Sticktoitiveness

"Never give up" might be a good motto. And then again it might not. Like Jayspurs McVey, a man that died a few years back, investing in a silver mine in Colorado or New Mexico or some place out there. The people that were heading up the expedition kept coming back for more money to buy special drill bits or other new equipment. They were always just inches away from the payload. Jayspurs died poor. Minnie Whitmorse never married. She said she was waiting for a brave knight to come riding up on a white horse. When she died last year the pallbearers turned out to be the only men who ever took her out. Heflin Burkehammer, a local lawyer, has joined every multilevel marketing scheme that came to Harper. Yesterday, down at the barbershop, he vowed never to get involved with another one. He said he figured if he had spent as much time building his practice as he had trying to get rich quick he probably would be rich or at least richer. About that time Millard Maize started telling about this thing he just got involved with called Luster Lust. All you had to do was sign up three people and get them to sign up three people and you were assured to be making at least $1000 a week within a year. Heflin left with Millard saying he would come back later for his haircut. Giving up may not be a good thing, but I can't find a lot of fault with a fellow who does it.
