Hear about that person who bought a couple tickets...the winning ticket was purchased at 9:00:08 and the cut-off is 9:00? First ticket purchased was a no-go, but the second would have won had it been sold 8 seconds earlier? Give or take. I think I'd snap. Slip going up the tower stairs, fall down and be paralyzed from the waist down...super-vixen moves in next door and does it...to everyone. Me, paralyzed. I snap again...up goes the garage door, opener clanking the rollers squeaking, me headin out in the motorized chair...wild-eyed expression and a Luger. Semi backing up to move the vixen out backs over me...paralyzes me from the neck down. Yeah...that's the kind of luck I have.

That's too bad, because I am going to win the whole 380 million.

I never play the lottery, but this time I did. Hey my lucks gotta give at some point!
Hey - I was just wondering - if you win - can we hold the next King Kong at your place?

Or maybe you could book a whole floor at the Stanley for summer 2016?! :congratulatory::lol2:

Oh, hell. Now I'll probably buy one.

Government lottery = a tax on people who are bad at math.
Guess I'll pay the tax.

Tellya what. If I win the grand prize, I will bring the entire group of forum regulars to the next signing by Mr. King. You know, just in the spirit of the thread and the forum. And now it's a contract. I wouldn't want to get sued.
