Many people like to play games of chance – a friend is heading for Vegas soon and will likely contribute to their school district. That’s what I did when I visited several years ago.
I take chances on things all the time – will I make it through the intersection before the light turns red? Will my ticket win if I enter the latest raffle this or that organization is holding? We all do that type thing.

Today – still catching up – the letter is B.
How perfect is that? My given name is NOT PurpleMoose (really?) but Barbara. I was named for my mother’s youngest sister who is only about 18 years older than I am. Aunt Barbie is my last living tie to my Mom, although we are thousands of miles away from each other. This moosie lives in Alaska’s “wilds” and she lives in the farthest wilds of Texas.
Heh – two Barbaras in the two largest states. (both MY state and I are bigger – lol)
Barbara seems to be a dying name. Most of the ones I have met are in my generational age – anywhere from 80’s to 60’s – although I have met a few in their 30s.
