Yeah the Iain/Liz/Doke triangle has more than a touch of werewolf about it. We need to figure out who's telling the truth

Aaaand that's my shot at 50/1 over. Back down to rebuild and take another shot later:
Full Tilt No-Limit Hold'em, $1.00 BB (6 handed) - Full-Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com
Button ($111)
SB ($31.50)
BB ($128.85)
Hero (UTG) ($132)
MP ($126.10)
CO ($100)
Preflop: Hero is UTG with Q, Q
Hero bets $3.50, MP calls $3.50, CO calls $3.50, 3 folds
Flop: ($12) 6, 9, 8 (3 players)
Hero bets $10, MP raises to $30, 1 fold, Hero raises to $75, MP raises to $122.60 (All-In), Hero calls $47.60
Turn: ($257.20) Q (2 players, 1 all-in)
River: ($257.20) 4 (2 players, 1 all-in)
Total pot: $257.20 | Rake: $3
Results:
Hero had Q, Q (three of a kind, Queens).
MP had 5, A (flush, Ace high).
Outcome: MP won $254.20"I can’t find anyone who agrees with what I write or think these days, so I guess I must be getting closer to the truth." - Hunter S. Thompson

Not to be morbid but here's where my brain is at at the moment.
My 30 year old female cousin who is quite a healthy individual had a heart attack two weeks ago. My uncle aged 35 and in good health dropped dead last year and a former work colleague of mine aged 33 died last week having fought cancer for 4 years.....makes me wonder about how I spend my time.
Just hearing about Brian Vickers on the radio. Very very sad case. My thoughts are with the kids.Last edited by V for Vendetta; 10-06-10, 17:28.‘IF YOU had not committed great sins, God would not have sent a punishment like me upon you.” Genghis Khan

In other news Cowen got a semi roasting from Matt Cooper just there. Unfirended on facebook after that I'd say matt.

Originally posted by Flushdraw View Postit doesn't work by aggregate earnings. I requested to go part time less than 12 months so as far as they're concerned, that's how my package is based. If they requested me to go part time it would be different. I checked all avenues and it seems they are right.
They defo overpaid me, because my weekly pay they based the whole package on included an extra 15% which is what my shift allowance was previously
Tbh given that most of these things are calculated by the HR bods they can often be wrong and nobody goes looking for mistakes once the money is paid out...
As for the part-time thing and F**king you over I can see their point somewhat. The good news is you'd have probably left anyway so at least you get something. Sounds like they were trying to increase the "natural attrition" over the last while anyway so you are as well off out of there.
Hopefully you get something good near your new home soon.

FWIW as you say life if for living though and my philosophy since college has been to strive to be as financial independent as possible (from both employer or the government for that matter) so that once a job is no longer fulfilling or you just feel like doing something else, you feel no financial pressure if you decide take a few months out to reassess...being a wage slave, in thrall to your mortgage and paying tax to bail out the idiots who squandered the boom, is my idea of a life wasted.
Obviously it's easy for a man without a mortgage or wife or kids to say these things!

You know another thing that gets me about queues at checkouts. Lets say theres 10 tills on the same ledge TK Maxx style lets say but only 3 are manned. Checkouts 1,2,3 up the top end are the ones manned and 7-10 are unmanned but the queue starts at till 10 and everyone stands compliant at till 10 leaving a big chasm between 3 and 10 like some diligent worker could come along at any moment and fill one of the vacant checkouts. Whats that about because its not going to happen EVER. Are people afraid if they shuffle up behind checkout 3 they will be gazumped by a checkout suddenly opening behind them in the meantime.Theres a 1% chance of that happening ffs.

didn't read it
don't know what its about
& couldn't give a flying fcuk either way
So I doubt it will follow you to the grave or cause wicked whispers next time your at the 10 items or less checkout

Anyhu where was I:
Ahh yes; i remember my first visit to the Garden State.
As we pulled into the driveway of the family I would be staying with
I turned to my host and said:
"Garden state? state of yer garden more like, aaahhh hey sham, ya need to be plantin some nice purples flowers overs there, red wans in behind and some yellow yokes down the front to create a border.
And another thing, ya should plant some onions and tomatoes up there in the corner, save ya a fortune in the long run"
I was quite uncouth in my wild and reckless horticultural youth
Now that the chit chat is over with:
Boards FF for the world cup
donators still welcome:

Secondly, facebook is about as private as having a shouting match in a booth in Eddie Rockets. Sure, there's an illusion it's just 2 or 3 of you talking but in reality everyone is listening. Nobody who wants to keep a discussion or disagreement between themselves does it on a social networking website. Not really the appropriate venue wouldn't you agree? Your comment under Iain's (and I have no opinion whatsoever on its internal merits, I have no idea what's going on there to be totally honest) on his FB page was obviously designed to attract attention to your disagreement and embarrass him in a public manner and any assertion to the contrary would be disingenuous frankly.You are technically correct...the best kind of correct
