Poker God forever
It's true that I'm quite humble (as my About Me shows !), but that doesn't mean that I should constantly be hiding all of my accomplishments you know....
Yeah, so my friend dragged me to this poker tournament with 100 people playing, we were 50 minutes late (10 more minutes late and we wouldn't/couldn't even get in). I didn't rebuy or add-on and had fewer chips than everyone else at my table. My AQ lost to pocket 3's and 4's three times in all-in situations !!! I had decided to throw my AQ away forever, but in the last hand, I was the big blind, the guy went all-in, and I ditched my senses and called. Obviously he had pocket 3's again ! and that's how I became 2nd after playing for 6 hours and that's how AQ lost for the 4th time and that's why there's so much debate about why AQ sucks (now there's one more reason) ;)
Moral of the story:
1. In some poker tournaments, pocket 3's are better than pocket aces.
2. Sometimes it's quite harmful to ditch your senses.
3. It's good that your house is close to everywhere.
4. In case of emergency, make sure you dial 911.
5. Good always wins, unless Bad wins first.
6. Moral number 5 is very important.

Philosophy of Life 2: Good & Bad
This is the result of a ski trip (!): a new proposition for the philosophy of life. I take no responsibility for it though. I just filled some of its holes and combined two different theories together to make a little sense of it. It's all my friends' faults. Please kill THEM if you don't like it.
There's no God, we will end once dying. There's no "good" and "bad". It's all about "Karma" and "energy" though. Some actions have "positive" energy, some "negative". When you do a "positive" action, it brings your "energy" level up. Now, with energy levels, is a probability associated. The higher your energy level, the higher the chance that something with positive energy happens to you (like money brings money kind of thing ;)). So assuming that killing someone for no reason is a negative energy action, if you kill someone for no reason, your energy level goes down and the chances that someone kills you for no reason goes up. Some people might do positive things in all their life, but still they're killed for no "fair" reason. It's all about probabilities.

Orkut Hacked ??
:) It seems like my orkut's either hacked or screwed up ! I am a member of "internet lovers" community, brazillian version !! Not that it's not true, but that would probably be the last community I would join. I hope it's a friend's joke who has somehow in a very strange way that I can't think of, has hacked my password. Otherwise someone might have found a way to forcefully make others a member of his/her community. That's quite interesting. Or it's just a mistake like all other orkut's screw ups.
