I just got my mail today, and a letter from Bielefeld Boomsma Pittsinger LLP (Toronto, ON, Canada; informed me that an unknown (to me) relative died leaving behind a POD certificate worth $10.95 million U.S. dollars. No one has claimed the money yet, so he is offering it to me. What luck! When I receive the money, I will share my newfound wealth with many of you, limited to $5K each (you can buy a nice Rick). Stay tuned! |

Just so you're aware, all our grandmas need an operation. You know...for planning and all that. Let me know if they require a filing fee. I'll cover it  |

Some geezers have all the luck. I’m only 65 so way too young to qualify. I’ll start playing the lottos in ten years when I’m old enough to win something.

Welcome to the Moe's Tavern 2.0 Opulence Club! Don't do like I did. I blew every penny of my class action law suit settlement check on a new package of fishing hooks.  |

I’ve already forgotten what I blew my opulence on. I’m pretty sure it was something fancy.

I'm mulling over finish options and exotic wood choices for my custom, "boo-teak" order and will get back to you as soon as I've decided...

Some guys have all the luck. Don't you fret any, friend. I haven't forgotten where I come from! And, that's exactly why I don't look down my nose at the peasants. |

The 30 oldest registered members, or the 30 oldest active posters? I don't stand a chance for the first, but I might squeeze by in the second.

Yeah, that would be me. Intoxicated I fell off a 6 story building in the mid 70, broke my neck in an intoxicated car crash in the late 70s. Fell off a roof of a Baptist Church, working as a carpenter in the late 80s, broke my back in that one, that led to a job in Biomedical Engineering, got sober in 1994. Retired in 2012 after 30 years at the Hospital. Moved up to the Farm House within days of retirement. We paid cash for the farm, our other two homes are paid off, they’re located in south Florida 24 miles from Key Largo, Mom passed in 2015 this property is owned by my three sibling and me.
The whole time I worked at the Hospital I had direct payments made to a
Teacher’s Group Annuity, locked in at 4% Not bad for a kid that barely graduated with 1.8 GPA from High school, and never graduated from the University of Pittsburgh. In the 7 days of testing that lead up to the Bio-Med gig I learned that the problem that made me who I am is based on what actually could be considered a gift. They tagged my IQ at 143. I looked it up a few years ago. I should have been tested back in elementry school. 009, you can skip me in the lottery, I really appreciate your gesture but I’m doing OK. and besides, I’m only 70 “o) if I did win it would go to a Veterans association.

I'm too young. I've had a few of those unknown relatives. I payed my fees, still waiting on the paperwork, but when that's done, I'll be right there at the country club with you!!! Oh, look, there's one more fee for some more paperwork....off to the checkbook.....

I’m not really a fan of Rics but will agree that they are nice to look at. …and I already have more guitars than I need. Would it be possible for you to join a forum that discusses small boats with outboard motors and make the same offer so you could send me a new 25hp 4-stroke (non-tiller) outboard motor?

I stopped by a GC for some picks and looked through their used section. They had a PRS gibby les-paul copy. It was magic. I didn't have the 450 they wanted on me and didn't want to put it on a card. Came back a day later and it was gone. This was two months ago and I am still kicking myself. I hope the person who bought it uses it. |
