Who WIll WIn?

Dear Gabby,

You seem to know alot about very many different subjects, and I value your wisdom.

I have a large sum of money resting on this SUper Bowl game on Sunday, and I thought before I make it Official,I would ask your opinion.

Who do you think will win the SUper Bowl game on Sunday and why?

Sincerely,

A gambling Football Fan in Vegas



Dear Gambling Fan,

First of all, I am not promoting gambling as It has been known to cause many problems in families and then counseling is needed and I'm already overloaded with patients, so I don't need the extra work. Really.

But I do believe that the team that will win this year's Super Bowl will be....

The team that scores the most points before the final clock runs out!

WHY?

Because that is the rule.

I hope this helped.

Not a Fat Boy Lover

Dear Gabby,

A friend has a husband who is old and doesn't have much money but has found a Harley Davidson Motorcycle (a "Fat Boy") that he has dreamed of owning all of his life.

He wants to purchase it, as he thinks it's a great bargain, but is coming to his wife (a WONDERFUL lady, I might add) not for her approval, but for her blessing before he purchases it.

She will not say NO, as that is not her place, but she can't give her blessing due to the financial strains it will place on their budget and also the dangerous aspects of an old man driving the bike of his dreams.


Can you help me, I mean her?

Signed,
Not a Fat Boy Lover




Dear Not a Fat Boy Lover,

You sound as though you are a very wise wife, I mean "friend", and are somewhat sensitive to your husband's, I mean friend's husbands dreams.

You make a couple of very good points though.

Would part of his dream include being late on payments and ruining your credit during these very difficult times our country is experiencing right now?

Would a part of his dream be spending time in the hospital repairing body parts that crazy drivers have damaged when they claim "he came out of no where!" ?


I would suggest that before your husband, I mean friend purchases it, he would write down a financial plan specifying the details of how he will pay for it, and what his second job will be if the economy stays the way it is, and times get even harder on everyone.

Oh, and make sure to "up" his insurance...medical and life BEFORE he purchases the motorcycle.

Funny, you sound very familiar....

Busting out at the seams!

Dear Gabby,

I need to know what to do.

None of my clothes fit anymore.

Each season when I remove my clothes from their storage bins, they do not fit- they are now a size too small!

I have no extra money to buy a new wardrobe, but I don't want to walk around in ill fitting clothes either.

What should I do?

Sincerely,
Busting out at the seams



Dear Busting,

Sue the Rubbermaid company!

Obviously there's a defect in their product causing your clothes to shrink.

I'm sure it would have nothing to do with possible weight gain or the need to exercise.

*Please let me know if this works, because I've been experiencing the same problem with their faulty products!

Gabby
