I misread some of the numbers. When the smoke cleared I only had one number on the extra.

That is one more number than I got. Not one stinking number on the entire ticket, and that is including the Encore!:-(

Now, I know winning the big one is the same as driving from Saskatoon to Terra del Fuego at the tip of South America past fence posts spaced 1m apart, stopping for a little relief along the way, and discovering the one post out of the 13 983 816 posts that has a secret message on it just for you!

But it's fun to dream!

Think I'd take the mis'ss out to Lacombe this summer for a day of golf! My treat. They have great greens!

What would you do?
Was looking at pics of my niece, her husband and their children today - all taken skating at Lacombe. She lives somewhere near there too.

Hey, the 6/49's $39 000 000.00!
It might be that now but by the draw it will be about 42,000,000. Chances of winning are bleak to more bleak. All we do here in the west is pump up the amount so we can make someone in Ontario richer. :smile:

Cliff - it says you are here and I have been searching for you. Where is that thread with all the funny comments about men using the bathroom?

And I appreciate that, Island. Please keep it up! I need some filthy lucre.

I read some of that one too and kind of thought the person who started it was having a really boring day.

Nah! Karrie usually posts those threads when she is having a lark.:lol: She can create some pretty funny threads, JLM.:cool:

You're absolutely right, I'd forgotten it was Karrie. She has a refreshing approach to life and no doubt makes a lot of people laugh, me included.

I haven't seen her around in a little bit. How dare she have a life beyond the hallowed halls of CC?;-):lol:

And the draw has already occurred...one of us may already be a winner!:cool:

Yes it is. Thank you. I did finally find it last night but by the time I did I was truly feeling the need for sleep so I never read anymore of it anyway. I've only read the first page but it is so funny.
In regard to me pumping the money into Ontario - don't worry, I always give more than my share. Since SirFrancis has been so kind as to share that rather large announcement with us - it's still in the bank in somebody else's name!:lol:

Ah! Fools and their money are soon parted. You may as well light your Bar-B-Q with ten dollar bills.
Better still, give it some poor sot who needs a meal.
