Ticket, Tumbling, Ticked off Lady and the Taco Bell Arena

Last weekend I won tickets to the first and second round of the NCAA Men's Basketball tournament. The games were played Friday and Sunday. The tickets were won in a contest of skill. The skill was "Mental Telepathy." This means that the names were drawn out of a box and I "willed" my name into the drawer's hand.

Pretty easy really:
  • Guy reaches into box -
  • I concentrate really hard with both eyes squinting and pointer finger on right temple -
  • Guy pulls name out of box -
  • Guy reads my name -
  • As I snatch the tickets from the guy's hand, I respond with, "yeah right, it's mental telepathy, whaddya think?" (ala-Napoleon Dynamite)
  • Presto! Tickets.
This telepathic talent works once in every 1,222,998 times I try it.
So: Kind of a talent.
Luckeeey!

This lady sat in front of me. I accidently sneezed on her (my bad).

Like I always say, if you can't sneeze into your hands, sneeze into some lady's hair.

Way Luckeeey!!
Way Talented!! I always knew you had it in you. You shouldn't hide that kind of talent... come share it with us in the room-a-day give-a-way!!

At least you did not leave visible slime in that ladies hair... or did you take the picture before you sneezed?
