If I win big, I'm not going shopping for a house. I'm going shopping for an architect.

I remember [vaguely!] a documentary about lotto winners. most ends up bankrupt after a few years.
They buy the big house, they buy the fancy car, they take the vacations, etc..
They neglect to take into account:
They basically 'buy' the lavish lifestyle, and forget that they don't really have the income to maintain said [new] lifestyle..

They neglect to take into account:
- the increased property taxes & other maintenance costs and insurance
- the car maintenance & higher fuel costs (premium fuels) and insurance
- that 1st class tickets add up quickly
- etc..

Our kid's school needs to spell check. I just received an email regarding "Parent Stupid Teacher" interviews.
But then again, maybe that was just for us...

For Sale. Was running when parked.
Well, 2022 so far looks a lot like this…
In Ireland, the 99-year-old Mother Superior lay quietly.
She was dying.
The Nuns had gathered around her bed, laying garlands around her and
trying to make her last journey comfortable.
They wanted to give her warm milk to drink but she declined. One of
the nuns took the glass back to the kitchen.
Then, remembering a bottle of Irish Whiskey that had been received
as a gift the previous Christmas, she opened it and poured a
generous amount into the warm milk.
Back at Mother Superior's bed, they lifted her head gently and held
the glass to her lips. The very frail Nun drank a little, then a
little more and before they knew it, she had finished the whole
glass down to the last drop.
As her eyes brightened, the nuns thought it would be a good
opportunity to have one last talk with their spiritual leader.
"Mother," the nuns asked earnestly, "Please give us some of your
wisdom before you leave us". She raised herself up very slowly in
the bed on one elbow, looked at them and said:
"DON'T SELL THAT COW."

A man absolutely hated his wife's cat and decided to get rid of him one day by driving him 20 blocks from his home and leaving him at the park. As he was getting home, the cat was walking up the driveway. The next day he decided to drive the cat 40 blocks away. He put the beast out and headed home. Driving back up his driveway, there was the cat! He kept taking the cat further and further and the cat would always beat him home.
At last, he decided to drive a few miles away, turn right, then left, past the bridge, then right again, and another right until he reached what he thought was a safe distance from his home and left the cat there. Hours later the man calls home to his wife:
"Jen, is the cat there?" "Yes", the wife answers, "why do you ask?"
Frustrated, the man answered,
"Put that son of a bitch on the phone, I'm lost and need directions!"

A middle-aged wildlife photographer is on location in Africa with his young assistant.
As the day progresses he notices they are being stalked by a pride of lions. He tells his assistant.
"Oh crap" says the younger man and reaches into his backpack for a pair of running shoes.
The older man laughs.
"You don't seriously expect to outrun the lions"?
"Of course not, but I expect to outrun you"

Silly, that's not a pepper grinder, it's a potato masher
Something like this actually happened to me, and yes, my final password that was accepted was derogatory about the company whose account I was trying to sign into.
