We had another summer bingo session last night at the club house and were treated with free popcorn. Attendance is low but we have some loyal bingo players who turn out for the fun and chance to chat. Summer sessions are about the only time a person can get lucky enough to bingo several times in one night. The regular game payout is a whopping $3 but the final blackout means big bucks….at least $23 last night. And guess who won AGAIN…….Larry Burke. That’s twice in a row he won the big jackpot. Now that he’s so rich, we always know where we can stop in for a loan, right Larry??
TIDBITS:
1. Isn’t it a nuisance when you want to unroll some saran wrap or aluminum foil and the whole roll falls out of the box? Did you know that on the ends of almost all rolled cartons, there is a spot to push in or indent that will hold that roll in place for you? Check it out for yourself. The first time I heard that from someone, I didn’t believe it till I walked over to the cupboard and saw it for myself. After all these years, there’s still something new to learn.
2. During historic civil wars, when troops returned without any casualties, a writing was put up so all can see which read “0 Killed”. From here we get the expression “OK” which means all is well.
3. Here’s your computer tip for the day: Instead of using the mouse to get up to the address bar, just hit ALT D. That jumps up to the address bar and highlights the current address. All you have to do is start typing the new address you want to use. …. And remember that “Windows D” takes you to your desktop.
