the Earl of YARBOROUGH -- may have been a fine whist player, but he couldn't buy an honor to save his soul...

addendum: for non-gamers - that means no card above a ten; out of thirteen randomly dealt cards not _one_ meager ace, king, queen, or even jack/knave...a very disappointing hand indeed.

We all indulge in his particular practice. The game has been around long enough that there are about ten repetitions that I know of!

(If you're going to be checking before you post a new entry, UNcheck the "search current forum only" box, as this is the second incarnation of this game too.)

Anyhoo. Back to business.
