Have you heard of
Joan Ginther? Just happens to be the
luckiest gal in the world...so it would seem...a retired college prof, about my age, who plays the scratch it
lotto tix in Texas...
AND WINS...not just once, but
3 times! And if that is not enough, actually won again on a ping pong draw...she has garnered a mere
$21 million for her good fortune...
coincidence? The odds are off the board for this happening, as she has got the 3 winning tix at the same spot in Bishop, Texas...and not surprisingly, she has bolted for Vegas, where she is demanding her privacy...and is residing in a penthouse there...this book is not closed...
Oh the joys of another type of win...this be the
National League breaking a
13 game losing streak to the American League last night at the MLB All Star Game...a typical
Padres win, great pitching and a timely hit at the end...the benefit? The winner gets the home field advantage in the World Series...bogus rule if there was ever one...nice showing by both the
Pads,
AGonzo and HBell...
Speaking of winners, the interview of
Lefty over in England was
brilliant...he handles himself with such class and confidence...of course, he carries no excess baggage like some other fellow does...but his humor and good will just spills over to the crowd...I can see why the general public loves him...
good luck in the British Open...
Another winner, I'm heading out to
Miramar to hit the
links...
