Thanks to Mike for having us all over to the estate!

Got to see Sig, Serge, Marco, and Brad. Met Marco's friend from Japan, Brad's better half, and learned how to play Russian Rules Chess from Serge (take a shot of vodka after every 5th move).

Now I don't know if Russian chess play gets worse the more vodka they shoot or if Russians just become more merciful, but Serge stomped on me the first two games and then I won the third. Of course, I was doing my shots from a measured shot glass and he was doing his shots from a plastic cup and they looked to be double shots -- Serge could put some frat boys to shame shooting vodka. Blech!

Well, it's time to prepare for Vegas, where I plan to act like I know how to play poker (I love watching the poker tours on television). If you're gonna be in Vegas, feel free to stop by the booth and ask me for an autograph ;)

Buff,
if I beat you every time-
you'd never come back, and I am blood thirsty
;-))

good games, mate!

You employed one of your weapons this time: vodka.

Next time I will employ one of mine: I will have my woman flirt with you.

And if that doesn't work, I will make you play without your queen and rooks.

That might not be a good idea -- I could lose the game and the woman.

yeah, but the memorries of THAT game gonna last forever!
;-)))))

I agree. I don't think he'll show up to duel with you, Colin.

Next time Buff bring YOUR OWN bottle of vodka and fill it with water and then KEEP playing Serge beyond three games and you'll be able to say you won more than he did!! :D

Remind me not to gamble against TE....

This is Mike not Serge posting! :D

Hehehehe.... :okthumb:

Serge kept on pouring vodka into my glass. Do not think I have been drunk like that in a long time. Even snuck in a nap before fireworks.

Still recovering Brad???

Glad you made it back to Dallas safely.

See you in Vegas!!

Brad glad to see you made it home safely !

I hope the time you and Serge had together will go to a good future !
