Make a Bet with your wife: Her picks on the BAchlorette Vs. a coin of your choice!

My wife and step daughter have liked the two Bachlor series on ABC since they came out. In a conversation today about the Bachlorette, the new series, she stated "i can pick the winner by looks alone" i then said, see, women are just as shallow as men, sometimes!!!

the resulting conversation/making fun of the other resulted in this: by going to the bachlorette website, they pick three guys names, and seals them up in an envelope. one of them has to be the winner. If they both are wrong, they buy me a 1864 2 center (can't remmeber it it's large or small motto) that's still has traces of mint luster (i should have bought it when i first saw it, but that's another story) If they are right, i either have to 1) cook dinner for a week (if the wifey wins) or clean my step daughters room for a week (if she wins) if i beat one, but lose to the other, the one i beat has to help me do whatever the winner picked (dinner or clean).

It ought to be fun. Besides, what are the odds that one of them can pick 1 guy out of 25 based on looks?

    I would have hit them up for more than a 2 center... have them do more chores so we can get more pictures of the heiress image

    It's an easy one for me...neither my wife nor I watch TV at all, so it wouldn't matter.

    Hi BlueCole,

    It is my opinion that you should start looking for that 2 cent piece. I think you have a lead pipe cinch! There is no way they can both guess it. I will be listening for when you crow!
