Were two infatuated by her charms that spoke of promise for the lucky one, who gathered up and held her in his arms, the cards were dealt, the last game had begun. A fickle hand indeed was dealt to me, the other players fist was full of hearts, I saw his bet and raised on jacks of three, then drew the fourth, but, here's the funny part. With confidence he moved his stake all in, I held the jack to fill his royal flush, I called quite certain I was sure to win, the moment had arrived the room fell hush. Without a wild card she'd turned her back on both of us and dealt that extra jack. |

Nan, Thanks. I have learned, but, woke up about 3:00 am the other day and started composing this while trying to get back to sleep. Guess I should adjust my medication. Doc Marge, Thanks, I'm glad you liked. You're all aces! Doc |
