Hold ‘em is the 800 pound gorilla of poker right now but home games often involve multiple variants of poker. A newbie going against experienced players will lose, there’s no getting around it. I am great

I missed the story about Alligator Alcatraz flooding - what happened there? Just a garden variety Florida summer rainfall. But hurricane season is just starting. The cynic in me thinks a disaster there

Most of the media outlets are playing good dog and regurgitating Alligator Alcatraz and Alligator Auschwitz is getting some traction on social media (but we really aren’t there yet) but I suppose

A few years ago I went to Canterbury Park and watched dachshund races. Most of them just wanted to play but a few ran to the finish line as fast as their little legs could manage. There was also a camel

I have not yet read the book, but in the movie version of No Country for Old Men why does Carson Wells go to his hotel room with Anton Chigurh? Why not fight on the stairs when he had the high ground and

Zelenskyy is certainly a hero/legend now but 2,000 years is a long time. How many political or military figures from a couple of millennia ago are now even remembered, let alone still thought of as heroes?

From what I’ve seen, there was almost no violence at the vast majority of the No Kings protests. And I’d not be surprised if agents provocateur were responsible for the tiny minority of incidents that

Thanks. I’d love to someday write long-format fiction but for one reason or another haven’t done so. And of what I have done, almost all are noirish or crime-related, with occasional science fiction. The
