How Many Tickets Do you Want?


The Ho & I did such a great job last year on the basket of cheer for St. Patty's Day at the VFW, that we were called upon this year to outdo ourselves. What you see is the result. We went with a pot o' gold theme. The array of goodies is in an ice tub from the local party store and on the gold base we put irish whiskey, Bailey's and a 6 pack of Guinness along with a ceramic beer mug and foil covered cocolate coins. I think this baby is going to generate big bucks!
On the motel front, it's been one of those weeks. In #9 the 220 line fried, putting the ac/heater out of commission. #3 leaned on the bathroom sink & it came away from the wall and he somehow overloaded the electric effectively blackening out both his room and #1. The repairman fixed #9, Dan spent 2 days replumbing and replacing the sink in #3 and the issue with the electric in #3 and #1 is temporarily ok, but need some serious looking into by a real electrician. Hopefully, he'll get here tomorrow.
The guy staying in #3 was asked to leave his previous motel, I don't know why, but I have my suspicions. Since he's been here, he broke the coffee serving table in our lobby, the sink in his room, and screwed up the electric in his room. I don't think he does these things on purpose, but we're feeling he's got a major rain cloud over his head. Just like that character in the old Lil Abner comic strip. What was his name?
