Roughly 3 hours until tip off time, tip off of my first glass of liquor in 10 weeks at tonights pre gathering at my house. I have given much thought about what that drink will be, and have decided it will be James Bond style, an Iceberg Vodka/Southern Comfort Martini while I play some poker. From there it will be Comfort and A&W, followed by some Bacardi and cola at the OH.
A summary of events will be posted in the next couple of days.

Don't Get Eliminated!
Well it’s been exactly a month since my last post.
No particular reason for that, just lots of other activities keeping me busy, including work, and the internet seemed to be pretty slack during the time.
Important fact of the day;
My streak of sobriety will exceed 2 months this weekend; hopefully it will end in another week during Kelly's birthday celebrations. For those first time readers, I'm not an alcoholic, I've had lack of time for drinking since the massive B. Savoy wedding night and have been holding off until the time is right for a massive "Welcome Back to Drinking" event. Last week I hit a phase were I had the taste of rum and coke in my mouth for about an hour. I can't wait to have that and some Southern Comfort. I hope to try Iceberg Vodka for the first time soon as well. Thanks to Craig Pinhey over at Frogs Pad my interest has been sparked in it. I guess Iceberg rated 3rd or 4th in the world of Vodka, the big names like Absolut finished pretty low on the list and Smirnoff actually received a not ratable rank. I stumbled across Pinhey's work while at my work; he has articles syndicated on aliant.net, all about the local liquor scene. I hope one day he does a review of the Blackhorse.
I've been spending some time lately playing poker. Speaking of cards, I stumbled across a site that features the rules/instructions to what seems to be every card game and variation of them ever created, check it out here.
