Sweet, sweet victory

Victory is mine! MINE, I say!!

For those of you who didn't witness me in all my glory, I beat Carl at St. Petersburg last night. I believe the conversation went a little something like this:

My friend: (gasps) "Todd, you won!!"
Me: "Ahem...not only did I WIN, but Carl came in LAST!"
My friend: "Um...well yes but you only won by 2 points."
Me: "But I WON! Bwa ha ha ha ha!!!"
Another friend: "Gee Todd...how did you do that? It takes so much skill!"
Me: "Well, see, it was quite simple and trivial..."
Friend #3: "Todd won? I'm so impressed -- you're the best St. Petersburg player in Lansing!"
Me: "Why thank you; I have to agree..."
Friend #3: "Actually, I'll bet that you're the best St. Petersburg player in the entire world!"
Friend #4: "No wait -- in the entire UNIVERSE!"
All my friends: "All hail Todd! He has been victorious at last!"
Carl: "Todd, you're going to have to give me some gaming tips. Have any advice on when to take a Mistress?"

*everyone pauses*

All my friends: (chanting) "Todd! Todd! Todd! Todd!"

This has been one of the best days of my life.

Gee, Todd, don't you think you might be exaggerating just a little?

I mean, uhm, what am I saying? All hail King Todd the Blogless, master of the Universe!

Todd - If you give Carl advice on when to take a Mistress, I shall have to that you will very much regret, involving duct tape, chewing gum, rotten fruit, 5 rats, and a turtle.

shall have to *do something* that you will very much regret

Actually, Todd, give Carl that advice. I'd like to see this vengeance.

A Turtle?!
This must be a slow torture.
