No?

Don't think I'm letting any little old ladies cut in front of me

Isn't that the shit. You be nice and let some old lady go ahead of you and then find out she won. I wonder if the old woman thinks about the person who let her go first. What a thing to have to think about, being the person who let her go ahead of them.

She'll find out who that nice person was and grace them some millions.

And if the person had a record for letting the machine pick the numbers, she should then consider giving the person half.

I know. Easy for me to say. But I think I might do that. Either that or just donate 90 per cent of it to shelters that care for abused animals.



Cher

popped out the same numbers for the person who let her go ahead of them.

will spit out different numbers because the amount of tickets being produces nationwide. Those numbers could have been mine in California if the guy didn't let her cut ahead.

Remember how I would always hang with your son, Spuds?

He was a party animal, that one.

...shows how morally corrupt our culture is.

Having a top prize of $500,000 would provide for 1,180 winners and spread the wealth around and improve the odds of winning for all those who bought tickets.

Economically, such a huge prize for one individual is equivalent to the vulture capitalist who buys a company, sells off the assets, fires the employees, and walks away with a half-a-billion dollars.

Or just shut them down?

A bigger criticism of Las Vegas is the waste of natural resources and the pollution created by placing the lavish surroundings in a desert environment.

Granted, the various state lotteries rake off 50% of sales...

wins, and the outcome of her new found wealth is still to be determined.

P.S. you suck at analogies

woyld lke them to, and not because they have not tried. There alk kinds of lottery ganes where a single winner wins a million bucks instead of hundreds of millions. Those games attract few players. Did YOU play those kinds of lottery games?

I'll win but I'll be too old for it to matter.

... who let let skip in line ahed of her.

Sounds like she cut in line in from of a mother and daughter. From what I have read, the clerk said the mother and daughter were next, but the mother and daughter were polite and said go ahead and help her first. Lets see if this human has it in her heart to extend the kindness back to the mother and daughter.

With "quick picks" the numbers are randomly generated at the time the clerk pushes the button. One microsecond either way and the winning numbers aren't generated.

If they were quick picks the mother and daughter would have no claim because if they hadn't let her cut in line they wouldn't have won anyway since the exact timing would not be the same and different numbers would have been generated.

If the winner had a bubble card filled in with numbers she had personally picked it doesn't matter where she went in line anyway since she would have picked the same numbers whether she was first or last.

their kindness didn't have any effect on her win -- her numbers were her numbers.

It is kinda corrupt in that Americana Way but let's enjoy what this woman is feeling. The good part seems to be that she is relatively stable, from what we've seen, and she was living in a very humble way.

Good for her.

" hey I got mine fuck you "

I too think that these mega jackpots are like our lack of civility and sounds like this will get very ugly like a lot of these big pay offs.
