Brian invests in America; Lotto, Ebay, Flags, Eagles, Sunglasses and Trucks

My little scratch off hobby has grown into a full blown addiction. I know this because everyday after - and sometimes before - lunch I go to 7-11 and play the instant game. Any winnings get immediately re-invested. That might not make me an addict, but I'm pretty sure anytime your using the ATM in the 7-11 to get out cash for lotto tickets it means your on the edge. Your overboard when you start playing the 20$ ticket. I'm overboard. This is what the drawer in my cubicle looks like.
Underneath the 60$ of lotto tickets, Pop Rocks, take-out menu's and Ramen are some 5.25 inch floppy's labeled "1985". But today I won 25$. It was on a 20$ ticket mind you, so I only really won 5$. But when she handed me 25$ it felt like 25$. So I decided to keep the cash and blow it all on eBay.

I got the polarized Oakley Fives 2.0 that I wanted. I Then decided that I needed some more Americana. So I bought some American flags. I already have an amazing 10 foot Stars and Bars, that is in my room right now. So it was time for the novelty flags. I choose these two.

and
The question lingering is which one I should put up in my cubicle. It's too bad I only have room for one. I'm thinking truck. Then I can wear the eagle flag as a cape.

These two babies should be here before the 4th. Unfortunately I won't be able to fly them on the 4th, because I'll be doing something much more American. I will be traveling one tenth of the way across America in a bus.
