Maria Bartiromo pronounces every "s" as a soft "sh". It's getting worse. |

9. You are, as Steven R.Covey said, investing in your "personal bank account" |
|
with her.
When she kills the orchid, your interest rate will shoot up as a result of her guilt.
Then you can manipulate the situation to your further great advantage.
That's what friends are for.

I'll call you if you want! ;) Except that I'm usually at tai-chi and playing mah-johng after. So it ain't me.

28. Fun. I used to play mah-jongg with my friend Cynthia and assorted pals |
|
Cynthia had come back from Hong Kong and had become addicted to the crazy Hong Kong Mah-Jongg, so she and her sister and Aitch and I would get hypercaffeinated, play for a few hours, then go home with bloody hands.
Once I tried to play American Mah-Jongg with some co-workers in DC during lunch and became so agitated by the change in rules that I never played with them again.
Probably need some tai-chi to get centered and expel all that rage.

30. we don't bet or anything like that |

we play a pretty mellow version. Lots of snacks and chat, and all that. Not a lot of high action, or slamming of tiles. It would probably be cool to see a serious game.

29. Monkeydarts nails it commenting on idiot Kudlow's blog: |
|
Monkeydarts said... cmaye sez: "Does anyone notice that Maria Bartiromo tries to talk like Barbara Walters?" I didn't notice that but I did notice that, like many female TV personalities, she pronounces "S" as "SH". Annoying, and another good reason to leave the mute button on.http://lkmp.blogspot.com/2005/06/death-of-death-tax-ii.html#111938423475079550Sick and wrong.
