I mean there are worse responsibilities you could end up with right?

Not enough lottery winnings

This wall will be real, it will be effective, and I’m going to make the damn residents of New Bedford pay for it. That’ll teach them to stay off S-Btyhunk island...

Let's get some tickets loaded! It's only about the same odds as catching a 70 lb striper inside sengacontucket pond with a hot dog on a mickey mouse rod loaded with 6 lb test line!

Not to act like we’re going to win this tonight or anything, but can we all agree to claim this as a trust if we do win? Both CT and MA allow it... staying anonymous has proven to be a very clear preference for people who don’t want to ruin their lives after winning.

Well said John. Still time to run to the store and load up a few more......

When you've walked the death march under a new moon with the smell of fish in the air, fallen and torn your rotator cuff, casted a few times and got hung up on a an anchor of mung and broke your rod trying to retrieve an Afterhours plug on 65 lb braid, walked back to your truck broken.....physically, mentally....

You've driven back to your fish hut and your roomies point to a cooler with a broomstick hanging out one end and you suddenly feel......it was all worth it!

Throw out $6 bucks for a ticket and join the pool! It's much easier than the death march :-)

a one million dollar ticket was from the next town over from me in Bridgewater .


I got my powerball ticket 620 million tonight

is there a thread for the powerball?

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.
