Thaddeus the Straw Chaser

There is a man I have met before whose name is Thaddeus. Thaddeus was a big star in the lottery industry and he always had his photograph taken with all of the lottery winners.  In Thaddeus's spare time, he spent it on his farm chasing straw that he needed to feed to his horses.  This was his pleasure and he always wanted to find more straw to feed all seventy of his horses.  This was truly Thaddeus's right as he felt that having a good number of horses proved that he was truly a man that was to be remembered in the daylight, morning and evenings of life.   I liked Thaddeus when we met, but sadly, I could not enjoy his best wishes to try to play the lottery.  I just did not like my chances.  I thought I would be throwing my money away and perhaps I was happy with my lot in life as it was so given.  That was ok with me.  Thaddeus was a big Broadway actor too and he soon was able to get a good dozen shows a month in which he was the lead role in a hit about cotton growers.   I did enjoy Thaddeus's show and it was a good one to be seen even twice, but that said, Thaddeus's skills on the stage were adequate but really not that superior.  He was interesting and I enjoyed it when he sang in his bass to tenor voice too, but if you like to listen to baritones, Thaddeus was not the guy for you.  That said, Thaddeus was a firm handshake and I predict success for a good time.  He sends telegrams to the sick and he winds his old fashioned car and starts its engine efficiently and it is always a neat ride to see around the corn cob acres of the prairie.   Indeed Thaddeus was dignified and he never slew a chicken on his farm without first checking if the chicken was ready to be slaughtered, but that said, Thaddeus and I should indeed find more merit in going to the bowling alley and bowling and perhaps maybe someday having a beer or cigar together.   I was trying to introduce Thaddeus to my best friends Robert and Mark and John but sadly, he said that he only wanted to be around his friends Thomas, Frank and David.  That was ok with me, but I really think that he might like my other friends as well.  
So if you meet Thaddeus, please watch out, he does not like to watch the cinema on the television set often and he really likes to stand in the day light and count the corn from the harvest.   Indeed Thaddeus is a wise fellow.  If you like to play the Lottery, Thaddeus will even pose for a photo with you if you don't win the Expensive Prize.
