A blonde finds herself in serious trouble. Her business has gone bust and she's in dire financial straits. She's so desperate that she decides to ask God for help.

She begins to pray..."God, please help me. I've lost my business and if I don't get some money, I'm going to lose my house as well. Please let me win the Lotto."

Lotto night comes, and somebody else wins it.

She again prays..."God, please let me win the Lotto! I've lost my business, my house and I'm going to lose my car as well."

Lotto night comes and she still has no luck.

Once again, she prays. "My God, why have You forsaken me? I've lost my business, my house, and my car, children are starving. I don't often ask You for help, and I have always been a good servant to You.

PLEASE let me win the Lotto just this one time so I
can get my life back in order."

Suddenly there is a blinding flash of light as the heavens open. The blonde is overwhelmed by the Voice of God Himself...

GOD says to her, "Sweetheart, work with ME on this one. Buy a ticket."

Okay. This explains ME.

Now where does JellyBling fit into the equation?

I never had to take the Kobayashi Maru test until now. What do you think of my solution?

O'hana means family, and family means nobody gets left behind or forgotten.

A blonde sits in the airplane and wants to get some sleep.
But the passenger next to her wants to make conversation and he suggests to play a game.
"It's really simple. I ask you a question. If you know the answer, I'll give you a 1000$. If you don't, you give me 5$."

The blonde really wants to sleep and relunctantly agrees to go along with the game.
"Ok, I'll start," the guy says, not very gentleman-like, "what is the distance from the earth to the moon?"
The blonde shrugs her shoulders and gives him 5$.

"Hey - we're on a roll !" the guys says, "now you ask me a question. If I know the answer, you give me 5$. If I don't, I give you a 1000$."
"It walks on four legs in the morning, it walks on three legs at noon, and it walks on five legs in the evening - what is it?" the blonde asks.

The guy starts Googling on his laptop, posts the question on MB <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />, contacts his co-workers and friends etc... but can't find it.
After half an hour he wakes the blonde who managed to doze off meanwhile.

"Here's a 1000$," the guys says, "I don't know the answer. Now tell me - what is it?"
"I don't know", the blonde says, giving him 5$ and going back to sleep.
