Sooo, I am playing in my monthly poker game tonight.  Nothing fancy, just a few guys desperately trying to believe they can break the bank some day.  And I got to thinking.......... if I were to pledge all my winnings to Kiva, do you think they'd pledge to cover any losses?

Kivafriends.org scrambled and respelled is "Risk And Forgive."  Of course, it also can be respelled "Asked For Virgin" and "Darer of Vikings" and even "Vinegar For Kids" but those are a lot less interesting.

No, but if you lose enough, you might qualify for a Kiva loan!

Is it a Kiva race?  That wouldnt be a bad idea...every cause seems to have a 5k, why not Kiva in some of our local communities?  Good luck with that card game...takes me back a few years.

I find not direction in the readings of those with whom my eccentricities are similar, but rather validation.

My only solace is that I find a peaceful place where I might be resigned to my depriving loneliness.

My gains were destroyed in a single hand, when my Ace high flush ran into quad 6's.  That's poker.
