Hearing the name Toto most folks would immediately be reminded of the line in the Wizard of Oz when Judy Garland says Toto, I've a feeling we're not in Kansas any more. But that is not the Toto I am writing about today. Toto today is the company that makes Toto sinks along with other plumbing stuff like toilets and accessories and things for the bathroom. They have been in business for more than 90 years so you know they must be manufacturing great stuff.
The site selling Toto products is, for me, way ahead of their competition. The site is clean and orderly (like a bathroom should be) and easy to get around on. And, the best part for me as someone that likes to shop online, they accept PayPal. That may seem silly but not to me. there are tons of people that either have no credit card or choose not to use the credit cards they have online and PayPal is the excellent choice as a replacement for that. So it is very nice to see a company that accepts that as a payment for goods.
So, if you have been thinking that your bathroom could use a new look or perhaps you just want something that might help you conserve water (a very precious commodity these days in amny states) you should go take a gander at the goods that are offered and check out all the Toto supplies.

After all these years
I watched It's A Wonderful Life a few nights ago and, even though I know what's coming and when, the ending always brings a tear to my eyes. Frank Capra was a true movie making genius in my book.
Poker is, well, poker. Some days I seem brilliant and other days I seem like an idiot at best. Still working on being a more patient player because it pays off. Sometimes though I just get tired of looking at decent cards to start a hand and having the same jackass go all in with every hand. I got better things to do than just sit there and be that patient LOL

Happy Holidays
It is almost Christmas Day, a time when many people around the world are happy and feel good about life. But, sadly, many people also die around the holiday season and that bears some deep thinking. If you were to pass away, what would your family do? Are you prepared to help them with all the financial mess that comes from a death in the family?
Even though your mind may be racing around with thoughts of gifts for friends and loved ones, you should also take a few moments to think about Life Insurance and wholesaleinsurance.net.
You can check out different types of insurance and find a policy that fits you and your budget. Whether you are a smoker or not, if you are a senior citizen, whatever category fits you you still can find some insurance there.
Don't leave your loved ones hanging, wondering how they will afford to put you to rest. If you don't do it today, at least make it your New Year's Resolution.
Have a very happy and safe holiday season no matter what holiday you celebrate.

It's A Bluff
Bluffers amaze me. I just watched one bet 1500 dollars even though there were four spades on the table. All any of the other players needed was a spade, just one. And someone called him and raised him another 3000. Bluffer wisely folded. What a ding a ling LOL
I rarely bluff. Not because I don't know how, but I realize how costly it can be if you are called. Not worth my time effort or money.
See you on the felt...

Phone Check
I know it may sound strange to you but there are still many people that do not have a credit card. They prefer to pay by check, perhaps because there is an instant record of just what they have spent which makes sense to me. But, if you are an online business then how do you get these people without a credit card to purchase your goods? There is a solution to your problem.
There is a place where you can go called Q-Check which will give you the means to accept a phone check or even a check by fax. This allows you to accept purchases by those without a credit card or those that simply wish to pay by check for whatever reason.
The great thing about this program is that they will allow you to try it out for free, for a whole month (thirty days). This will give you the opportunity to see just how it works and if it is a right fit for your operations.
Why deprive yourself and your company of the money that these people have to spend? Money earned is money, no matter if by credit card, debit card or check. And that is why you're in business, to make money.
Give this product a whirl and see if it can work for you!

I stink
I've been playing horrible games lately. I am impatient, too impatient. I want things to happen NOW lol
I must work on playing slower, watching what I am doing, relaxing. Remembering that games are supposed to be fun might help :)

One More Time
I know it seems like I harp on this a lot on this blog and you are correct. It may seem even stranger considering that I am as skinny as a stick. Always will be, I'm sure.
But I have always been surrounded by people that couldn't seem to lose weight and keep it off their bodies. The holiday season never helped them in that regard either. Too many rich, fattening foods that are too delicious to pass up. Perhaps you too are one of those folks. So, I continue to blog about such things as weight loss pills.
It would be really nice if someone actually invented a pill that would make people lose weight, but no one has done that, at least not a pill that works for every single person no matter what.
But, if you are trying to lose some pounds then you have to at least give these diet pills a try. You cannot afford to pass up something that might actually work for you, not if you are serious about losing that weight.
And with these pills, you have nothing to lose but weight. They come with a money back guarantee, so you can try them and, if they are not right for you, ask for and get a refund. So, give them a try.
Lose that weight now and enjoy not just the holiday season but every single day, healthier and in better shape.

