classic red meat
Jarid Del Deo sent this comic along the postal route back in the 1900′s.
Here’s something for you Lyle, must have been in the early 90′s when you were at UNH. Your money making idea was good enough for me to write it down.
“Lyle says he will play the Wheel of Fortune telephone game for his summer job. And just like any good business he will lose money at first until he gets the hang of how it all works. From then on, it will be smooth sailing as he wins one hundred dollars every five minutes, paying only an average five dollars for each chance to play. He will earn about $1,080 dollars an hour, sans lunch break. great plan.”
What’s up with my math? I guess I meant $1,080 a day, not an hour…Did that ever work out?
As is the case with much of that time period, this plan escapes my memory. Sounds reasonable though. I don’t even remember the Wheel of Fortune phone game.
What would really frustrate me is if I forgot that I actually did this and it worked. I might have thousands of dollars just laying around somewhere! Or maybe that’s where I got the money for my solid gold scrotum. I can’t remember where that came from, either.
