| Presentation | -many early Oriental playing cards were actually sticks that were later widened and shortened and designed with images. -playing cards were most likely invented an China in 1120 A.D. -playind cards were introduced into Europe in the 1300's. -due to French influence, Spades represents nobility, Diamonds represents merchants, Clubs represents the peasants and Hearts represents the clergy. -Edmond Hoyle lived to be 97 years old but he still died 150 years before poker was invented or played in America. -Hoyle's book, A Short Treatise on the Game of Whist, was about Bridge, not poker. -in the 1800's, 2,000 to 2,500 riverboat gamblers played poker on America's waterways. A strait beat a flush at the time. -Historians generally agree that Wild Bill Hickock was a lousy poker player. -Dead Man's Hand, is two pair, Aces and 8's, the hand Wild Bill Hickock was holding when he was shot. Contrary to popular belief, the exact suits or colors he was holding when he was shot in the back is just not known today. -Jack McCall killed Wild Bill Hickock because he thought he had been cheated out of a twenty-five cent pot. That's equal to about $30 today. -A fifth suit of cards, called Eagle, was introduced in 1937 but never caught on. -At least 65,000,000 American's regularly play poker. -Las Vegas casinos are not legally obligated to pay off their gambling debts. --taken from one of Ken Warren's many informative books. remember- IT'S ONE LONG POKER GAME. "We must question the story logic of having an all-knowing all-powerful God, who creates faulty Humans, and then blames them for his own mistakes" ~ Gene Roddenberry Some words of wisdom (or just a laugh) : If everything seems to be going well, you have obviously overlooked something. Ambition is a poor excuse for not having enough sense to be lazy. Shin: a device for finding furniture in the dark. I intend to live forever - so far, so good. Who is General Failure and why is he reading my hard disk? What happens if you get scared half to death twice? If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you. To steal ideas from one person is plagiarism; to steal from many is research. A clear conscience is usually the sign of a bad memory. Arguing on the internet is like running in the Special Olympics, even if you win, you're still retarded. ........... ............... WORDS TO THE WISE.... ................... ....... So what if women can fake orgasms, Men can fake a whole relationship. There are two theories to arguing with women. Neither one works. Everyone seems normal until you get to know them. Always remember you're unique. Just like everyone else. If you think nobody cares if you're alive, try missing a couple of car payments. Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them you're a mile away and you have their shoes. If at first you don't succeed, skydiving is not for you. Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day. Teach him how to fish, and he will sit in a boat and drink beer all day. If you lend someone $20 and never see that person again, it was probably worth it. If you tell the truth, you don't have to remember anything. Some days you are the bug; some days you are the windshield. Good judgment comes from bad experience, and a lot of that comes from bad judgment. The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket. A closed mouth gathers no foot. Generally speaking, you aren't learning much when your lips are moving. Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it. Never miss a good chance to shut up. We are born naked, wet and hungry, and get slapped on our butt; then things get worse. No matter what happens, somebody will find a way to take it too seriously. Be kinder than necessary and people will become suspicious of you. Remember that the more you know that the less you fear. Unless you worry about everything than the less you know the less you will fear. Don't expect money to bring you happiness. However money can be given to a hooker who will provide you happiness. Never resist a generous impulse especially if you are on the receiving end of it. Remember that what's right isn't always popular and what's popular isn't always right but if you own the rights to something that's popular you can make a lot of money. Don't burn your bridges unless you have a boat. Never swap your integrity for money, power or fame unless you think it is worth more. Be tactful, never alienate anyone on purpose. Try to make it look like an accident. Don't carry a grudge. Put it somewhere that it's easy to get at. Except a breath mint if someone offers you one. Take the hint. A smile improves your face value but a bag over your head is priceless. ...........THINGS NOT TO SAY TO A COP!!!........... -OINK OINK -No, YOU assume the position! -Arent you the guy from the Village People? -Didnt I see you get your ass kicked on COPS? -Do you have any idea how much of a hurry I'm in? -Hope you realise youre about to ruin a perfect record. -Sorry officer, I didnt realise me radar wasnt plugged in. -I thought you had to be in relatively good shape to be a cop? -What do you mean have I been drinking? Youre the trained specialist! -I cant reach my license unless u hold my beer. -Gee officer, your eyes look glazed, have you been eating donuts? -Hey, can you give me another one of them full body cavity searches? -Whoops, thats the fake one...here ya go, this is the real one. -Come on, right the stupid ticket, the bars close in 20 mins. -Youre lucky this car needs a tune-up or you'd have never caught me! -If you tried the stuff I just had...you wouldnt be so damn uptight. -What exactly is legally drunk? -So, whats a good bribe go for around here? -Well, when I reached down to pick up my crack pipe, my gun fell off my lap and got lodged in the gas pedal, forcing me to speed out of control.  ....means i'm taking you out. |
