    Default Lucky people

    Do you know any people who are just plain lucky?
    Going thru past winners I noticed one 3 time winner, two 2 time winners, and two people I know from my own fly club.
    The last winner posted was Jan 2010

    I'm still hoping to join that list of "lucky winners".

    I won the first draft lottery in 1969. Does that count?

    How did that pay off Jim? When I graduated in '68 we were all winners.

    I figure I'll win something when Ol' Satch is doing figure 8s on ice skates in hades.
    I'm either going to, coming from or thinking about fishing. Jim

    I'm one of those two time winners & I guess I can be considered lucky, but I also have been known to occasionally give stuff away, so maybe it's a little "what goes around, comes around".
    My wish is that each & every one of the contributing members of FAOL get to experience the joy of winning the drawing at least once....Good luck to all!!!

    Default Hmmmmmmmm

    3 time winner, couple of two time winners.....now that is some very high odds!
    When you can arrange your affairs to go fishing, forget all the signs, homilies, advice and folklore. JUST GO.

    I'm not so sure luck had anything to do with it.
