Points to mull over

Here's some random thoughts that are jumbling around:

• I got a new cell phone (Sony Erickson Walkman phone) that has all these bells and whistles, but the battery runs out ultra-quick. What's the point of all the doohickies, when you can't save enough juice to actually call someone?
• Poker note of the day: played a cash game with 11 other people at the hop, won $30. The neat thing is that I had lost $60 at the start, so that means I chipped back and had a swing of $90. That's comforting to me for some reason. That and I got PAID after flopping quad-7's.
• eBay thought of the day: you can't make money selling collectible cards if you buy boxes of unopened cards. The odds are stacked against you. However, buying cards and reselling them at a slightly greater price has been profitable...though actually a bit too slim for the amount of work involved. Still, not a bad little hobby.
• Job: what will chuck do for the next year: standardchuck maxim #2: Don't quit a job without finding another one to replace it. This swinging without a net is a bit disturbing.
• ELV is a great girlfriend. Enough said.
• I have too many gadgets, especially in comparison to my money status. Silly expenditures.

Have a good day...see you in Chicago.
