    Expectations?

    Some on this site don't believe in luck. I do believe in luck. I just don't believe somebody can get by on luck alone for 4 or 5 years. (With the exception of my friend Schnītz who was born with a horseshoe up his :censoredsign: and has been milking it for the past 55 years.) This couple must be doing...
