Record lottery jackpot?

Less than a month to the end of the world via solar storm, Nibiru, Planet X, whatever...

Just occurred to me that I might win, and then not get to enjoy it for long.

Wouldn't that just suck?😄

That would be your luck P, but if you don't get it?

If I even get $10k out of it, I'd run for cover if I were you.

500 million is an OBSCENE number. If you were the only winner you could buy Mitt Romney and still have over a hundred million left over...

...however, you'd only have HALF as much as Obama raised to run for President this last time... 1 BILLION...

...think about it...

You could get working on the Deathstar - perhaps you're meant to end it :)

Why would anyone buy Mitt?

That's a real case of "Keep the receipt."

After taxes, though, it's only about $276 m, I read.

In all honesty, though, it's just the fun of playing it. Where can you get such entertainment for $2?

No place I know of since they took the quarter booths out of the local adult bookstore.

OH that's so bad Tugon.

😄 there is a reason I love reading these threads in the morning, somewhere someplace I always get a good laugh.

I wonder if Mitt has been the Minneapolis airport loo of late?
