Jinx! Buy me a Coke!

Sean says...

So I think I am jinxed!  Lately, everytime I have put my cheerleading pom poms behind someone, some thing, or some team they turn out to be a losing proposition! I think I will label it the Curse of Stuart. Stuart was someone I hired in January. He quit after 2 days even after taking him out for Asian food as a team bonding exercise and welcome! LOL!! It was weird but I know it wasn't me or my team... it was just a wrong thing for the guy. But ever since, all the choices I have made in support have just gone up in smoke to many people's humorous acknowledgement! Let's do a roll call...

John Edwards endorsed - drops out the following week!

The New England Patriots go to the Super Bowl undefeated - they lose to the Giants!

Hillary Clinton endorsed - goes on 10 state losing streak! (although its not over!)

So I think I am going to swear off betting for a while and remain neutral a lot. And don't ask me to just support people now just so you can win ok?

Reminds me of a 1984 Saturday Night Live sketch with Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Mary Gross playing members of the Communist party who were being interviewed on a talk show hosted by castmate Billy Crystal. The women are very stern and hard-edged - until they say the same thing at the same time, at which point they both smile at each other, say "Jinx buy me a Coke!", and then do a silly childlike dance and rhyme. The routine is repeated several times in the sketch.

(Drinks a coke just to see if it works)
