Hello everyone....well there is not much to update on...life is exciting as always...work is okay, kind of boring...oh by the way I am prepping, staining and clear-coating windows in a warehouse for work right now, in case some of you didn't know. I work 10 hours a day, when there are things to do, but it is poorly organized so sometimes our shipment of windows doesn't come in so we get a short day, which is nice, except for when pay day comes.

Anyways the last couple days have been full of almost winnings...let me explain...

On Thursday I was working with a guy named Duane, and we were listening to the radio, and there was a question that needed answering, so we got on the phone...after a while of trying his phone started ringing, as did mine, which means we were getting through. He must have phoned a second before me and went live on the air. While he was on, since I knew the answer and he didn't, I told him the answer to say, and he did, and won a 50 gift card to a restaurant and three don cherry gift mugs. I was a little choked at myself for giving him the answer, since I was probably the next one to go on air. So that was thursday.
Friday, I had another chance. The question was asked, Duane told me the answer, and I phoned in right away...I didn't go on live but rather told the voice on the other end my answer and he told me to hold. As I was holding someone else went on air, said the same answer as me and got it right....again I was probably the next in line to go on....burned two days in a row...

Thursday night, I was at the new Canadian tire in Westbank, and they came after me to sign up for a credit card...as they had a wheel you could spend and get cash (up to 20 bucks) I had a mental lapse and agreed...As I was going up to the wheel (which had about 50 or 6o slots, 1 of which had 20 bucks on it) I gave er a spin. After the wheel went around 5 or 6 times it came to a rest on the 20 dollar slot..."Booyah" I said, until the lady handed me a certificate for 2o bucks, which I have to use with the Credit Card I might get, and I have to use it by the end of december....I was choked because I felt they had lied to me...but anyways, once again it was confirmed for me not to ever...EVER...sign up for stupid things....

Anyways those are my thoughts today...hope all is well is la la land,
Jer

Word on the street is that peek-a-boo comments are the bomb. Also that JerThom has learned the same lesson as Matt Reimer.
