Guess what is today? Guest Posting Friday! And as usual I have another guest author all dressed up to entertain the hell out of you. So please welcome Tim Torkildson, who will be remembered as the first person to submit a poem for Spyglassviewer. Woo hoo! Continue Tim…
If I Won the Lottery
Scratching off a winning ticket from the lottery,
Hasn’t changed a single thing about poor little me.
I still take the bus to work, my lunch is in a sack,
I just send my kids to school inside a Cadillac.
I’m paying off the debts of friends and fam’ly, by the way,
Pulling up the kitchen floor to put in some parquet.
I’m a simple person and a sudden windfall means,
Less to me than onion peel or any hill of beans.
Sure I bought a diamond ring and bracelets made of gold,
And that leather jacket to protect me from the cold.
But otherwise I haven’t changed, my needs are very basic,
I’m getting liposuction and then going in for Lasik.
Of course, our house is very small; I do not like to cramp it,
I wonder can I move into that place owned by Jed Clampett?

Quite frank and reasonable list of desires. I once asked my pal what if he won the 500,000 bucks from the lottery that he purchased, he said he would purchase 1000 more of them.
That has happened you know. Some guy won a million dollars lottery and invested it on lottery tickets to win 75 million dollars. I think his name is Joe Denette.
I guess people in your home won’t need google.
Nah, there was a guest post earlier on this very topic. Just have good memory.
