I will invite Brock but I'll give him the wrong address. I'd be more than happen to have miles come along but something tells me he'd rather visit Pyongyang than NYC.
    I have offered miles to do a Skype I have it off in miles to do a telephone call I heard or I have offered Mazda visit me in New York City please much more focused on the cult of personality

    Spent 15 minutes in line for a 60 second transaction after work tonight. Everyone and their grandmamma was buying multiple tickets.

    On a side and at the risk of sounding like a commie, 800 million dollars is far too much for a single person to be awarded

    I don't like cameras or phones, so nothing personal there. I hate using a phone really. Plus Sype here is only through some third party so you have to pay for it and I am not bothering with any of that. I prefer face to face or just the simplicity of text. I would love to visit NY, but Pyongyang would be pretty cool too.

    It is obscene amount and will ruin you should you win.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    What would you do with it? It's a lot and I am fairly frugal. I guess I would give a million to every poster above 10000 posts and those on my friends list. Then thats still 660 million. Maybe 30 million for family. I am careful, so put plenty away for life and retirement. Lots of gold and silver and property. I will rent the property to poor people cheaply on the basis that they get a job. Still a lot left over. Maybe finance a coup somewhere poor and become leader. They would love me in a few years as I would want to do for them what happened here in the 60's, just a bit more Castroesque. That's all.

    You will become a communist leader who abuses his power because absolute power corrupts everyone in that position. I would have to start a revolution and shoot you down and I will take over and become a dictator. Walrus will shoot me and Brock will shoot him....ect all revolutions will come from the money you gave us.

    I can honestly say I wouldn't have a clue how to buy a lottery ticket, I've bought scratch cards in the past but the lottery hsa never grabbed my attention

    am I right in saying that you are just as likely to win by having the number 1,2,3,4,5,6 as you are for example 1,11,16,25,34,42?

    I suppose I should make a point of putting them numbers on now because they will probably come up if I don't

    actually thinking about it if I was to put them numbers on would I be able to buy a ticket with the same numbers twice?I'm just thinking if there is some bastard out there thinking they can take half of the money, would I then get 2/3 of it?
