Elizabeth is enjoying her 2nd day touring around Europe while I slave away here in the states. I understand that one could easily spend $40.00 on a small pizza and a coke. Here's a link to her photos.
Tomorrow I get to enjoy one of the best parts of my job, I get to give away $50,000.00 of other people's money. Yes, tomorrow is the finals in Canterbury Park's Let-It-Ride poker tournament. It's always a fun time. People get happy when you give them an ass-load of money.
I got good feedback on the Pokerbeat demo today. I've become so familiar with it that I sometimes can't stand to watch it. It's nice to hear good things about it. I sometimes forget that for a few yahoos from Minnesota and one yahoo from Las Vegas, we did take excellent idea and produce a pretty damn good demo. I'm going to keep a positive attitude and try and remain excited about the pitch next week.
Tickets have been purchased - Heading to Las Vegas on October 31st and flying out of Los Angeles on the evening of the 2nd. It's either going to be the shortest and most wonderful flight I've ever taken, or one long &#*@& trip back.
I didn't know Liz was off to the UK. Did you send her off with cookies and vitimins? When do we get to see the show? I'm getting out of the biz, finally. Talk to you soon.

Posted by: Liz and Kathe at October 24, 2004 08:41 AMHehehe.. Still water. I remember that from Amsterdam. We'd order water and they'd ask, "Still or with gas". I think that's an easy decision.

Posted by: MommytoMaxwell at October 26, 2004 04:36 PMIt just occurred to me, as often as Liz appears here and on the Piping Fresh Hell site, it's high time she has her own blog.
Put that together, Michael.
I vote for MinnLizzie.com
