February 2005

Well, January was a pretty darn good month for my family and the wins. :) So... now my in-laws want to try their hand at it. I may have to add some new initials to my KEY code to the right to keep up with everyone's wins. But, honestly, I kinda think it's neat -- as soon as you start winning, everyone wants to give it a go. I hope they stick with it, because it definitely takes persistance!
