Call Me - I Might Have Won the Lottery
FOUND by Beth Fedorka
in Hinesville, Georgia
I found this in the street while I was walking my dogs in my neighborhood. I could tell it was a lottery slip, so I picked it up. I wish I knew who J was so I could ask if she won the lottery or if Mo (?) called!

We collect FOUND stuff: love letters, birthday cards, kids' homework,
to-do lists, ticket stubs, poetry on napkins, telephone bills, doodles -
anything that gives a glimpse into someone
else's life. Anything goes...
"You are doing better now." It's all it takes...
so am I...first time first...
I would do the lottery with those numbers, could be a sign.
m-
i been trying to tell you i'm not staring at you. you are not the same brother. you are doing time now and i really do fear you. please pick up the phone on your side of the glass. love, j
yeah, Mo has dealt with his gambling addiction.
I'm writing all future notes on gambling slips.
Mo you've changed for the better. J
Well J you may have been trying to tell Mo that you're not mad, but clearly Mo is not listening. Perhaps this great change that has taken place within him has made him realize that anyone who composes a love-letter on a lottery card might not be the safest bet.
...and it may just be that I spent the entire weekend in bed watching Midsomer Murders, but this strikes me as a dynamite clue!
It's to Mario, and the last line should have read "page me later!"
Why does the recipient's name appear to say Me-m, (or something) as if it's the true name of G-d, which shall not be uttered or rendered into print?
I thought it said call or test me, and I thought: math, geography, or head games... and then I re-read it, and somehow it makes more sense now.
@ captain--
good point.
captain, ftw?
I concur. Captain FTW.
I, personally, am still mad.
@turbo: Are you mad at Me-m, though, or just mad in general?
At first I read Mom at the top but I couldn't figure out why someone would tell their mom, "You are not the same man"!?
Been trying to tell him she's not mad at him- and the only way to get his attention, apparently, is on a Mega Millions form?
I wonder what he did, when he was that other, different man. Was he under the influence of the devil's drug? Did he toss the baby in the microwave in a haze of drug-induced psychosis? did he beat J? Sleep with her second cousin? What did Me-M doooo?
J-
I never asked if you were made at me.
I'm pissed you stole my lottery tickets.
No I'm not the same man because Mo is your ex.
Stop loving me and give me back my shit.
-Steve.
Dear G-d (for the Capt.),
I been trying to tell You I'm not mad at You. You are not the same as mortal men. You are much better because You can give me the winning lottery numbers and I really do love You.
Please call or text me or give me some kind of sign.
Love,
-J
(@Lars, I had a much better, tackier one that my conscience wouldn't permit me to post.)
Dear J,
No.
Love,
G-d.
Is this from the Simpsons episode where Mo says to J "I'm gonna buy you a steak the size of a terlit seat"?
Last night I was with a friend whose recent ex called him, seriously, 22 times in less than an hour.
I hate what relationships do to women.
J
Love me
text or call please
you love
do really I?
and now...
better doing are you!
man same
the not are you.
you at mad?
Not! I'm you.
tell to trying been I.
-Just thought I would see what it looks like backwords.
RuthieMae, I am mad at Merm. Fucker never called.
Call or TEXT ME? Discussing relationship issues is hard enough without having to do it in 140 characters or less.
Oops, I read the salutation as "Mom", then the "You're not the same man" line really caused me some concern!
@L if you can start a relationship discussion on a lottery ticket, surely you can finish it in a text message?
First I thought it was a Scantron test form and I thought that at the end it said "test me."
maybe it is because I am up way past my bedtime, but I am finding these comments to be hilarious!
@night- you can't just lay that out there and not share it... unless, of course it has something to do with todays earlier find- then, by all means, keep it in.
@winston, that reads like my favorite poet- ee cummings. nice!
