Good morning crew,
Do you believe in serendipity? Get this story...
Last week I took a couple of leather coats in to have the
zippers and linings repaired. I gave them a partial payment
of $35 dollars at the time.
When I picked them up last night the woman charged me another
$35, but since I have been broke the last few days I wrote
her a check, knowing the money will be directly deposited
in my account soon on payday.
But when I looked at the stub I noticed the charge should
have been $65, not seventy. So instead of having to tear up
the check and write a new one she just gave me a five dollar
bill back.
So there I was with a lonely five dollar bill in my pocket.
What was I going to do, save it? Not likely. So I bought one
instant lottery ticket. An instant that just happened to be
worth a hundred bucks! Ka-ching!
Just think, if she hadn't over charged me I never would have
bought that ticket.
Laugh it up,
Joe

Our 25-year-old son moved back home with an eye toward
socking away money to buy a condo. We never bothered asking
how long he'd planned to stay, but I got a pretty good idea
when I walked into his room recently. In the corner was a
milk jug with a few coins in it and a label that read "Condo
down payment."

When my coworker Donsa was promoted, we decided to celebrate.
Her boss called the baker and ordered a cake.
"Two questions," said the baker. "Is Donsa a man or a woman?
And what do you want the cake to say?"
"The cake should read 'Congratulations'" the boss said. "Oh,
and Donsa's a woman." The next day, the office celebrated
with a cake that read "Congratulations?Donsa's a woman."
