Dementia for 2

This week's edition of Mixed Bag, is all over the place. I have really enjoyed perusing my week to decide just what to share with ya"ll. I had no idea that I was so extreme in my tastes.

I hope that you find something interesting and exciting to tempt your mind this week.

Hubble Discovery
While I don't prescribe to the "Big Bang" theory, I do find astronomy quite fascinating. To be able to see such photos from deep space never ceases to amaze me.

Patti Smith
. I have always been a big fan of Patti Smith. PBS recently aired a film by Ms Smith. She was an icon of the punk rock era. She is an accomplished poet and very vocal in the political arena. I still can't think of her without thinking of Gilda Radner's tribute.

WSOP This is the poker tournaments to beat all tournaments. Made famous by Benny Binion in the 1970's this has always been held at a Horseshoe Casino. But in recent years, Harrah's has held this tourney at their home property in Tunica, MS. So, Horseshoe has been having all the cash games there. If you follow professional poker at all, then this is the time to see your favorites up close and personal. The cash games are not for the faint of heart. I would not recommend doing what you see on the Travel Channel.
