You gotta be in it, to win it.

One night, I overheard Mom and Pop arguing over the lottery drawing. It went like this:

Dad: Lemme write down the numbers quick!
Mom: Oooh, Harry! Get a pen!
Announcer on TV: Tonight's winning lotto numbers are 11...
Mom: 11. Did you get that?
Dad: Yeah, shh...
Announcer: 19...
Mom: 19.
Dad: Shh!
Announcer: 25...
Mom: 25.
Dad: Jesus, Jo! Would ya be quiet? I'm trying to write down the numbers!
Mom: I'm helping!
Dad: You're not helping! I can hardly hear what the woman on TV is saying!
Mom: Oh, fine. [beat] Didja get 'em all?
Dad: Yeaaaaaahhhhh
