1st up of course is poker. Entered in a 20 person tournament last weekend and came in 3rd. KInda pleased on how my live play has been improving. Now add beer and we just have trouble. Gotta get away from drinking while playing.
Now the NFL Draft. My Pittsburgh Steelers pissed ALOT of Bears fans off my selecting
RASHARD MENDENHALL Of Illinois
PRO: Drafted by the Steelers in the first round (23rd overall) of the 2008 NFL Draft out of Illinois…became the first running back taken by Pittsburgh in the first round of the NFL Draft since the team selected Tim Worley in 1989 (7th overall)

What I read in the Chicago paper was that the Bears were courting this cat and thought they had a winner. He He.
Iron Man comes out next weekend. Now I am a recovering Comic Book Geek. No joke I would at my prime drop about 100-150 a WEEK on comics. That dosent count the back issues I would buy. I purged and sold my whole collection and havent bought a book sence then but still love the characters.
Iron Man was always a cool character because he was flawed. He was a playboy and a drunk but then still had to suit up and save the world.
The Hulk is being remade this summer too. Looks good from what I have seen.
Now the movie that I am looking forward to is Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skulls. This looks fun and prolly the last Indy movie we will see.
Other then this work sucks, The horror convention FlashBack Weekend is'nt until July, and trying to play as much poker as possible.
So whats up with you?
