I once drove 2 hours to a casino on a day off from work. Wandered around for like ten minutes then sat down at the Titanic (the James Cameron film) themed slot machine. Put in $5, spin and boom Heart of the Ocean, Celine Dion blaring My Heart Will Go On as my winnings kept rolling up. At the end it ended up being like $700.

My rent at the time was $500 so that was my rent covered that month. I just grabbed a burger and drove back home. I was probably in the casino for a total of 20 minutes.

In jr high, there was an essay contest at school for DARE (for those outside us: it was a really dumb drug prevention program taught in school by cops). You were supposed to write an essay about why drugs were bad and the winner got a mountain bike.

My classmate bragged he had his sister in high school help him write his so he could win (which we all thought so too). In a surprising fashion, I had actually won and got a cool yellow mountain bike while my classmate looked visibly pissed. Not sure who judged the essays or what the winning criteria was (if there was any), but thanks, ineffective school program!

WTF you got a mountain bike? I got a stuffed animal. :mad:
