I consider Jerry Yang a friend. Anyone who has won the Main Event is wayyyy ahead of me and I’m quite impressed. Jerry is having a book signing, of his new book obviously, on July 6th in the Brasillia Room 3 from 10am-1pm and 3pm-5pm. It would be great to show support for a Main Event winner, and certainly a gracious ambassador for our great game.

I have struggled for 179 days in second grade to get Lincoln ready for school. He lollygaggs then it’s a mad dash. This morning he was up, dressed in a collar shirt (generally he tries to do a tee shirt and I make him wear a collared shirt to be more of a gentleman and no I dont care what the other kids wear), hair sprayed down, teeth brushed and EVEN his shoes on, a task which is usually accomplished in the car on the way to school. I was SHOCKED. “Wow I say Lincoln you’re all ready, looking sharp, what’s the deal? “It’s the LAST day of school” he quipped. Kids are so damn funny.
