There was a song in the 60's called "Hey look me over" There's a line that goes "Don't thumb your nose folks, take a tip from mine" which I thought went "Don't pick your nose but take a pick from mine" For some strange reason that song used to remind me of the man who collected the pools money.. Wierd or what !!
