Pat, I'm sorry to say that I won't be able to make it tonight. My net connection has been very spotty today, and I'm lucky to get this post out without a disconnect, so I think I'd at best slow down the poker game, and at worst drop out all the time and lose my hand.
I hope it all goes well and that I'll be in consideration for future weeks if my connection is looking up.
So if anyone wants to play, they can have my spot tonight.
