense and I don't care about golf it probably doesn't matter.

Not yet, but soon.

I take Tues/Wed off b/c that's when the games are teh worst. I'm a big believer that every1 would benefit from taking days off from poker, just like any other job, yet so many play every day. I usually spend 2-4 hours one of those days doing sweats/reviews/etc. but other than that no poker. Lately I've had to play a bit on my days off b/c I've decided to shoot for a milestone. FML.

Maybe I should play on Tuesdays more often. +6 buyins in 1200 hands.
10-05-2010 , 01:15 PM
That makes sense. I haven't scheduled any days for being off days, but your reasoning sounds sensible. Could be good to have a couple of set days each week to get refreshed than to continue to grind down until I'm simply too tired to play. You give me food for thought. Mmmmmmm...food.
10-05-2010 , 01:16 PM
Tuesdays have always been good to me. Mondays and Wensdays have always been bad. Thursday-Sunday are money!

Okay, today I saw a recording of something utterly amazing.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MDrqBYkco-Y is a live recording from old-school computer demo competition. It sounds pretty awful, but that's beside the point. He's demonstrating sound editing on an ancient computer that should not be able to even play the tune in question. The CPU has about 4000 (four thousand) transistors.

Of course he's cheating. The tricks are explained, in great detail, on his technical white-paper: http://www.livet.se/mahoney/c64-file..._Tufvesson.pdf - and even the explanations will probably go way over most peoples' heads. I at least caught a few.

It's like magic. The audience knows they're being fooled big time but even then can't figure out how. Only in this case learning the secrets of the trick does not diminish the value of the performance.
