More than 1,000 people have joined a lottery pool in Plainview-Old Bethpage ahead of Wednesday night’s record-breaking Powerball drawing in an effort to increase their chances of hitting the big one.

After no one claimed the $948.9 million jackpot Saturday, Ali Kusinitz, 45, went online and floated a question to a Facebook group for Plainview mothers. “Why don’t we all pool our money and...

You know she did get home late last night and was mumbling something about mineral ice and and a numb feeling in her fingers. In fact she kept on showing me one finger in particular that was bothering her, but I'm so used to seeing that one I didn't think anything of it.

In all honesty, if I did win, nobody would ever know about it. I'd hire a representative to front for me to avoid publicity. People that have something coming from me will get it, but anybody that hasn't been there for me when I'm broke need not apply. Plus, there have actually been lottery-related murders. And there's the risk of kidnap, all sorts of dangers.
Nah. I'd quietly collect, take care of my family, put together my farm and simply enjoy the rest of my life. Kids and grandkids will have trusts and futures. Friends and loved ones will likewise be taken care of. Me, I'll be on horseback.
So if I start posting pics of myself on gorgeous equines, you'll know.

Gawd, that was such a good show.

Jayne: "Hell, I'll kill a man in a fair fight... or if I think he's gonna start a fair fight, or if he bothers me, or if there's a woman, or if I'm gettin' paid - mostly only when I'm gettin' paid".

lol, Jayne and Mal were classics.
