I have it all planned out what I'm going to do.

I'm going to buy 10,000 acres of land in South Dakota, I'm gonna build a couple of small log cabins with a big old fireplace in the middle of each one to heat and cook on. One cabin will be for music, the other for livin'. Drill for natural gas, set up some generators, pump my own well water, provide my own electric, and nobody will ever see me again except for people I know that want to come jam. I swear to God nobody would ever see me again unless I needed something from someone in an emergency. Medical attention ... etc. I'd hire some idiot to go get stuff for me so I never have to leave my property.

I'd have a beard and head of hair down to my ankles. Probably no teeth in a couple years due to lack of caring about what people think of me.

I'd grow the most righteous weed you ever tasted, whip up my own acid ... and I'd live out the rest of my days f'd up and happy.

Please *insert deity of your choosing here* ... please let me win. I beg of you.

Sad in a way, ain't it? But at least I'm being 100% brutally honest.

Ooh ... Bub Weed ... an all new strain. It makes you paranoid, unhappy, and gives you the feeling of being screwed.

ROFL!

I like your style Bub. Maybe keep the teeth in case you want to chew some buffalo hide or become a dental floss tycoon.

The lottery is for folks who are bad at math. I can see the fantasy value of buying a ticket when it gets really, really big. But it pains me to see folks who can't afford to waste that dollar and more on a daily basis.

See ... now you're usin' your noggin'! I could buy a heard of Buffalo and have all the food, clothing, utensils, cooking oil, and a zillion other household things, that I could ever need ... for free! The heard would grow, I could sell some off to some idiot in town, and make even more money on top of my 10's of millions.

The Buffalo truly is a magical beast. I could live off of 3 or 4 a year.

Yesterday was the first time I've bought lottery tickets here in Missouri since I moved down here from Iowa.

I got a drink and paid for it with a credit card ... then I asked her for 2 tickets and handed her my debit card.

She looked at me like I had two heads and asked why I just didn't pay for it all at once with my credit card.

I explained to her that I just moved here and we weren't allowed to do that in Iowa and I assumed it was the same everywhere. If you don't have the cash, or money in your account to draw out immediately with a debit card, you can't buy anything lottery related. Scratch off's, drawings, etc. It avoids a lot of bad scenario's, short of someone stealing the cash or someones debit card/pin #.

I guess they don't worry about it down here, which is good and bad. The nanny state thing is a slippery slope and it's out of control before you know it.
