There I was among the flashings lights, free drinks and glamour..

the slot machine I was playing would hit three "7"s but would only pay out in a single coin......

I was getting frustrated....this was my 5th or 6th jackpot and all I would get was a lousy coin...

as I stood up from the chair to find someone to help me cash
out my winnings I heard this noise that sounded someone moving a pile of coins back and forth...


Clink clink clink............PING.........another coin from the slot machine!!!!

Sure enough, as I emerged from my dream I could tell it was the
cat who had to play desk hockey with the pile of change left on top....

With dexterity far beyond a pro hockey player, Ed was batting coins, left, right, left and shooting them to the floor....

on top of his glass food dish...which sounds like the cup on a
vegas one armed bandit.....

a bit of a disappointment- really a HUGE disappointment- because I was ready to raise a stink about all the money that was owed to me by the casino...

Now I have to convince the cat that I really was winning.....

and wait for him to pay me.....
