Re: Did You Get Caught Up in the PowerBall Mania?

I just told my cat (Billy) that his Mom was probably one of the only people who didn't buy a ticket.  I said, "I'm sorry Billy, but we won't be billionaires.

Re: Did You Get Caught Up in the PowerBall Mania?

I didn't bother but my mother & brother have purchased tickets.  When my mother called me today, she told me if she doesn't call me back by 11:15p, she didn't win.

 

I told her to call me even if she got the powerball # because that's a win too!

Yep, and I had to drive 90 minutes each direction to get across the state border in order to get tickets.  Bought for two draws, so that if I don't win tonight I'll win next draw when the amount is 2 B  LOL

 

Just saw a story on the news.  If everyone in the US put their name in a hat, you have the same chance of winning the powerball as you would have to draw your own name out of the hat.  OK, so I still have a chance

Well, I guess. I spent $24 last Saturday, and won $24. I reinvested it today. I want it back now. :-)
