Poker, Harry Potter, and The Red Envelope

     This evening I reached into my post office box and pulled out the normal trash mail and a few other pieces that were actually of importance. But as far as the trash mail is concerned, I never can understand how some of these companies can afford to waste so money in trash and postage.

     One piece of mail was a red envelope, sealed, with a wax crest. I was very interested to see what the envelope contained. I kind of felt like Harry Potter getting his invite from Hogwarts. The red envelope contained an invitation to a poker game that usually consists of a group of professional book authors, authors names not permitted. I have been asked many times if I might like to play cards with the guys, as they say, but have never been actually invited till tonight. Tonight is going to be fun!

     I guess in Washington they sure have great poker faces, but they suck at cards.
