What would you do with $350 million?

That's the jackpot on offer for tonight's lottery. Biggest in US history, and if no one wins tonight they expect it will go over $400 mil. Before you get carried away with dreaming, the govt takes more than half of that from you in taxes so you have a choice of a lump sum payment of around $125mil, or 20 yearly payments of around $8mil.

When I win, drinks are on me at the Strawbeery on Sunday!!

Well I would Galaxy...but I only got 1 number. :-( And 2 people in the midwest are splitting the winnings. *sigh* Back to the webcast for me.

Oh well, next time eh?! (:o)

Any luck on the job front? Or are you enjoying being `inbetween` jobs?! (:o)

The latter so far. Can't remember the last time I've felt so mentally relaxed. However with the car going into the shop for the second time in a month, and the upcoming spectre of monthly rent and bills as well as a week of US Toon Tour in July, it's time to start looking for a paycheck source again. ;-)

I don`t believe any of these people who say that winning large amounts of money didn`t make them happy! Must be a case of the wrong people getting the money, `cos I would be as happy as a pig in you know what! (:o)

I think 'shit' is the word you were looking for Galaxy ;-)
