Duke attempts the Impossible

I read today that a woman set fire to her man"s ***** cos she was a little miffed at his supposed infedelity. "I only wanted to have him to myself" what"s she going to do with a burnt one FFS, keep it in the fridge for special occasions. Anyway, tragically he jumped up and knocked over the fluid she was using and set fire to himself completely and later died in hospital.

It"s a strange world we live in

Just ask Laxie -- Ireland is a beautiful and wild country -- here are a couple of my bad photos







You might guess that I am homesick

OK tonight is the $5 rebuy -- I have banished the wee man to the couch and we shall see what we can do in this -- you might think we will collude but I can assure you he is soooooo competitive the little fecker would lie just to get my chips.

I don"t know about you but I don"t subcribe to the "let your children win" brigade either. All during his life his Mother used to nag me (hmm trend there) about letting him win and I never did. I always tried my best at every combatative game we had and you know what.

Chess -- no sweat to beat him until he was 12 since then he spanks me. When he won for the first time the pure joy in his face was worth the hassle from his mother.

XBOX/PS games --- don"t go there he has battered me at those for years

Darts -- we have a board and he is getting good -- its even at the mo

Poker -- sigh just sigh

I think we sometimes remove the competitive edge from our Children when we let them win -- might be wrong

However -- SUMO Wrestling --- he has a long way to go ---- lol

Sounds right to me.

Same with me. Beat my dad for the first time when I was 12 - great feeling, and all the better for knowing it wasn"t a "gimme"

Last night was a bit of fun, next Saturday will be serious. Who am I kidding, prepare yourselves for some pure unadulterated naked aggression, you have been warned. Son of Duke seems to be a chip off the old block when it comes to shipping in his chips on marginal hands. Must have a word. It's the first game of the new Chezger year tonight and my New Year resolution is to take this league more seriously. However I enjoy the nights immensely and will probably play as bad as I did in 2008, we'll see.
