Willy and the Arkansas Lottery

Willy takes his chances about once a week on this Arkansas Lottery thing and sometimes the powerball. 

First Willy would like some accolades from some students in a few years because it is obvious that all Willy is doing is donating to someone's education.  It is absolute that Willy is not making any money at this thing.

Here is how it goes:
  • Willy buys a $3 scratch off 
  • Willy wins $3 with this ticket.
  • Willy goes back in and collects his $3
  • Willy re-invests this $3 into a new scratch off ticket
  • Willy also buys a Powerball for $2.
  • Willy makes nothing on the new Scratch off.
  • Willy wins nothing on the Powerball.
Willy tries again next week.

Problem with all of this.  Willy has looked at the numbers.  Willy has invested in the above transaction $5.

About 10% of that goes to the Scholarship fund - yes about 50 cents.  The rest is administrative costs and payouts.   Willy is not sure this is all right.

Willy plays again.

What Part of Merry Christmas don't they get?

Retailers are already instructing and using the words Happy Holidays!

Willy gets upset and the redneck comes out.  What part of "MERRY CHRISTMAS" do they not understand.  

Brings back a poem that has circulate but Willy believes we should get a start on Christmas by thinking of this........

Twas the month before Christmas
When all through our land,
Not a Christian was praying
Nor taking a stand.

See the PC Police had taken away,
The reason for Christmas - no one could say.
The children were told by their schools not to sing,
About Shepherds and Wise Men and Angels and things.

It might hurt people's feelings, the teachers would say
December 25th is just a 'Holiday'.
Yet the shoppers were ready with cash, checks and credit
Pushing folks down to the floor just to get it!

CDs from Madonna, an X-BOX, an I-pod
Something was changing, something quite odd!
Retailers promoted Ramadan and Kwanzaa
In hopes to sell books by Franken & Fonda.

As Targets were hanging their trees upside down
At Lowe's the word Christmas - was nowhere to be found.
At K-Mart and Staples and Penny's and Sears
You won't hear the word Christmas; it won't touch your ears.

Inclusive, sensitive, Di-ver-si-ty
Are words that were used to intimidate me.
Now Daschle, Now Darden, Now Sharpton, Wolf Blitzen
On Boxer, on Rather, on Kerry, on Clinton!

At the top of the Senate, there arose such a clatter
To eliminate Jesus, in all public matter.
And we spoke not a word, as they took away our faith
Forbidden to speak of salvation and grace.

The true Gift of Christmas was exchanged and discarded
The reason for the season, stopped before it started.
So as you celebrate 'Winter Break' under your 'Dream Tree'
Sipping your Starbucks, listen to me.

Choose your words carefully, choose what you say
Shout MERRY CHRISTMAS, not Happy Holiday!

Willy wants a Vacation Rental!

Willy is always anxious to look at and write about vacation rental property! Why is that you ask? Well, Willy will tell you why. The reason is that Willy lives and dies for the next time that Willy and Mrs Willy can go on a vacation.

Yes, Willy loves to go some where like Fort Lauderdale Florida for a vacation. If that is where Willy is going for  a vacation then the first thing Willy is going to do is start looking for great places to stay by searching on the internet.  One of the great places that Willy starts this search for vacation rental homes is Vacationrental.org.

If you want to try some other city in Florida simply click on the appropriate link such as Palm Beach Vacation Rentals .  Click on the city that you want and suddenly many options for great rentals opens in front of you.

So there you have it.  Willy has given you his secret for finding great vacation rentals in great places like Florida.  The only thing left to do is get on the internet and find your place to go and stay.

Wow, this makes Willy ready to go.  Do you reckon Willy can leave tomorrow.

You Might Be a Redneck...a different take




Willy has enjoyed the redneck jokes for years. Willy thinks it's time to take a reflective look at the core?beliefs of a culture that values home, family, country and God. 

If Willy had to stand before a dozen terrorists who threaten Willy's life, Willy would choose a half dozen or so rednecks to back Willy up. 

Tire irons, squirrel guns and grit -- that's what rednecks are made of. Willy believes he is one of those.




You might be a redneck if:  It never occurred to you to be offended by the phrase, 'One nation, under God.'


You might be a redneck if:
  You've never protested about seeing the 10 Commandments posted in public places.

You might be a redneck if:
  You still say ' Christmas' instead of 'Winter Festival.'

You might be a redneck if:
  You bow your head when someone prays.

You might be a redneck if:
  You stand and place your hand over your heart when they play the National Anthem.

You might be a redneck if:
  You treat our armed forces veterans with great respect, and always have.

You might be a redneck if:
  You've never burned an American flag, nor intend to.

You might be a redneck if:
  You know what you believe and you aren't afraid to say so, no matter who is listening.

You might be a redneck if:
  You respect your elders and raised your kids to do the same.

You might be a redneck if:
  You'd give your last dollar to a friend.


                                     God Bless the USA !



IF YOU DON'T STAND BEHIND OUR TROOPS FEEL FREE TO STAND IN FRONT OF THEM.
 
Keep the fire burning, redneck friend.
IN GOD WE TRUST

Willy revised this from email of same structure.

World Series - Economy - Willy

Willy is wondering if there is any correlation between the World Series Winner, the Economy and Willy?

If the Phillies won tonight does that mean that the Stock market will keep getting better and Willy will Prosper?

If the Yankees win tonight - the series is over.  Does that mean the Stock market will go down and Willy will not prosper.

Or does it all just mean that baseball is over and we just have football to watch for a while.

Willy Ponders these things.
