I only bought one ticket last night and had my daughter pick the numbers...she was asking what all the hype was about so I showed her how it was done....all I won was another free ticket from last nights drawing...this is the first time since I've bought one in two years

I also explained to her that we had a better chance of getting hit by lightning...she kinda freaked at that comment...

Good morning, Jim! Were you able to swing by and pick up the wiper blades yet? Give me a shout if you'd like to have any feedback about this documented.
