I do remember, but my minor corrections turned into a long and very boring story. I figured that the least I could do was spare the rest of you from pages of tripe.:D

Did someone say Tripe? One of my faves. Prepared the traditional Italian way.

So the southern version is served with grits and fried ochra?? :hmm:

So clean 'em up and speak yer piece! My memory isn't what it once was. Heck, my memory never was what it once was!

Sorry for ripping off Fiddler on the Roof, but sometimes I can't help myself.

Enjoyed the read Steve, as the others have said "felt like I was there".

Sounds like all of you had a good time.

Thanks for taking the time to do this. :rock:

LMAO :rotfl:

A Jewish guy called Jacob finds himself in serious financial difficulty. So desperate is he, that he decides only God can help him now. He goes to synagogue and prays hard. "Help me God", he wails, "I've lost my business and if I don't get some money, I'm going to lose my house as well. Please, just let me win the lotto."
When lotto night comes Jacob has no luck. Week after week he sees someone else win the jackpot, and so returns to synagogue, and this time he begs, "My God, why have you forsaken me? I have lost my business, my house, my car. My wife and children are starving. I have always been a good servant to you. Why won't you let me win the lotto just this one time?"
Suddenly there is a brilliant flash of light as the heavens part and Jacob is confronted by the voice of God himself. "Jacob," the voice booms, "meet me half way, buy a feckin' ticket!"

I did win $1,100 bucks in 1993 on the Illinois Little Lotto. Somehow I think that has funded that last 15 years of losing all the time. :cool:

BTW:
I cap my spending/purchasing to $3.00 per week and NEVER exceed that regardless of the jackpot size.

If I win, ... ever, I am going to shout like Orson Wells in Moby Dicky as the preacher and say:

"I seek the whale and spit on thee dry land". :rotfl:

I wish you luck.....I spend £4 per week on the UK national lottery and have won numerous £10 prizws and one £40 :oops:

Haha....Dr Pepper. It might have cost you a dollar or two more to have it served to you "hot."



[See "Blast From the Past", starring Brendan Frasier and Alicia Silverstone,"
and featuring: Christopher Walken as the "hot Dr. Pepper" lover...].

Good story, and thanks.
