An introduction of sorts

I'm far to used to places which don't allow lurkers and require intros to not give one.
A little birdie told me that if I mentioned I was a chick I'd get more responses ;) It helps that that's a true statement.
Anyway, I'm Strix. I just started playing poker. I've been listening to Fnord talk about his poker playing now for over a year and finally decided to see if we could turn this into a two income household. Sadly I'm still a rank newbie but I did manage to win a couple of hands today.
So yeah, that's me. Now back to reading everything in the house about poker I can get my hands on...

Welcome, strix! Nice to have a lady join us.

Some tips:
Fnord is Sklansky.
Rippy is Hansen.
'rilla is crazy.

By the way... got monkey?

Am I reading this right? Strix = Mrs. Fnord?

Welcome to FTR. Enjoy your stay.

I just checked her IP.

Ummm... Fnord? Either this truly is your wife, or you're doing something naughty.

Nah, we're really two people, just from the same IP address because of the wireless router. Yeah, we're all married and stuff. Scary isn't it?

Long day? I thought she should have been a little less obvious about it...

I hadn't even considered how much power we can now wield. Awesome. Hey Fnord, care to push me over the remaining $500 for my goal? I promise not to make up horrendous lies about your misdeed and tell them to Strix as long as you have it done by, oh, say tomorrow.

:lol:

Especially after the rampant make-out sessions in every Limit thread.

It's a little bit of information overload right now. I'm hoping that either my brain will catch up or he'll slow down with throwing stuff at me.

And, no one else gets to marry Fnord unless they want to fight me for him ;) Bwahahaha!

The thing you fail to realize is that prior to poker, I went out and fought people every weekend, for sport. (Literally...a sport called melee - fighting with padded weapons). If Fnord were female and Becky weren't alive, you'd have one hell of a fight on your hands!
