Don't feel bad.

When the lottery gets big in La., my office gets together and buys dozens of tickets, only to win a few bucks here & there.  :forfucksake

My friend's ex-husband won $1 million in 2007.  It was a raffle commemorating the 25th anniversary of the WA state lottery.  Several years before that a woman from my little village won the actual state lottery.  We play $3/wk.  One of these days....

I thought it was you Ginda. I heard someone from Washington state was one of the winners.

I wish... [smiley=cry.gif]  The winning ticket was purchased in a little town (Ephrata) about 70 miles from here.

I had already spent all the winning money in my mind, so I decided, I won't bother getting a ticket....

I won (my share) of $100,000 in 2003...after taxes and my split ( 1 out of 12),

I had enough money to pay for my wedding and honeymoon...

another lottery horror story for the books.

(kidding sweetheart ;D)

I won 3 bucks, I'm gonna parlay that shit.

I saw the winners from Washington state. A nice old couple who played birthday numbers. The guy is a vietnam vet. They have 23 grandkids. Straight out of central casting. Good for them. :willya

I agree.  I like to see regular hardworking people win.  

I agree. Great story. :) I get the feeling that this will be money well used...I'm happy for them!

Ha ha, saw them on a news report today. When they handed the man the oversized check for $190,000,000 {whew!}, he said "I've been married 41 years. I know what to do with this", then he handed it over to his wife!  ;)

The winners from Idaho have come forward, Wow,what a difference from the feelgood story of the washington couple. http://www.radaronline.com/exclusives/2011/01/exclusive-lottery-winner-holly-lahti%E2%80%99s-estranged-husband-20-arrests-40-million

No wonder she didn't show up for the winner's announcement !

That is why you should never, ever get married!  It's a useless piece of paper that will only bring you problems!

My co-worker was expecting a huge tax refund, but her estranged husband owed child support from a previous marriage, so the IRS took her check!  Because, she was still legally married to him!
