Last night everybody except Yossi played poker at Jona's rather echoey house. Yossi was learning how to get killed while wearing a brand new effod and carrying a snazzy M-16. Jona served Thai-style chicken curry, which was delicious. Nik brought Salt and Vinegar Pringles, which were also delicious, but, surprisingly enough, contained lactose. Odd.
Poker started with an awful lot of noise and very little concentration. Eric was sending emails, Jona was being rude to his sister-in-law, Gary was trying to point out that the story in Nomi's Sleeping Beauty book wasn't accurate, Jonah shouted about it being OK that the World Series of baseball is open only to American teams. Eventually we imposed a silence rule and things calmed down a bit.
Nik told quite a hilarious story about the time he went to a restaurant and asked for breasts instead of a menu.
We ate jam donuts.
Rafi lost all his money, despite playing two hands blind. He didn't buy in for any more, which makes him a spoilsport. Eric lost 52.5 shekels, taking him 1.5 shekels away from the -400 mark for the year.
Jona was the big winner with 59 shekels.
The end of 2008 is nigh. I haven't decided whether to continue this year's graph or start another one, but if there are any graphs you would like me to produce based on this year's winnings and losings data, now is the time to suggest them.
Scores on last night's doors:
Gary 22
Nik 19.5
Jonah 32
Jona 59
Adrian -5
Eric -52.5
Rafi -75

For the record, Major League Baseball is open to teams in Canada as well (the Toronto Blue Jays and until recently the Montreal Expos).
