    It is so painful to see your "Holy Grail", birth year and everything, and to realize how very, very far away it is.

    An honest blonde woman named Brandi finds herself in dire straights. Her hair salon has gone bust and she's in serious financial trouble. She's so desperate that she decides to ask God for help.

    She begins to pray... "God, please help me. I've lost my business and if I don't get some money, I'm going to lose my house as well. Please let me win the Powerball."

    Lottery night comes and somebody else wins millions. Brandi again prays..."God, please let me win the Pick 6! I've lost my business, my house and I'm going to lose my car as well."

    The drawing night passes with Brandi still having no luck. Once again, she prays... "God, why have you forsaken me?? I've lost my business, my house, and my car. My children are starving. I don't often ask you for help and I have always been a good servant to you. PLEASE just let me win the lotto this one time so I can get my life back in order."

    Suddenly there is a blinding flash of light as the heavens open and Brandi is confronted by the voice of God Himself... "Brandi, you have to buy a ticket."

    I tell my kids........."To be a winner every time, take that lottery money and save it, Einstein once said that the most powerful force in the universe is compounded interest!"


    It takes so damn long, though.

    Nice "Yin-Yang Base Clef" dial, but the hands are too short.

    2500 for just a dial? That belongs in the "totally looney" thread!

    Somebody needs their "meds" adjusted!!!

    You do realize that when you make extravagant offers over the value of the watch the seller may be fearful that you can not come up with that kind of money

    Would a military force use a dressy face like that? Looks a bit swanky for the cockpit of a '44 SAAB
