I already bought for tomorrow. I accidentally bought 5 extras. So I guess I suck a bigger share if we win :)

We won nothing and neither did anyone else. Estimated jackpot on Friday will be over $200 million.

I'll wait until then to ask who wants in again.

Drawing tonight.

I'll assume Catt and Gordo are still in. TPR?

I'm out and about now, but will check in here later.

At the risk of derailing. . .

What would you do with your winnings? My fantasy would involve hooking up all my friends and family with huge chunks of money. Hell, I'd have millions, surely I could spare a good bit. But then the list of friends and family grows rather quickly. If you give some to friend A, will friend B feel left out? Can you give different amounts to different people without ending up losing friends and family over it? My fantasy still involves giving friends and family chunks of money. Just haven't worked out the details. Oh, and there'd be lots of charity too. Animals, Vets (as in military), Police and Fire fighters would top my list. And of course my 'perfect game' would be created.

If you'd keep it all for yourself, you don't have to go into details "Two women at the same time.". Just saying you'd keep it all is good enough for my curiosity.

I would give portions (up to gift tax exclusions) to close friends/family, annually.

I would throw a DTMan party in Vegas. Or the Caribbean. Maybe both.

I would buy a nice house with a lot of acres, or a nice house with an acre but near the beach.

I would buy some acreage to build a small racetrack on, and race mini-cars.

I would buy sweet UNC basketball tickets, football tickets, and lower-level Redskins tickets.

I would also create a foundation for charity stuff. My wife would control half, and I'd control half. My emphasis would be on college scholarships to UNC.

I'd give some to friends and family, sure.

The rest would be earmarked for blackjack and hookers.

Friends and family. If I suck, everybody wins and we all have fun together.

Lots of land with a big fence, gun turrets, and no one on my lawn. With servants.

However many times I've posted numbers plus the $5 I gave Catt for you.

No one won MegMaillions. Leisher, want me to get the next round? My Dad gave me $10 for him and his wife, anyway, so they are in on the pool. And I owe you money, anyway.

As long as that isn't too Obama.

Anyway, if you want, I can get tickets for the Aug 25 drawing tonight or tomorrow.

Yeah, that's cool. Obviously where I buy them is screwing us over by not giving me the winning numbers despite me asking for them.

Hey Catt, was there a powerball drawing Saturday night and were we in it? Or did someone win the big jackpot?
