i only play 2 times a month (for one buck a piece) but i see ghetto people every day in my bodega who play like hundreds of tickets. every.day. where the hell are they getting their money from? i mean i guess maybe they just spend it all on lottery, but it’s kinda creepy, which makes me realize how much of a sucker’s game it is. and then i lol when i see the occasional moonface buy a ticket. not sure why it makes me laugh, but it does.
“are those machines reliable? should one actually check the numbers themself? also what a horrible thing to read. :(”
i always double check the numbers manually – i just don’t trust those things
also: there was a story (on gothamist, i think) a month or so ago about how bodega employees would steal winning tickets from people who scanned their ticket in the machine and had winners.
Serious question #2:
Where can I pick up a big box of those Duraflame logs?
Running low and need to stock up.
I used to use real firewood, which I prefer, but I believe it gives off more bad chemicals and doesn’t burn as well.
well that’s depressing DH.

Serious question:
What types of gifts do all of you get for your parents? Mine are both 80 and this is getting to be difficult.
Harry and David Pears
White Flower farm flowering something or other?
“That grab bag will be the first non-human to win GOTD!”
Is that true? [Scanning the archives to see if jackal ever won GOTD.]
You are the sweetest, Snaps. But innocent? Me thinks not!! ; )

Me? Innocent and sweet? Ha! If you think that, I’d like you to talk to Momma Snappy. She’d be pleased to hear such lies 🙂

I’ll shove some down my pants for safe keeping.
