    Default Do you watch Big Brother on CBS?

    Come on, it's not unmanly to admit it. :mrgreen:

    Anyway if you get the chance you can watch it tonight and hear my name as the lucky bastard who won the $10,000 weekly prize! [calvin]

    I got a call on Friday morning at 9:39 am (thank God I can start work late if I want) and the caller ID said New York. My hobby is online sweepstakes, so my first thought was I hope I won something. She said I was the potential winner of the $10,000 prize, but CBS wants to announce this weeks winner on Sunday night so can I fax the affidavit by 3pm my time? Hell I think to myself, I'll hop a plane and hand it over in person by 3pm if you want!

    I call the wifey and tell her I won 10 grand and she says ya whatever, quit teasing. Then realizes, I'm crying (I'm manly enough to admit $10,000 makes me cry in happiness) so she believes me, and screams to her whole office we won $10,000. See how quickly she jumps from calling me a liar, to WE won.

    Anyway, she emails me the affidavit and tells me to call her right back if I don't get it. I get it, drive straight to the plant, and fill it out since my hands were shaking too bad to fill it out at home. Get it notarized, and fax it. All done within an hour. I call the lady in New York to make sure she received it, and she has. She said to listen to my name on Sunday, and within 3 weeks I should get a check.

    Still shocked I was that lucky and won't believe it 100% until I hear my name tonight!

    Congrats on your win, that's way cool!

    My wife watches it religiously; it makes me want to upchuck. I can't stand it.

    Besides, we all know Rockstar:Supernova is the bestest reality show right now. Right???? :mrgreen:

    Congrats.
    I wouldn't be 100% sure, until I had greenbacks IN HAND.

    All I ever get from T.V. is a big cable bill.

    You are correct sir! Luckily on the list of things she's made is a big screen t.v. I've wanted for years. A new king sized bed, and a dishwasher. The rest for bills, but I really do like the 50 BMG idea. :mrgreen:

    And yep I watch the Rockstar Supernova show, and especially that singer Storm. She has some really nice pictures on the web you can goggle. [poke]

    I also wonder how much a silencer for my new ak47 would cost... [roll]

    Here's what they had on the screen for a whopping 2 seconds. [roll] I don't care, it was long enough to have the proof, so I finally believe 100% I was that lucky!
