One Million Dollars

You have one million dollars
But cannot spend two thirds
Except on common collars
Would it be on priests, dogs or shirts?

  5. Lucci, the rules are already made. You have to work within them, like everybody else! :)

  7. Ha ha @ Lucci.

    Does this apply to any collard article of clothing? ie collard jackets and everything inbetween?

  8. You all can make those rules, Raine. If it has a collar or normally wears one, it qualifies for the two thirds.

  10. Fine! Between D****, my father n brother the 2/3 for shirts.

  11. I will also buy some priest collars to donate.

  12. Raine, that works. For after buying $750K worth of jackets, you will still have $250K to spend as you please.

  13. Then, Lucci, D****, your father and your brother are very lucky people. They will not be buying shirts for the rest of their lives!

    i could spend it on a priest but it wont come to mind at the first instance..

    Dogs...it depends on the kind but not a possibility...

    And shirts...not that either...

    i guess i wud just take a trip or give some of it out but not to a priest...

  17. Geez, all that money and just these three choices? I will go on hunger strike to protest... then I'd grudgingly buy a cute poodle...then the shirts(who needs that many shirts?)...Ok, then I will become a priest and use the rest for myself!

  18. Ok, Raine the 'bestialophobe'! Lol

  19. Cheating in smart way, Savvy, but still cheating. If you become a priest, then you get to spend almost all the 750 plus the 250 that's reserved for your follies and whims. That comes back to almost a cool 1 million!

  20. strictly shirts - for you and I - the Ishmaelite type.

    ReplyDelete
  21. You know, it, Kiz! But $750M for the shirts of Ish?

  22. dogs really freak me out! I scream when they try to get friendly! Even the itty-bitty ones make me uncomfortable!... I can't quite understans why yet but maybe I got chased by one as a kid?...lol

    ReplyDelete
  23. I am a bit scared of canines, myself, Maxine. You were probably chased by one, yes.

  24. I would probably try to use the money to bring Ghana out of its economic recession

    ReplyDelete
  25. Hmmm, Edward, if you say so. Let me get this right: you will spend only $250k on yourself and donate $750k to Darling Ghana. Nice. But, on another note, Ghana does not wear a collar! (Just teasing).

  26. this money i would give to the nuke scientists in Iran (not to Armadinejad! though i see the thin line) to make sure Hilary Clinton and Bush and all who think only the US has 'birth' right to have nuke is kept in check. nonsense is sweet!

    or to the many who are against any religious state as a seed money for a fund to uproot such nonsense like in Iran or Lybia!

    or i would just set up a fund (still) for the championing of the total uprooting of any leadership whose power is obtained by virtue of lineage and i mean the chieftian system! I would target the Queen of England first to soothe the myopia of any black man who would come telling me of being against 'tradition'!
