Thanks, A.W.

We have company for the weekend, a couple we've
know for years.

It's the one time of the year I play pinochle.
(MrL and the other couple taught me the game.
Naturally, the guys played it for $$$ in the
service and the wife grew up in the midwest
where obviously there is nothing else to do
on cold nights-ggg)

Me--Never heard of the game before, so I always
get a cheat sheet to remind me of the
point values.

The marriage preservation angle is that it's guys
vs. girls so MrL and I are not on the same team.
I'd much rather gloat than be the cause of a loss. <g>
