I'm moving my blog over to cardrunners because cardrunners is a pretty bangin' web site. I'm not sure how everything is going to work yet or if all my old blog entries will be on here or not, but I assume we'll be able to work out the kinks in the future. They're also forcing me to do about 5 blog entries a month, so it's going to be brutal to keep up with that based on my track record. There's a reasonable chance I do less than 5 a month, but I'll shoot for 5 . I still have a lot of tweaking to do with this site to get the formats how I like it.

Furthermore, poker has been going pretty great lately. I'm stepping it up to 25/50 NL and sometimes 50/100 NL. September so far has been a great month, and I've double what I made from January - August. I'm not going to say there wasn't any luck involved, because it's been a lot of luck. Pretty much once a month each month this year I've tried taking shots at 25/50 NL, but I've had small stop limits and I'd usually lose around 2-5 buyins before giving up and moving back down to between 2/4 NL and 10/20 NL. Finally this month everything went smooth and I've steadily won a lot of moola.

I just got DVR about a month ago and upgraded my tv to include a ton of channels. It's pretty sweet to have access to all sorts of stuff. On Demand lets me catch up on Dexter. It also lets me try some new shows out like Flight of the Conchords. That show hilariously depicts two aspiring digipop musicians New Zealand who are socially inept with almost no fans who are trying to make ends meet. They intertwine the songs they make with the show in a pretty original way (well, knowing tv, it's got to be copied from somewhere, but this is the first time I've seen it done really well). TWO THUMBS UP.

In books, I've been reading How Capitalism Saved America and it is an amazing book. If you are interested in politics and the economy this book explains the reality of capitalism and debunks many myths surrounding capitalism. Do you think corporations are evil? This book will explain why you are an idiot. That might be harsh, but my opinion is that most people that are anti-free market economy don't understand the reality of the situation. Furthermore, people think America is a capitalist society, but it is not. The only reason our economy has flourished for so long is related to the government's lax laws on business. Recently (past 75 years or so) we've gotten completely out of hand and our economy is going to plummet in the future. As much as I complain about the government, it's still relatively pretty good compared to the world. If you want to know which countries economies are going to grow the most in the next 20 years (assuming no wars or natural disasters or great political changes happen), just look at this list: Index of Economic Freedom.
