I was let out for good behavior and excellent nursing skills for a an hour on Saturday and decided to join my buds for lunch after their round of golf. When I walked in the Grill I was greeted with "Slap Shot won the SOTD". No hello, how are you, but where's the money, and how much did he win? The answer to both questions was: safe and $111.00. Actually I should have said in my safe. I tend to be a little more security minded when we get over a $100.00. Plus I've heard we're having a rash of burglaries in the hood right now. I was reluctant to accept his winning since the proper documentation hadn't been prepared. But after receiving assurance from several people and the barkeep I decided it was a legit win.
When I got home I called Slap Shot and got the Mrs. After explaining the reason for my call she exclaimed she knew nothing about his great fortune, but with an upcoming wedding knew she could put the money to good use. He stopped over later (with the Mrs. acting as an armed guard) and picked a stack of $1 dollar bills. Their facial expressions were classic - one big smile and one big frown. I'll leave it to you to decide who had which.
The rest of you shouldn't fret. We still have $139.00 in the pot.
