Unsecured internet connections

I love idiots who don’t secure there internet connection.  Why? Because anyone can get free internet….like I am doing.  Ahhh.  I arrived at Chicago Midway 20 minutes early and safe.  I’m currently hanging out with the grandparents.  It’s nice to be home along with seeing green and feelin warm temperatures! oooh, did I mention I had a delicious gyro at Nickies??? Mmmm.  I miss Nicky’s and Midway.

Storm Chase begins Friday June 1st. Check out the Chase page to the right — under categories.

AT-SAT score is in

The other day, my AT-SAT results arrived.  I recieved a 93.1.  The following are parts from the letter I recieved.

A score of 70.0 or above is required to pass the AT-SAT. An AT-SAT score of 70 or above will be placed in “hold” status for applicants in the Air Traffic Collegiate Training Inistiative (AT-CTI) program until the applicant graduates from an FAA approved AT-CTI program. (Embry Riddle is one).

Eligible applicants are categorized as “well-qualified” or “qualified” based on AT-SAT scores. Applicants with scores of 85.0 or higher are considered “well-qualified.” Applicants with scores of 70.0-84.9 are considered “qualified.”

Power hour in 45 minutes?!

Confused? So am I. 

Let me just say, that was a fun evening! Power hour started late and we wanted to get poker going. But we couldn’t do power hour and play poker at the same time, believe me. By the time we said “cheers”, drank the shot, filled our glasses, 25 seconds already elapsed. Man, those minutes went by fast. The first 30 minutes went as planned, 1 shot of beer per minute. After 30 minutes, I suggested to quit power hour and get the poker game going.

Somebody, and I won’t mention names, basically said, Hey, lets do one shot every 30 seconds to speed it up so we can play poker.  So, that’s what was done, for most of us. The next 15 minutes were 1 shot per 30 seconds.  I lasted about 5 shots in the “Speed Round”. Kathy almost puked. We were plowed. haha.

The break down:
The first 30 minutes: 1 shot per minute
The next 15 minutes: 1 shot per 30 seconds

Pictured below are just a few pictures from that evening. Poker was fun as usual. I knocked out 4 players in one hand! Yeah buddy. Dan and I were heads up where I let Dan win. Well actually, we were both winners. I’m actually more content with making the top 2 then actually winning. Anyways.

More along with video will be posted some time in the way way future.

Poker and Power Hour

Last nights poker tournament was fun but I didn’t win.  However, the learning curve is over at least. I’ll definately play again. 

Later this evening, there will be a power hour, some grillin, and poker - all at T Love’s hideaway.

Entering a poker tournament

Tonight I will be entering a Texas Hold’em poker tournament to strut my stuff. It’s free to enter and play. The game should last about 3-4 hours. The winner, hopefully me, will recieve a free seat at a $5,000 tournament.

Oh what a night

T Love and his woman started off at McKay’s pub, completed a few beers off our list, then headed over to Robbies for a pint. Good shit man. haha.  After Robbies, we walked across the street and met up with Bubba and Mr. G-Stylin Carlos at Rain club. The followling picture is us at rain.
