Aces full of nines

I’m playing poker tonight.
I can’t wait. Man, I love to play poker. Gimmie a game of pot-limit hold em, a hundred bucks, and I couldn’t be happier. I’m about two-thirds finished with Jim McManus’ Positively Fifth Street right now, and I’m loving it.
Anne and I watched the DVD of Jackass last night . . . holy shit. Some of it was really stupid, like watching a bunch of stupid stoners do stupid stoner things . . . but parts of it — Knoxville in old man makeup shoplifting, Wee Man getting chased by Preston all over Tokyo, making Bam’s mom say “fuck” — was insanely funny. And Rip Taylor! Damn.
