I like it!

Cute, but I still hate the lotto.

This is clever and wonderful! I personally will not give up until I win. I know I will someday, I just feel it. Came close a few times.

Maryjane31:
I consider it my voluntary tax, as I do Mega Millions. I have a one dollar dog in the hunt for each drawing. Usually, my winnings are dribbles of $4 or $7 on a frequency resembling that of a blue moon. Once a couple of months ago, I won $150. I'm with you in not giving up, knowing, and feeling. If you want to talk entitlement reform, this where I'd like to start. I'd like to have my big winnings right about now, thank you very much.

BanjoDan:
Obviously, I need to win big to take care of my out-of-the-woodwork relatives like you. I hope you're paying your voluntary taxes, since the "theory of relativity" is a two-way street.

I figure there's as much chance of winning if I play as if I don't play... but on the flip side, it only costs a dollar for a few hours of big dreams.

RedStickWriter says,

Please, God, let it happen now.
