Mega Millions ,who's in?

Up to 540 million so far. 540,hard to believe.

Ya the odds are huge but it's 176 million to one . So ,some one will win,why not you?

That's 10x bigger than any lotto we have had up here.

Good luck to all of you who are playing.

I bought five numbers two nights ago when it was only $360 million. Told my boss to eff off, bought some toys, but didn't win. Now I'll have to play again. I can't believe it.

I guess my neighbors said that to everyone.
Little over a year ago they won one of the Hospital lotteries up here.
Put their house up for sale .
Have not seen them since.

On any given day, you would find me in one of two places the airport or the race track. Oh, and maybe at a race at an airport.

It would be hard to do but the best thing to do if you won would be to not tell anyone except your lawyer.

Our shop is in collectively. We have @25 people - we each gave $5 with the agreement that regardless of what #ticket won - we would split the proceeds equally. Stand by.......

That's how I feel, but I'm sure my wife would eventually figure it out.
