To Kill an American
You probably missed it in the rush of news last week, but there was actually a report that someone in
So an Australian dentist wrote an editorial the following day to let everyone know what an American is. So they would know when they found one. (Good one, mate!!!!)
"An American is English, or French, or Italian, Irish, German, Spanish, Polish, Russian or Greek. An American may also be Canadian, Mexican, African, Indian, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Australian, Iranian, Asian, or Arab, or Pakistani or Afghan.
An American may also be a Comanche, Cherokee, Osage, Blackfoot, Navaho, Apache, Seminole or one of the many other tribes known as Native Americans.
An American is Christian, or he could be Jewish, or Buddhist, or Muslim. In fact, there are more Muslims in
An American is also free to believe in no religion. For that he will answer only to God, not to the government, or to armed thugs claiming to speak for the government and for God.
An American lives in the most prosperous land in the history of the world. The root of that prosperity can be found in the Declaration of
An American is generous. Americans have helped out just about every other nation in the world in their time of need, never asking a thing in return.

We won $2.00 twice, because on the same ticket we had the Mega Ball 43. And the Megaplier was 4, so we ended up with $16.00. This was on 2nd drawing. We won nothing on the 1st drawing.
Now I didn’t spend our $16.00 because, well I was depressed. I always get depress after someone wins this Jack Pot, and we get $16.00.
So I will hang on to our winnings for the Jack Pot to get bigger, maybe I will hang on to all of winnings and extend this game.