Worst Game Week Ever
It seems like, no matter how well one plays, there is always the possibility that someone else will play better. I must learn patience!!
Have a great week, everyone. Stay safe, stay warm :)

Digital Memories
One of the nicest things I seen about progress and computers and digital cameras is the digital frame.
Instead of just an old photo that you look at once in a great while and, if you have a moment, think about the person in the photo and smile. With a digital frame you have more options, for instance you can get a digital frame that has an MP3 player inside, so you not only get to remember something or someone special to you, you get to enjoy your favorite music as well. How neat is that? Just look:

How neat is that? Just look:
Whether you want to look at one single picture or many there is a digital frame for you. Why be tied down to a single picture in an any given frame? In a digital photo frame, your images are only limited to your photos on your memory card. These frames also make excellent gifts for any occasion, like Christmas (which is right around the corner).
So, take a few moments to think about how nice a digital frame would be sitting on your computer desk or anywhere else and how much you would enjoy looking at pictures you've taken. Or, if it's a gift for someone think about all the pictures you'd like to share. Maybe loading a digital frame up with say all the family and sending those pictures to Grandma and Grandpa. Then they could enjoy looking at you and the kids over and over. As a grandpa myself I know how much I have enjoyed seeing pictures of my grandkids.
Okay, now that you have thought about it, go get yourself a digital frame. What the heck, buy several and use them for different types of photos or as gifts.
How Strange
Went bowling on my league yesterday and actually bowled very well for a change. Didn't do the team much good though as we lost three of the four points LOL
I like the new poker site NoPay Poker but they really need to work on their software. In a five player game two of the five were "away" for the entire time I was there, roughly 45 minutes. I finally got tired of playing with the one other person that was actually playing the game and went all in with nothing and lost. The problem is that in that five person game they only pay out 2 positions and the two that were away were probably going to end up winning all the money. How retarded!
I did some Christmas shopping online last night for the two females in my life. Hopefully their presents will get here in time LOL
The mice in my house are getting noisier and bolder. What the hell is up with that? Aren't they supposed to be afraid of humans? I definitely need to buy some mouse traps! I hate mice!!!

Ho, Ho, Ho?
Are you starting to look like Santa Claus? Does your belly jiggle and wiggle like jelly? If it does then the holiday season with all the fancy foods and desserts isn't going to help you much.
Maybe it is time for you to look into a diet pill like the adipex diet pill. Start taking those unwanted pounds off now and restrict your food intake during this holiday season. yes, that means ignoring all the cakes and pies or at the very least eating very small portions of them.
That fat may be keeping you warmer during the winter months but it isn't worth it. All those unwanted pounds of fat may be more hazardous to your health than the extra warmth is worth. And, with the exception of the holiday party where everyone asks you to be Santa Claus because of your weight, there truly is no real genuine benefit to being overweight.
Time to be serious and seriously think about becoming a new, slimmer you. Let someone else fit into the Santa fat suit. You'll look better and feel better as well. And, you will be healthier.

Playing Meaner
Lately I've noticed that my poker playing is getting more aggressive. This is not always a good thing but occasionally it seems to work just fine. I refuse to be bullied out of hands simply because some idiot made a large bet, bluffing.
What amazes me about a bluffer is that after all the cards are on the table and I have re-raised his bet thinking I have the best hand (and I do), why in the heck do they call that re-raise showing all the people at the table that they had nothing to bet on? Makes absolutely no sense to me. If I'm bluffing and I get a re-raise like that I fold that hand so no one can see that I was full of baloney. I'd rather they think I was too chicken to call and waste more chips.
Playing aggressively does seem to have a major drawback for me. I need to learn to leave my anger emotion away from the table. I have made bad calls out of anger and lost more than it is worth. I need to constantly remind myself that there will always be other hands to play and that, sooner or later, if I am patient I will get the dork that keeps going all in right after the flop or even pre-flop.
Poker is, for me, an ongoing learning process.

Where Do You Put That Gift?
It's time for Christmas shopping in a big way. Even though the news people keep saying that the economy is still down and people are not going to be spending a lot of money I don't see that as being true. The folks they interviewed for Black Friday waited overnight in long lines to buy really expensive items like laptops and HD televisions and big screen t.v.s. Does that sound like they aren't parting with their hard earned dollars?
If you are one of the many that is ready to buy (or has already bought) a new television for that family room or bedroom then you are also going to be in the market for tv stands. You can't just set that big screen t.v. on the floor, that would be tacky and pretty silly.
I know most people wouldn't even think about these things, their thoughts are gone as their eyes glaze over just admiring that screen and how wonderful every television show and movie is going to look on it. But, once you've bought that gift for the family where are you going to put it?
First off, I'd offer some advice, but I don't really have any as I have no clue what your living space looks like and I doubt that you'd give me the details. But, you can get some advice from people that know what's what about such things. If you need help choosing a stand or a mount, give them a call at 800-807-1477. They will be happy to help you decide which mount or stand is the right one for you and your television room.
So, that should solve the placement problem. Then all you have to do is put the set wherever you want it, on the stand or mount of your choosing and sit back in your easy chair and enjoy!
