Havent updated in awhile..

but I just finished reading my new favorite book. Escape From Bellevue is about Chris Campion the lead singer of the Knockout Drops. Its basically a memoir of his life and his struggles of alcoholism and coke problems. He loses everything from his faith in God to his family because of this and also loses his love for music at one point calling it a "griding chore".

I would definitely recommend this book because it was one of those 'page turners' as I like to call them.

Haven't been playing to much poker as of late but I'm gonna be getting back to the grind here shortly.. I recently deposited back onto AP (a site in which I have had many positive experiences (like my first MTT win and many heaters there after) with but couldn't handle playing on a cheating site). I haven't played much on there but I am up about $20 thus far and already FT'd a MTT. Plus 30% rakeback is super legit.

August has been good to me thus far the weather has been nice and my tips are finally getting back to what I had been accustomed to during my first 2 summers at the Old Firehouse Winery.

September is always a good month for me because the second weekend all the guys on my Dads side go up to the Allegheny Mountains rent a cabin, get a keg and cook a hearty tenderloin. The amount of booze and gambling going on creates for a great weekend. The best part besides food and beer (obviously) is the casino is 10 minutes down the road. I played in there Saturday morning tournament last year and split heads up for roughly $800. The card room is small but the dealers and staff were the friendliest people I have experienced in my live experiences thus far.

With Browns season right around the corner Im not expecting much I would like to think we could pull out 6 wins but the QB play in the first game was awful so Ill go with 4 wins at best and probably end up 3-13. I would not be surprised if either of these QBs are on the team next year. I could see the Browns drafting Bradford with the 1st pick already.
