a sew for dinnner?
I love bets. I love betting. Not on horses, or on our men in white - but on simple, sometimes silly things... obscure bits of trivia and feats and dares that'd never make it onto Australian TV shows.
A kindly room mate in college, who was at the recieving (and often paying) end of these bets, invented something we called "notional Cokes". We printed a poster with lots of tiny Coca Cola bottles, and he'd buy me a real Coke for every five "notional Cokes" I won. I think that lasted about two months - before he stopped betting.
Won a trivial bet over the weekend - over how sew is pronounced. Unfortunately - for my friend - sew has more in common with sow than with few or even dew - but the payoff is dinner at Fusion 9! It's going to be a few weeks before I'll be able to collect... I'm off to the Emerald city - also known as Latte Land. It's home to Boeing, Microsoft, Amazon, and even better, Starbucks!
