Its a lot more fun to bet on sports and horse racing and such. Mostly becuase you win about half the time.

Keep playing so they can buy some spelling books at your "schook." Or maybe just some typing books.

Arthritis medication.

I see it keeps you on your toes!

My office (15 of us) hit for 200 grand about six to eight months ago.

Taxes came right off of the top. We were left with 140 grand, or a little over 9300 dollars each. When I filed my taxes, I got a little bit of the taxes back. I guess that I walked away with about 11 grand.

We have been playing for a long time. We were two numbers away from 143 Million. The Powerball number was 11 and we had a 9. We were bummed, but happy at the same time. We came very close to "mass retirement". The boss was relieved.

My wife was shocked when I handed her a nice fat check.

Funny thing.....we hit for 100 dollars the following week.

We still play when the jackpot goes over 50 Million or so.

+ 1,400,000,000 to 1

I see what you are thinking, and I could not agree more.

The odds of us winning the 200 grand was one in three and a half million.

But we won....

Two of my friends from high school hit the Lotto. One hit the state lotto for 2 million and the other hit the Powerball for 38 Million.

The one that hit for 38 Million.....it ruined his life.

I'm fairly certain I have a better chance of winning the lottery then Tom Cruise has at achieving a state of Nirvana with Scientology.

There was an attorney that worked with me that was a Scientologist. He was a legend around here. Retired after working for a long, long time.....almost 45 years.

I was told that for a long time the guy slept at work. He did not even have an apartment.

Don't know if he had a dime when he passed. The rumor was that he gave a huge sum of money to the Church of Scientology. I think his was on Canal Blvd.

That's like saying your chances of living are better when jumping from 10,000 feet from a plane with no parachute instead of jumping 10,001.
