Wed invitation lottery not winning fans
DEAR ABBY: The letter from
"Happy to Lose the Lottery”
is just another sign of the
decline of manners in our
society. Co-workers were noti
fied by email that their names
had been “entered in a lottery,"
the winners of which would
receive invitations to attend a
“small but poignant wedding."
The writer had not been a winner, but was
advised to send a gift anyway.
You asked readers if they cared to comment. I
certainly do My reply:
Dear Elmer and Gladys: Like your wedding,
my bank account is also a "small but poignant
affair,” and due to the "physical nature” of cash
flow difficulties. 1 cannot send gifts to all my
friends and relatives.
Per your suggestion. I have “held a lottery
with your name included, but alas, you were not
on the winners list." When my gift does not
arrive, you will know you've invented a "most
equitable" solution for any “disappointment
problem." I “thank you in absentia.”
MARTY IN SEATTLE
DEAR MARTY: You are a wit. and I’m sure
your suggested response will bring a smile to
many faces. That letter generated a flood of mail
from longtime readers, many of whom had not
been moved to pick up a pen and write to me
before. Read on for a sample; I only wish I
could print more of them:
DEAR ABBY: I don't know if this follows the
Golden Rule, but it does answer the question,
“What are friends for?” This is my response to
Elmer and Gladys:
Dear Friends: Sorry to learn we didn't win the
lottery to attend your wedding. In order to cele
brate your good fortune, we decided to take the

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Dec.
5). Your attraction to a new
area of employment should be
pursued, even if it means sign
ing up for months or even
years of training. Money trick
les in through the next five
weeks to help with your new
goals evidence you are on
the lucky track. Through
January and February, singles
meet eligible prospects through
friends of siblings, advertise
ments and travel.
ARIES (March 21-April 19).
New luck keeps popping up in
your life. If your conscious
mind doesn't know what to
do, your unconscious mind
does. An emotional release
helps you mend and re-estab
lish ties. You have the luxury
of choice.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
Learn to trust your intuition,
and search for the larger mean
ing of life otherwise, you’re
scattering your energy to the
wind. You watch from the side
lines at work or in your com
munity until you realize you
should take the lead.

ness. When you return home,
we'd be glad to tell you of all the kind thoughts
we had of you in absentia. If you’ll take us out
to dinner, we can discuss our good fortune. Best
wishes to you both.
HERMAN IN CYPRESS, CALIF.
DEAR ABBY: When I read the “invitation" from
Elmer and Gladys, my jaw dropped. Do you
think they actually expect a gift and a continuing
friendship with those people? I don’t think so!
However, I would send them a gift, all right
—a book on etiquette. They need to learn a
thing or two.—
TORONTO, ONTARIO, CANADA
DEAR ABBY: How's this for a response. Abby?
"Please don't worry about having to send us a
thank-you card for our gift. Since our presence
at your wedding was not required, our presents
will not be forthcoming. Better luck next time!"
MRS. B. IN L.A.
DEAR ABBY: The invitation from Elmer and
Gladys was hilarious, and personally I wouldn’t
have responded at all. I have known stranger
announcements. My parents received a wedding
announcement from a couple that included a
note on a prescription pad from the doctor’s
office that said. "I certify that this girl was a vir
gin.” My thought on that was, “At one time, we
all were virgins."
ABBY FAN
Under the star's gaze
GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
Bide your time patience
pays off in a big way. A can
celed date must not be inter
preted as rejection. Mother/
daughter relations improve dra
matically. Set up meetings
there’s almost no one who
won’t take your call.
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
Being available for last-minute
assignments will get you noticed
by the boss. Children will manip
ulate you if given the chance. A
love affair springs to life dunng a
platonic lunch. Keep away from
what is forbidden.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You
expertly manage your time,
and help others get organized.
Details and routine tasks are
dispatched speedily and accu
rately. Business entertaining
will be a real feather in your .
career cap. Romance and free
dom conflict.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
A philanthropic act gets you
positive attention. You can be
the peacekeeper of the family
by noticing patterns in your
own life and sharing your wis
dom. Relationship bliss comes
from being honest with your
feelings.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).
Prioritize carefully, skipping
items of secondary importance
for now. You need more time
to realize your ambitions. A
Leo helps revive your self
esteem. A romantic atmosphere
over dinner makes it easy to
talk openly.

sum of nearly SSOO we had
saved for your wedding gift and
do the following:
We spent the money at a
luxurious hotel where we had a
three-course dinner and offered
a number of toasts in your honor
with our favorite champagne in
celebration of your future happi-
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).
You are getting serious about
making the money you want to
make pinpoint objectives in
business. Don’t even think
about potentially losing a part
ner, it only makes you more
vulnerable to loss. Acquain
tances are lucky.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.
21). Being the teacher comes
naturally to you, but be careful
not to come off as a know-it
all. A teen is motivated when
you set a good example. Sin
gles may find new romance
with someone much younger.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19). Tackle overdue chores,
they are keeping you from
thinking clearly! Use your
sense of humor to ease tension
at work. You can restore your
confidence in a loved one by
bringing up an issue you don’t
want to talk about.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.
18). You are a model of persis
tence and integrity; others fol
low your lead. Testing a cur
rent love is silly. Show your
trust in others, and it will be
returned. Let inefficient work
ers go; accept more responsi
bility, and success results.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
You have the power to stop
confusion before it starts.
Romantic hassles end when
you show more independence.
Transportation delays important
meetings. Update your business
with the newest technology to
attract new customers.
