just one question you have to ask yourself (punk)
"how's that superstition been workin' for ya lately"?
huh? go ahead, ask yourself. Oh don't tell me you
don't have one. We all have this horseshit planted in
our cabezas. Here's mine: "i'm gonna win the fuckin
lottery for sure". sure ya are Chris, anyday now too huh?
LOL! how many years have you been at it pal? try 34 years.
{of course you have to do this with an Ed Norton voice}
### - i have one too, sorta :)
which goes back to being a kid and always being kinda lucky when it came
to finding things, money particularly heh...
e.g., one time my dad took me to the cinema age 10 or 11 maybe, can't even remember what movie it was now but at one point i was fidgeting about in
my seat and happened to notice something under my chair, checked it out,
some kinda plastic packet, which when i examined it more clearly showed
the corner of a £1 note! we were poor people so when i showed it to my dad
only 5 minutes later we were outside walking home with the money! (laffing)
there was £12 in all in this plastic envelope, a weeks wages 50 years ago!
no honesty in our house lol, we kept it! i made a fuss and was allowed to
keep £1 of it and felt rich considering i normally only gots 6 pence a
week pocket money! (that's 2.5p by today's reckoning folks; 5 cents a week tops! lol)
and other times too, as a young kid would often go for long walks all over
the place just looking around, never had any money so would occasionally
tell myself: am gonna find some money today! and often would! lol i was
good at finding things! at least that was my belief :)
and so here it comes, my irrational belief if you like, my superstition
heh...
i.e., i just know (don't ask me how lol) that if i went prospecting for
gold in say australia with one of those fancy metal detectors, that i'd
find it alright haha, how much i couldn't say but i sho' feels lucky,
punk! :)))
i just 'know' i'd likely find the lump everyone's been lookin' for?
daft isn't it heh, and totally irrational, but i'd find it alright!
i'd be somehow drawn to it? or it to me whatever heh, but i'd find it :)
thought about trying it here as gold deposits are actually everywhere,
even in buried roman hoards here in the uk but, unfortunately, a decent detector costs around 5-grand in any currency so have never gotten around
to it, and is now a bucket-list item i guess...
(shame that thang turned out to be such a cunt huh, 'coz can imagine he &
i having quite a lot of fun lookin' for gold down there in oz, he could
hire the diggin' shit and i'd put us right on the money...)
there's just something about gold innit heh :)
