It was poker night for me and the boys in the Bogdanski Hut. The whole home team (and a cousin) worked hard to make it the perfect evening, and it was. I even had a lucky rock with me -- so designated by the kids, who rubbed it a few times for extra good luck. I was down when they slipped it to me, but I promptly rallied and wound up breaking even for the night (down 50 cents) after an up-and-down game.
I'm lucky, and poker is the least of it.
And the playlist for the heart of the evening turned out better than I anticipated (you can never tell with these things):
A swell night, but something tells me I won't be checking out the first game in World Cup, just over four hours from now.

That ought to be the Portland Anthem!!!
On a separate topic: did you notice that Sam's Team is silent on the many questions that have been posted regarding the Tram's operating budget.
How about this for a Portland City Motto:
"With a good name, one may sin easily"
Posted by: Mister T at June 10, 2006 06:46 AMDo you play nickel, dime, quarter games? Ah, how I love the comradarie of a decent evening of the game.
The best suggestion I've heard for a city motto is the one suggested years back, a perversion of the motto on the Skidmore Fountain:
"Rich citizens are the good of a city."
