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.  Oh no! not you again

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 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. Fuck you Gazza, Will ya?

I agree. Great story. Smiley 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!  Wink

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!
