Bad Bob's "Advice for Monday"

Post by RAM »

Never bet with a man who says he can do something that sounds impossible.
Had a friend once who could touch his eyebrow with the tip of his nose (required use of his hands). No telling how much money he made on bets!

Now be careful with the Geezer guys! I have been told he can put his right foot behind his head and, while standing tip toe on the left foot, can cast a 3/8 ounce casting wt. into a bucket 100 feet away. Watch your billfold! Do not be suckered into that bet!

Isn't that the advice that Skye Masterson's father gave him in Runyon's Guys & Dolls?

Both of those things sound like events observed by G.I.s in some bar on Okinawa.

I observed (unfortunately) the nose-to-tip-of-eyebrow thing. Hope to be spared watching the Geeze do the foot-behind-the-head and tiptoe routine. Have any of you guys seen him do this? I bet its a hoax (like dust mites and North Dakota) Bad Bob
