wps, I had to steal that one from WC, it was just perfect. LOL. Atomic and gofigure, your comments are a little tasteless if I have to say so myself. My only hope is that this man, as well as others that win, do something good with the money.

Duke5555= I can tell you that a lot of people are saying the same thing about the tickets. I know I used to play, well over the past 6 months never played before then and the most I have won was 40 dollars. I played 18 tickets in a row on the 2 dollar tickets and won 8 dollars of course lost it all back its so sad. I just dont play them anymore.

wtg!!! I was listening to the news night before last where they said revenue was down in the lottery.Well I can tell you why since you dont know why!!!I worked at a tobacco store just quit recently to focus solely on school, but when the power-ball tickets went up sales went down, so I would suggest putting them back at a dollar. I dont play it anymore, I have stuck with mega millions in which I dont play that often.

atomic, that's just stupid and uncalled for...he'll probably spend it on bills and his family like most people have to do these days.

If it was me, I'd take half of it and gamble, drink and chase wild women. The other half, I'd waste it on stupid stuff. LOL
