The Chronic Consumer

One thing I’ve always wanted to do is learn more about wine, so I’m thinking of either taking a class or buying a couple of books on the subject. As things stand now, I’m utterly clueless about what to look for when I scan the wine racks at local liquor stores, and simply have no idea about how to pick out a decent bottle. This is kind of embarrassing, especially when I’m invited to dinner parties and want to bring the hostess something to serve with the meal.

At any rate, I’m going to the bookstore later tonight or maybe tomorrow, so I’m going to try to grab a couple of relevant titles then!

Even though I’ve been playing blackjack and other card games for a couple of decades now, I still can’t shuffle cards very well. This is particularly true when using more than one deck, which is a must if you want to simulate casino blackjack. So that’s why I want to buy this automatic card shuffler that I saw while browsing through a site called PoolDawg.com.

This automatic card shuffler is similar to what you’d find in casinos and can handle up to four decks. It’s suitable for blackjack, poker, and any other game where you want a good, thorough shuffle without having to handle the cards yourself.

There wasn’t a whole lot of information about this card shuffler available in the product description, but it only costs about $12, so it’s not like I’d be going out on a limb by buying it!
