Pocket aces are nice, but I like suited big slick myself.

Big slick is Ace-King. Suited means being of the same suit.
With suited big slick, you will have top pair if a match comes up in the face up cards, plus you have a flush draw (three more of the same suit) or a draw to the highest straight (A-K-Q-J-10).
It's a pretty good hand.

Mother Teresa was responsible for converting many to the Faith. It's just that she understood that the best way to convert someone is by the example of life, not disputation. Having been on the receiving end of "missionary outreach" by fundamentalists (who think I'm going to Hell because I'm a Catholic), I think that attempts to convert based on argument and disputation are often counter-productive today.

O creator past all telling,
you have appointed from the treasures of your wisdom
the hierarchies of angels,
disposing them in wondrous order
above the bright heavens,
and have so beautifully set out all parts of the universe.
You we call the true fount of wisdom
and the noble origin of all things.
Be pleased to shed
on the darkness of mind in which I was born,
The twofold beam of your light
and warmth to dispel my ignorance and sin.
You make eloquent the tongues of children.
Then instruct my speech
and touch my lips with graciousness.
Make me keen to understand, quick to learn,
able to remember;
make me delicate to interpret and ready to speak.
Guide my going in and going forward,
lead home my going forth.
You are true God and true man,
and live for ever and ever.

All those fast moving clouds seemingly near the smokestack are really driving me nuts! I've glanced at the webcam feed a couple of times already and been absolutely sure there was smoke billowing out -- only to learn it was a cloud.
GRRRRRRRR.

From that angle, they kind of look like the Imperial Guards from Star Wars...

go to CBS - it's a closeup. The sky isn't interfering with the pipe in he foreground...
To: el_chupacabra
The cbs feed is a closer shot and less frustrating that way.

Glad to see that I'm not alone.
I ran from the computer to the big
screen TV to make sure I was seeing clouds...lol.

If anybody's interested, EWTN is starting to run the mass from this morning's start of the Conclave over again.
