Random Road Ramblings...(R3)

I was in starbucks recently when a amish gentleman came in to get coffee. I don't know why but I thought it funny.

2 saturdays ago FLOTUS and I were watching the ohio lottery's TV game show cash explosion. This old lady, I believe her name was Myrtle, won 50K. When asked what she was going to do with money, she said, "Do you really want to know...? I'm going to buy a new set of teeth!"

Last Saturday we were flipping through the channels and came across Cash Explosion again. This guy, I think his name was Hector, was playing in the game, when he smiled... NO LOWER TEETH! With his firstspin of the board he hit for 2300. We couldn't bear to watch any more so we don't know if he won the 50K, but let's hope he followed Myrtle's lead with the money he did win.

Heading to DC this morning while waiting to board my flight when a middle aged man sat down near me. Not next to me but about four seats over. He called his mother on his cell phone and after a few pleasentries, began complaining about his children, both of whom he claimed 'were raised in a good home, not abused, and provided with every opportunity', yet they seem to hate the family, him and just about everyone else. Also, he can't stand his wife who has some sort of chemical or other dependency. Then this topper - his children, both girls, seem to have a problem with 'keeping their zippers up"! All of this at 7:00a for all us at Gate 19 to hear.

And this one for the road: As were sitting on the tarmac waiting to push back from the gate, the dude behind me calls for the flight attendant. When she arrives he sarcastically asks if its possible to turn the heat down. She patiently tries to explain that the A/C will start working more effiecently once air bourne. He replys sarcastically with another question, "Can you shut the heat off? Or do you have a fan I could plug in or something?" To which the kind flight attended did not respond and went back to the important task of the pre-flight check.
