Sitting on the front porch waving at the cars as they pass by, wondering where it is that everyone is headed for, hell it's not even noon yet, I know coz the mail truck hasn't come yet. Yeah waiting on the mail, drinking my coffee, reading the morning paper and waiting on the mail.
Man what a wonderful life, less I get some of them damn bills I can't pay, hell I keep tellin them folks the check is in the mail. They act like I'm lyin to em, hell when I get a check they' ll get a check.
Codgitatin on this when the mail truck comes, wave at Clem, hes our mailman, go and get the mail.
Lands o heaven theres a letter sez I won cash money, yep $100.00 in a check for that amount too. well I run to the house tear of this raggedy ole robe get my O U sweatshirt, run to the back yard and yell at ma to hurry on up we goin to town, to the bank to cash this here check. shes hard of hearing don't you know, so I have to go out by the chicken coop and say hey old lady pack it up we gotta go an cash this here check, and no we ain't stoppin in walmart on the way there neither.

I guess you might say that the moral of this story is, oh hell I don't know you tell me. Just leave little Bob here a comment and tell him what the hell the moral is.

I know , I know but it could've happened right??
LOL I've ALWAYS wanted to do that.
lol!!! The moral is "what a tangled web we weave when at first we try to deceive...." I guess you haven't gotten that far with the lesson. But since you read my car-wash story, you know I have!!
thanks for visiting me...I'll be catching up on your old posts later. Funny stuff!
Wow, I would like to do that too. Something good happened to me today, I opened a letter and received a check for about $3,300. I already deposited it in my account.
The wonders keep coming in o.o
Funny story. I visualized the whole 'thang'! The moral is "Don't let the big guys trick you!" and "Who cares about fine print!"
Thanks for the Follow and Comment. Your comment is temporarily lost....it fell in the black hole that happens in blogland sometimes. I expect it to reappear shortly! Strange but true!
Well Bob, I have just seen this, and thought lucky you getting a cheque (or check as you call it over there) in the post, over where we live, the bloody postman would have robbed it, and we would have been left with a blank envelope to enjoy!
Good on you for fighting for your money though!!
