My girls went to the Crumpets Tea Room today with the female relatives. I thought the picture was cute. My two oldest, Rebecca and Carolyn. Make fun of me all you want, but I believe the tradition of Tea is a wonderful way to spend the time with loved ones. I wish they had invited a couple of the men in the family. While they did that I was able to place 3'rd in a $20 multi on Stars.

Had a great time last night and today. Spent Christmas Eve with my lovely girls. Although today they were visiting the the other half of the family. It was a bit melancholy.my first Christmas day without them. I got my share of kids though. I watched my niece and nephews open their gifts and play with toys all day. Beat my dad in Scrabble. Then Roast Beef and Yorkshire Pudding.

I make the same one every year, so this year I'll be different and spend a week or so thinking of a better one. I will admit right now that I have to start exercising instead of sitting in front of a computer or poker table all day. So that won't be my resolution, I'll just do it. For those of you that want to lose weight, I found a site a couple years ago that is an absolute MUST if you are going to track your diet.

Spent the day baking cookies for the holidays. I was smart this year, I trippled each recipe and made the dough of each yesterday. Put them in plastic bags in the fridge over night, and then today I just made a production line in front of the oven. I ended up with about 3 dozen of each. Here are the recipes if you are interested. The pistachio are my favorite: Peanut Butter Cookies Red & Green Pistachio Cookies Chocolate Striped Shortbread Cookies Sparkling Raisin Molases Cookies.

PokerStars has led the pack again with a great addition to it's multi-table tourneys, the Deep Stack structure. If you click on the picture to the right, you can see the details. This particular one, which I am still in, is an Omaha 8 or Better limit tourney. We started with T$5,000 and the blinds were 20/40. They play more like the larger live tourneys.

Ok, so Negroponte is providing PC's and internet access for $100 a piece to developing countries. What are we doing for our own that are still in developing areas of the US? Rural communities? Low income? In typical American fashion, people have banded together to take matters into their own hands. West Virgina Broadband is a non profit that connects rural communities to high speed wireless connections.
