Integrity is doing the right thing, even when nobody is looking.

Nice rifle! Congrats!


"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."
-- Justice Janice Rogers Brown

Very cool. Never won a raffle in my life.


One time I did win something, 4 tickets to a rodeo downtown. But not sure if it counts because the reason I won is because nobody signed up for and it was time for the drawing, and the group of 3 of us were the only ones there eating at the time.
So in my case it was "Hey, ya'll wanna go to the rodeo tomorrow?"

Closest I ever came to winning a paid raffle was a friend of mine winning the 50/50 ticket draw they do at a lot of dirt tracks on Saturday nights. Half the money goes to the driver points fund and the other goes to the lucky 'winner'. The winning amount? Was about $14, it was a small dirt track about 40 minutes outside of Birmingham and there were only about 100 people in the stands.
