TOUGH LUCK

A guy got home from work one night and heard a voice. The voice told him:
“Quit your job, sell your house, take your money and go to Vegas.”
The man was disturbed by what he heard, but ignored the voice. The next day when he got home from work, the same thing happened. The voice told him:
“Quit your job, sell your house, take your money and go to Vegas.”
Again the man ignored the voice, though he was very troubled by the event. Every day, day after day, the man heard the same voice when he got home from work:
“Quit your job, sell your house, take your money, go to Vegas.”
Each time he heard the voice, he became more upset. Finally, after two weeks, he succumbed to the pressure. He quit his job, sold his house, took his money and headed to Las Vegas. The moment the man got off the plane, the voice told him:
“Go to Harrah's.”
So he hopped in a cab and rushed over to Harrah's. As soon as he set foot in the casino, the voice told him:
“Go to the roulette table.”
The man did as he was told. When he got to the roulette table, the voice told him:
“Put all your money on 17.”
Nervously, the man cashed in his money for chips and then put it all on number 17. The dealer wished the man good luck and spun the roulette wheel. Around and around the ball caromed. The man watched the ball anxiously as it slowly lost speed, until finally it settled into number ...21. The voice said:
“Shit.....”
