Three-day weekends rule! Mine was as perfect as any weekend could be and included heavy rations of friends, family, fireworks, flushes and full houses. We played so much poker — for chips, since who could afford to lose money in this economy? — that I’m seeing cards in my dreams. It was my first time playing and I ended up getting five full houses Saturday night, four of a kind at one point on Sunday (nice!), and last night — a straight flush, the [approximate odds of which are 72,192.33 : 1](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poker%5Fprobability?ref=bklyner.com). I almost fell off my chair.

So, how’d you guys and gals spend your weekend?
