We Have a winner in Winner!

Some guy or gal is about to become $232 million dollars richer! There was only one winning ticket for Wednesday nights Powerball jackpot. The lucky ticket was sold in the farming and ranching town (Pop. 2,800) of Winner SD.

The winner who has not yet come forward to make his/her claim, has 180 days in which to do so. The jackpot is the ninth-largest Powerball ever won, and the biggest ever paid out in South Dakota.

Hmmm, I have a third cousin, Uncle Virgil, on my great-grandmothers side, who lives somewhere in the area...

Hey Kats-

the lotto? is this what your blog is coming to?

C. Louis Wolfe said...

Yes DB, SADLY it is. Did you happen to buy a ticket? If you bought it here, you surely didn't win. :-(

Thomas Phillip said...

no I didn't buy a ticket, I don't like wasting money on paper dreams. I'd rather save for a Delux annual pass to Disneyland. which I am. :P

Hey D'est of B's-

You don't happen to be a Disney fan do you? :~}

I think you live in the LA area?, hence DL- Have you ever been to DW? Never been to DL myself, however DW a few times, but not for sometime.

My FAVS are the Haunted Mansion & Pirates of the Carribean. I know they've updated these rides a bit, however I think in these times, they have much more tech to utilize- however that may take away some of their charm?

I tend to be more of a fan of Disney's edgier stuff. NBC, etc.

I like getting the little scratch off tickets at grocey stores... But I HAVE to feel lucky. No use in buying one if you think you're wastin' your money.

Speaking of Disney, I visited the Haunted Mansion attraction down in Florida a couple years back... And what a LOVELY place it was to escape the heat!

P.S. Is this the last post I haven't commented on? It's hard to watch late night talk shows and comment on your million posts at the same time!

I think my finger-tips are bleeding...

But your finger tips are bleeding for a good, honorable reason- to make me happy! Buy some Band-Aids & send me da bill. ;~\
