My bank has been kissing my arse ever since my parents died and the estate is getting sold. I can only imagine what those pretty girls at my branch would do if I deposited that kind of money, hehehehehehehehe...

Imagine the fun I would have with such a sum, Hmmm. I wonder how much it would cost to outfit a brigade of Infantry? with trucks, arms, food stuffs ammo.

A little filibustering in Central America or in Africa. heheh

You don't KNOW that! It' MIGHT be me!!!

I'm in the office pool, ya'know....

(Of course, the problem is that God will not let me win the lottery because then I wouldn't have to depend on HIM for my sustinance; I could just depend on temporal MONEY that does not sustain or satisfy....)

Stupid money.

Somebody scored BIG TIME! Imagine waking up and finding out you are worth hundreds of millions of dollars!

The I.R.S. is going to love this person.

I hope some broke guy won, I dont want some proessional player who spent 1 million dollars on tickets, playing the odds by playing the odds. I want it to be some quick pick player who got his/her ticket at Z mart or something.

I'd be hooting and hollering, but I'd also lay low, and get legal counsel, and I would not want to be identified, America has enough nutjobs running loose, much less the world.

What I can't help thinking is, I hope that much money doesn't tare their family apart. We rarely hear what happens to these people after a few years.

In NY there were two multi million dollar winners recently. One Chinese the other Dominican. They are both in hiding now that their faces and address were plastered all over the papers.

I would buy a new evil fortress of doom in the Carribiean, and then upgrade my defenses.

There are some automated perimeter machine guns I've had my eye on for quite some time.

Nah the supper villian lair is old hat.

8 manual laborers in a processing plant won. That's kind of cool.

A guy here in Oklahoma matched enough numbers that he won $500,000.

I heard about that, One guy said, that they used to kid around the water cooler of what they would do If they won. they mentioned a private Island, Or a Yacht. Then when they Won, they all admited, they don't care for water that much.
