A bunch of useless crap
Published on July 10, 2006 By MasonM In Misc
Tonight I was watching the show Treasure Hunters. During the program they ask a question related to a clue found by the contestants and you can go online and answer the question for a chance to win $10,000.

I went online and answered the question knowing for certain that I gave the correct answer. At the end of the show as they were building up to announce the winner I knew with 100% certainty that I had given the correct answer and that I had won the cash. For just that one moment in time I had won the $10,000.

Of course they announced a name other than my own and that was that. I had given the correct answer but someone else's name had been selected from the correct entries as the winner. Ah well, it was fun for that one moment in time.

Nothing like a good Maxwell Smart quote.

Well as a new millionaire myself...(see "I'm Rich")I will share the wealth! Soon as I get mine, you'll get yours!

I know I can have my whole fortune spent in my head before I even get notification. It stinks how it works that way. Maybe someday - as all lottery players say when they buy their ticket.

as I get mine, you'll get yours!

I already got mine - but it was not a check!
