Not feeling lucky??
by piscianemperor
Don’t let that bog you down. You never know, it might just be your luckiest day.
I was reading random news today, and I came across this piece- Apparently, a group of seven workers in the state information technology department at Albany, playing regularly through their office jackpot pool, hit the $319 million Mega Millions jackpot. There was however, an eighth guy who used to pool money with them regularly, but had opted out that particular week because “He wasn’t feeling lucky”. :D Ouch!!
$$$$$
Imagine that huh. After cutting out federal and state taxes, apparently its $19 million per head. Haha. If I would have been the guy who dropped out, I think I might have kissed ass and asked for a million or half!! I mean, cummon! :D That guy probably must have needed therapy after that.
What would you have done? I think we can have an interesting discussion here!
Seriously??? Poor sob!!
If I would have been in his place, I think would have had problems in the head. He probably gets too close to Jesus after this. :D
I doubt I would have ever been friends with those 7 blokes!
Hey! Can you post the link?
I would NEVER do that. Hmm. I don’t know what I would do, if I was the guy. I guess I would never make the assumption “Not feeling lucky” considering it was quite close!
Ohhh, did you return the projector? :-)
I am going as per the tags here! Do you play the lottery? :D I have tried my luck only once so far!

@Fez
That’s harsh man!! Not being friends at all??!

Ah, I think it was in my rss feed, but now that I google for it, here it is:

They probably might have been pooling money for years. Probably gave up on winning at the wrong time.
Which tag reminded you of that? ‘Cash’ -back? :D Yeah I did. Got all money back too. Nah, I have never played the lottery. YET ;)
Thanks!!
‘Cash’ and ‘Luck’ :-)
