Lottery Madness

 Both Mega Millions and Power Ball jackpots are extremely high.  Not sure how high.  Up near half billion or more on both I think.

Odds are astronomically against winning, on the down side.

Being poor and short on cash, of course I doled out two bucks for a ticket.  That's how we po'r folk dream.  That and about getting an inheritance. 

Well anyhow, do you think this freight train racing through town yesterday had an engineer in a big hurry to get off work?   Actually I don't think there is a speed limit on trains through town.  I could be wrong.

  1. I haven't looked at the jackpot lately. Maybe you'll win. That would be awesome.

  2. I know better, but I usually buy a lottery ticket when the jackpot gets high

  3. That train driver was in a hurry. A big hurry.
    No lottery tickets for me - though himself buys one each week. And occasionally has a small win.

  4. Fingers crossed for you. There would be a speed limit for the train and it would be a brave driver who exceeded it these days, especially through a town. However, the train does seem to be travelling very fast. At least it will clear the crossing more quickly.

  5. Good luck. Someone gotta win, don't they?
