.

`Certainly,' said Alice.

`And only one for birthday presents, you know. There's glory for you!'

`I don't know what you mean by "glory",' Alice said.

Humpty Dumpty smiled contemptuously. `Of course you don't -- till I tell you. I meant "there's a nice knock-down argument for you!"'

`But "glory" doesn't mean "a nice knock-down argument",' Alice objected.

`When I use a word,' Humpty Dumpty said, in rather a scornful tone, `it means just what I choose it to mean -- neither more nor less.'

`The question is,' said Alice, `whether you can make words mean so many different things.'

`The question is,' said Humpty Dumpty, `which is to be master -- that's all.'

Alice was too much puzzled to say anything; so after a minute Humpty Dumpty began again. `They've a temper, some of them -- particularly verbs: they're the proudest -- adjectives you can do anything with, but not verbs -- however, I can manage the whole lot of them! Impenetrability! That's what I say!'

`Would you tell me please,' said Alice, `what that means?'

`Now you talk like a reasonable child,' said Humpty Dumpty, looking very much pleased. `I meant by "impenetrability" that we've had enough of that subject, and it would be just as well if you'd mention what you mean to do next, as I suppose you don't mean to stop here all the rest of your life.'

`That's a great deal to make one word mean,' Alice said in a thoughtful tone.

`When I make a word do a lot of work like that,' said Humpty Dumpty, `I always pay it extra.'

`Oh!' said Alice. She was too much puzzled to make any other remark.

`Ah, you should see 'em come round me of a Saturday night,' Humpty Dumpty went on, wagging his head gravely from side to side, `for to get their wages, you know.'

(Alice didn't venture to ask what he paid them with; and so you see I can't tell you.)

To those who stop by:

I don't play much poker anymore. I had Full Tilt deleted from my comp in late Dec., and only re-installed when I found I had won seats into the $5K RMR freeroll and the WSOP freeroll. I played like a true moron in the RMR freeroll when I played my KK against what I knew was AA after I had pot-committed myself. Dumb play. Didn't play again until WSOP freeroll, and went out when my opponent flopped a set of 9's over my flopped set of 7's. Wasn't an all-in... played properly by both players, but that's poker. I gave away my BR's in Dec. for Tilt & Stars - wasn't much, maybe $30 between the 2, and uninstalled them both, along with all the other sites except 1. I still have Reefer Poker on the comp, because I have a considerable BR there, but I haven't played since Jan.

I have not lost my desire to play.... have just transferred my energies to my schoolwork, and some other things I'm studying. I still come by Railbirds every day... it's my Home Page. Most times if you see me online, I probably have 5-6 other pages open as well. If I don't get back to you right away, I will when I get back to checking the page. But I won't be playing any poker. I'm either doing schoolwork or homework. C'est la vie... that's life. Schoolwork sux. The other stuff... not so much.
