Title: Semi-amusing story...
Post by: floydjer on September 08, 2016, 09:14:17 AM
*** Note to Slim...regardless of the title..There will be no mention of semi-trucks :cheers: I stopped by my favorite cigar shop for my daily fix...in walked a homeless looking type ( worldly belongings in two plastic bags and he was wearing 3 sweaters with a winter parka ) He placed a handful of change and two empty coke cans on the counter which he used to buy a lottery ticket......scratched off said ticket and won $500....which he used to.......BUY 500 MORE TICKETS. Scout`s honor. I think we know WHY he is homeless.....

Jerry, unh -- were you maybe watching in the one-way surveillance mirror? Did that parka look eerily familiar to you -- just like the one you have? :evil:
Did any of the 500 win??? :-D

Just so you know, Jerry, it's been conclusively proven that the odds of winning the lottery are about the same whether you play it or not. And as an aside the lottery is actually a stoopidity tax.
