[Mostly O/T] Waiting For Cash For Duffers

I go by the local Chrysler/Dodge/Jeep dealer pretty often. It's been a depressing sight all year, with hardly any turnover. I think they even had some 2008 models languishing on the lot. I'd guess they had fifty or sixty assorted new vehicles.

I went by today and they had almost no inventory at all! They must have sold at least three dozen vehicles this week, which is a lot for a no-horse town. I've never seen their lot so empty. Incredible.

I guess there really was pent-up demand for new cars, at least if you were willing to throw seven to nine grand on the hood.

And just to make this a poker post, in my head I've cleared 20% of my FTP bonus. One good session (well except for the stacking by a straight flush > my ace high flush, that was unnecessary), one *** session where nothing hit, nothing filled, every time I got it in good I got sucked out on. In other words, standard. I have a pretty good imagination.

I've also determined that I can handle six tables of play chip PLO but eight is a bit much. My 'puter and net connection just aren't up to it.

Now if only I can stop playing so much junk out of position...
