Betting Protocol

was at inner harbor a few years ago. a younger looking woman, with 3 young kids in tow, was bugging every one for a couple of bucks. when she gets to me, her line was that her kids haven't eaten in a couple of days, could i spare a buck or 2? i said no, but lets walk over to ESPN zone and that i would buy her and her family lunch. she dropped about 10 f bombs on me, and walked hastily away. don't hand the bum the money, but offer to buy him a meal

Watch the Seinfeld episode when Jerry bets Kramer that he won't build steps in his apartment, you'll find the answer there.

Exactly. The bet was whether or not he could make the same setup next to the homeless guy. He can't do it, so you win

I like the guys who hold the signs "Will work for food" just ask one of them if they want to work for the day. I have done it twice on Saturdays thinking I could use a little help around the house and both times I have been turned down. They don't want to loose any money by actually working for it.
