Went to one of the riverboat casinos in New Orleans when they started popping up over the place in the mid-90's....hit the blackjack table (the cheapie ones) and won $500 bucks....
....of course I got greedy.....and gave it right back in a fraction of the time it took me to win it.... He was like a cock who thought the sun had risen to hear him crow.

I won $30 for catching the largest fish on a boat trip. My dad HATES New York so I took him to BFE Brooklyn and we went on a fishing trip on the Atlantic--you pay about $25 and they provide everything: poles, bait, etc. I was the only girl on the trip and a "no touch" because I wouldn't touch the bait or the fish. On the way back to Brooklyn they clean the fish right on the boat for you, so I tipped the guy $20 because I felt bad that there were all these serious anglers and I won.
My fave was when I went to Monte Carlo and won 100 francs in the slot machines. It was enough to pay for my train ticket back to Cannes, where I was studying. I won 3 Marilyn Monroe videos in conjunction with an Illinois lottery game. I just had to send in a postcard and answer 3 questions about her correctly. The check. The string he dropped. The Mona Lisa. The musical notes taken out of a hat. The glass. The toy shotgun painting. The things he found. Therefore, everything seen–every object, that is, plus the process of looking at it–is a Duchamp. | |

Looking forward to seeing you again! Had a quiet-ish weekend; just waiting for my fellow Prince mate to turn up so we can FAM out to a load of Prince goodies. Whilst my housemates at us. I hope everything is okay with you. | |
