  1. What cracks me up about people who win 100s of millions of dollars in the lottery is that they go hire an investment manager to help them invest the money. WHAT THE EFF ARE YOU INVESTING FOR? You’d have a hard time spending all the interest earned off that money while it sits in the bank. Eff investing.

  2. Ooh, I just checked, I can’t see BHB either. And I was just about to post a funny dialogue between my and my boss Cobble about firing me! : P Ah well.

    It went something like this:

    Cobble’s boss, Cobble: Cobble, I just got a call about you posting on something called BHB?
    Cobble: Oh really, I’m surprised by that.
    Cobble’s boss, Cobble: They said they weren’t amused by your antics.
    Cobble: Oh dear, I’m very sorry to hear that. I really do try to be amusing.
    Cobble’s boss, Cobble: Well, it seems that you’ve failed in your efforts.
    Cobble: That’s very sad, I’ll endeavor to do better in the future, really I will.
    Cobble’s boss, Cobble: I’m sorry to tell you, we’re going to have to fire you.
    Cobble: But, but, but…
    Cobble’s boss, Cobble: Not ‘buts’, Cobble. You’re going to have to leave.
    Cobble: But I was just going to say, with all due respect, you can’t fire me, I pay your salary.
    Cobble’s boss, Cobble: Oh right, sorry about that, I forgot! Carry on!

    “God forbid I ever win the mega millions”

    Why do you say that, DH?

    Once chitchatting with my friend I told him that I would have so many things to sort out if I won the lottery, ie who would get what, hiring a lawyer to set up trusts for the children, setting up some kind of lending facility for a few neer-do-well relatives, old boyfriends, erstwhile friends, neighbors, etc. coming out of the woodwork…….

    He said he would give himself the biggerst goodbye party that anyone ever saw.
