Finally, a Ted Williams style home run. I guess I mentioned before, When I was 4 or 5 at Fenway, I got to see him hit one out of the park. 1952-1953. Good ol boring but somewhat reliable 99.54 JOB. Funny, I was ahead a few hundred playing my usual clone, and last minute before turning in early this morning after an all nighter, I decided to risk one hundred and switch to dollars. OTABILL…..I owe you one. Thanks gang. As you can see, I had 16 bucks left of the hundred after that bet! 😬 I’m still there after a great pounding hot shower and a few hours sleep. Heading for the door, coffee in hand.

Never in one of them 12 years have I been above 99% playing 9/6 JOB. Many of them years I have been over royaled by many. It's not royals its the other hands one needs for the 99.5% to work, they just don't come in.

It's certainly not boring when you hit one like that!

Congrats olds. And I think they celebrate Christmas at the animal shelter just like they do at the olds household.

Wildman and I are still Marathoners. All my well wishers and yes even jokesters give me at least hope here and there. Ted be at the shelter shortly after they open. Beside some green, packing the car with needed blankets and doggie and kitty toys we have around the house. I can’t go in the back though. I will walk out with arms full of animals.

Congratulations. The all nighter paid off incredibly well. Those pro rata machines are a blessing denied to AC players and, from what I understand, most of the country. I am itching to return this weekend. Cyber Monday deals were great. But I'd like to restore my account.
