My grandma Sadie (z''l) used to sing this when we played Canasta and she picked up the pile: "You had your way, and now you must pay -- I'm glad that you're sorry now!"

(When someone else picked up the pile she'd sing, "You took the part that once was my heart, so why not take all of me!" The melody for both of these refrains is almost the same.)

I was at a friend’s game night and heard someone speaking about in a thick Brazilian accent. Long story short, I have a play date with him and his parents when they visit in August 😄

I have a M.Sc. in and I use it very successfully at , , and . For some reason, I have never managed to become ANY good at . But I have lots of hubris, I mean – pride, so I re-downloaded an app I bought 15 or so years ago and… uh… I seem to have forgotten the rules completely 😬 even the "are you sure you have a brain cell?" level got me stuck. After three moves.

Becoming a chess master might take a while…
