The lottery drawing is over.
At least now I can get in & out of a gas station or convenience store in less than 10 minutes

Little bitter over your loss?

I am. Then again i could only imagine how bad the 47% would demand i pay "My Fair Share" I'd have to hire the homeless union walmart strikers, to run security round my hood

Not bitter at all, didn't play. It will just be nice to go to the store and not have to wait for 37 people throwing away money on a pipedream.

I can top that. Even worse yet, is the one person ahead of you who starts handing over their scratch tickets to verify a win. While doing this they are scratching away the ticket they just received as part of their "winnings"
MMMMMMMMMMMM can i get one of those bronco double pony winners please?

I'm thinking you don't go up to central city much, huh Bert?

Did I win? Did I win???

Nope, last time was the eldest's 21st birthday.

They say only gamble what you can afford to lose. I can't afford to lose anything.

I have never stepped foot in a casino. Not my thing.

But I will play the powerball once or twice a year. Just cause!

I play the powerball and lotto one ticket for each drawing to keep my parents off my back. I figure at least part of it goes to parks and rec. I go to Cripple Creek once a year and take $50 to play and eat with. After I loose it, I feel guilty the whole drive home thinking of how much and what kind of ammo that money would be better spent on.

Reason #23 that I don't gamble... except when I go to Vegas, gotta get down on the 'ol blackjack... but I've only been to Vegas once, and that was a little over a year ago, and we went for a concert, not primarily for gambling.
