I did not win the Powerball this evening

[KRCummings]

It breaks your heart, I know. With 300mil I could buy Lit and rule over you all! Muahahahahahahahahahaha!

Maybe on Wednesday.

I guess they don't teach odds & statistics at t'OSU.

 

[CHNOPS]

I always laugh at the people who will only buy the ticket when the jackpot is 17-infinity-million dollars.

As if the 1.5-million-to-one return of the regular jackpots just isn't worth the 17 seconds.

It is misunderstood. Hahaha.

 

[islandman]

Did anyone win it?

My time is precious.

Actually though I play every Wednesday and Saturday. I have for years. It's habit now. 4 bucks a week. I won 7 dollars once. And now Poweball is 2 bucks a ticket. That has me thinking maybe my time is up. It's a young kids game.

My luck I would win and get hit by lightning the next day.

 

[KRCummings]

I don't think they've said yet.

The longer you go without winning the better your chances become. If you can manage to stay alive for something like 14,000,000 years, your chances go to almost even money.

 

[islandman]

I've been playing Saturdays with a former office-mate since about 2006. We've yet to win more than a couple of bucks on a ticket. It's become more routine than anything nowadays.

Two years ago my brother matched all the numbers except the Powerball.

...I've never seen a guy piss away 10 thousand dollars so fast in my life.....

Lottery money should be pissed away in my opinion.
I could lose 10K in about 30 seconds if I wanted to. 300 million might take me a week. Maybe.

You do realize it's just another tax?

I can see the movie now, KRC's Millions.

You could play a black comedian with an afro.

As long as it gets a new Vikings stadium, I am OK with that.

I agree with this. My father had a single bit of advice for all found-money--bonuses at work, a hundred dollar bill in an old coat, a football pool win:

"Go have some fun."

Brewster was an amateur.

Or you could just build a space ship around the old one like Soldier Field.

Like you could beat the Yankees.

LOL...it's been the mildest winter in memory here in Houston. Actually got cold enough to wear a winter coat earlier this week for the first time.

Forty bucks in the inside pocket!

Yep. I'm the person that really would use the money to buy some place just so I could fire a person I didn't like and I'd consider it money well spent.

 

[KRCummings]

True, I may have to think outside the box on that one.

Hahaha..The Bears still suck!

Pitchers and catchers in just over a week.

Hells yeah!
