Legal & illegal

Look what Mercedes had for me! Thank you, I believe it is legal and highly recommended to pass this kind of blogger award around. I pass it to everyone on my blogroll, cause I can honestly say, if you weren't kind, I would not have put you over there in the list. So go ahead, grab the award (run like the wind) and post it as proudly as I am.



It is a different story for the illegal off season shell game.

Would be interesting to know what's going on at this game. What's a Shell game? And why are there Seasons for it?
Cheers, Klaus

Congratulations! You are so welcome! I am guessing the shell game is moving the three shells around with a prize under one of them?

Klaus ~ Down at the Jersey shore, we have two seasons; “in season” would be July 4th week through Labor Day weekend. This is when our roadways become clogged arteries and our beaches swam with the out of towners or “bennies” as we like to call them. “Off season” would be anytime after Labor Day but before July 4th.

During the month of May, as the temperatures begin to rise, the shops and restaurants reopen, the traffic lights are turned back on, the gears on the amusement rides are oiled, and a trickle of bennies begins. This would be the perfect time (since the police presents is limited) for the “shell game”. A little game of trickery were the bennies (especially the teenage boy variety) will end up losing a $20 or two.
