Look what I got for Christmas
 

This is a sculpture I got from my mom. I found it online at www.pokerplayingdogs.net .

That's pretty sweet... unimaginably cool in the spectrum of poker gifts.

I understand that the original painting of Dogs Playing Poker sold at auction for $594,000.

My mom had a stroke tonight. She is in the hospital, and is weak on one side of her body, and can't see on that side.

Bruce I'm sorry to hear that. I'd like to wish both of you well.

Personally I'm a huge fan of the poker playing dogs. Lots of people think it's tacky but I think it's really neat with a lot of character. I certainly wouldn't mind getting a gift like that.

That's a terrific present.

I do hope your Mom is okay as can be, and recovering. My best wishes to you and yours.
