Default Bang, Bang, Bang - STOMP - WHAM - CRASH Sounds Made me Run

Thanks Gordon,

I Got a bit STEAMED UP and EMOTIONAL in my Story - Here.

It used to Really TICK ME OFF
Having to Buy a new trash can Twice a year.

======
======

I was cutting weeds with my scythe - down the bottom of a hill.

Heard this Really LOUD Banging.

And it went on and on.

So I ran up the hill to the road.

And there was my neighbor - Jumping up and down on a big Garbage Can. So she could fit it into a new Garbage Can.

Spotting me.

She Blushed a bit.

Said, "I am trying to smash this broken rubbermaid garbage can up so the garbage men will know it is Trash."

I looked at the plastic Garbage can she was Jumping up
and down on - later.

Just checked on-line.

A RUBBERMAID Garbage can with wheels - in her Size and Style.

120.00 !!

Last Year I picked up 17 pieces of her Garbage Can in the road.

The Year before I carried their busted Garbage can up their driveway - 2 times.

THIS YEAR - I dunno what Catastrophe
Happened to her Garbage can.

ME?

My Rubbermaid Trash Can has been The Same for 5 Years.

Some HIGHER Math is in order.

120.00 TIMES 5 Years = 600.00

My Plastic Trash can is In Perfect Condition!

My Secret?

I PLAY THE LOTTERY! And Win 100% of the time!

You Ask, "How is this possible?"

Becuz I Have a SYSTEM!

Step I - I Buy some instant Scratch off 1.00 LOTTO tickets

Step II - On trash Day - I Write

"THANK YOU,
Glenn"

on a 3 by 5 Card.

Step III - Then I Staple the Thank you Card to a LOTTO ticket.

Step IV - Then I put both into a clear plastic bag. Tie it to the Trash Can Handle.

Step V - Set the Trash can Next to my Mail box.

RESULT?

Each week I find my Trash Can Nestled Safely in my grass. Well away from the Road.

You say, "PSAW!"

"That would happen Bribe or no bribe."

I SAY, "OH YEAH?"

"Have you ever seen Your Spanking new 120.00 Plastic Trash Can Flipped High in the Air on a December morning at 6 am - Temp is 10 Degrees Farhenheit?- by the Trash men?

And the Brittle Plastic Crack and Splits down the side like thin Glass?

WELL I HAVE.

But it no longer happens to me.

BECAUSE My TRASH Men - Play The LOTTERY on my behalf.

They seems to have Won Something too! Cuz They wave and Honk the horn at me when they see me.

But I win 100% of the time.

600.00 A year.

Thanks,
Glenn Osborn

Default The joys of country living. Here in the City...

Our trash cans are provided by the city. In fact, 3 of them, one for trash/garbage...one for recyclables and one for yard waste.

I've never seen one damaged by a truck, the system is pretty effective. But, of course, the downside CON of it all...neighbors.

So, your 120 bux a year, might be worth it for your quiet and solitude, eh?

Gordon

Default I don't think poker is gambling, less a game of chance and as you teach...

oGlenn,

Great stuff. Poker is about reading people, some luck, but one can walk away with significant winnings, without being the big winner at the table.

It cost me about 1200 dollars, took almost 18 months, but when I left my first submarine to go to a different one, I walked away with over $5,000.00 which was won in about 5 days time at the poker table.

The crew was baffled. They called it luck. It was a personal sting operation I had planned.

In addition to the 5k bux, I had 3 months of pay waiting, plus 3 months of chatteling my partner from the other crew had done. We had two crews on the sub, each one onboard for 90 days.

Only qualified crew could get into the poker game. The day after I qualified, I dropped about 200 at the poker table in a couple of hours. I was fresh meat.

Over the course of the next two patrols I became a casual player, always losing and bemoaning my luck, while letting crew members TEACH me how to play. In port, while off the boat, there was a weekly game too. I nabbed the best players on the boat and offered them bribes to teach me.

Over the course of 6 months, I learned every TELL, every strategy, every opinion they had about each other.

So, I waited. Patiently. With about 10 days left to our patrol, I made the move. We knew the last 5 days were hectic, a lot of drills, cleaning, inspections...day 10 to day 5 were the money days at the poker table.

I started my win streak with small amounts and lots of joy and celebration. Funny thing, all of these guys were BEAMING at my success, because they all felt they were my mentor, and in fact, even protective of me. They enjoyed seeing their student win.

Then the last couple of days got insane, 65 guys wanted a seat, but only 6 or 7 were available and the winner of the last night, claimed a seat. I never gave mine up.

Well, by the end, pots were getting up into the hundreds and even a couple of over a thousand dollars. And I cashed in (or out) big time. The Chief of the Boat (one of my mentors, at a cost of a bottle of Chivas Regal) took pride in cutting me the check for over 6500 dollars, he said it was the largest check he ever did. Many guys would make 2 to 3k a patrol, those pros...but few ever got above 4k.

I bought a lot of bottles of booze before I left, gave little gifts and trinkets out...THANKING everyone for being such a help.
