Somebody's going to win this money, it might as well be me! This is a big jack-pot, and what other chance do I have even if it's a slim one. I only play when the prize is BIG!

Much better odds with our raffle ticket for a car worth $32,000

Only 2,500 tickets and if you don't win, you are still a winner because you help sick kids!Win-Win :cool:

I thought that too, then two years ago the state gave me a check for 100k, like they say, you can not win if you don't play. ;)

You'd have to be crazy not to take your one and only shot.

On a different note, the big 4 drawing had an extremely rare coincidence yesterday. It is drawn twice a day for those that don't know, a day and evening drawing.

The day drawing is a computer generated random number drawing which was 3199. The evening number which is drawn by the old traditional ping pong ball method was also 3199. I don't know what the odds of that are, but its pretty interesting.

Someone in PA won (half?) but it wasn't me. Probably some rich guy! Oh well, we did win a few small prizes along the way.

It was the weather lady from 96.5 the point.

Was listening to that station this morning on my way to a job when I heard it. The staff were thinking of all the stuff she should buy them. It was funny. Barsky in the morning.

Yeah, I heard that too... then at around 9:45 the announced that they were kidding. They called it a "late April Fools joke".

Had me believing them, that's for sure!

This morning they were playing all the news clips making fun of all the reporters who rushed over to their radio station. Seems reporters weren't too happy that they wasted all their time and reported false news. One reporter, upset that he got caught with his pants down, asked, "Aren't you worried about your credibility after pulling a stunt like that?"... Barsky said, "No, not at all. But YOU should for reporting unconfirmed events as fact... You just rushed right down here because it was more important to be first instead of accurate". :D
