I thought the Beach Boys wrote and recorded the little old lady and saw where Jan and Dean recorded fun fun fun . Now I know way too much about the Beach boys and Jan and Dean.

This album which I had when I was a kid has Little Old Lady From Pasadena . It was a live concert they recorded. No, they didn't write it, but they performed it at a concert which was recorded and sold as an album.

Fun, Fun, Fun ( Brian Wilson , Mike Love ) 2:26 The Little Old Lady (from Pasadena) (Don Altfeld, Jan Berry , Roger Christian ) 3:00 Little Deuce Coupe (Brian Wilson, Roger Christian) 2:27 Long, Tall Texan (Henry Strezlecki) 2:32 In My Room (Brian Wilson, Gary Usher ) 2:25 Monster... [ More ]

Looks like you confused the Little Old Lady from Pasadena with And we'll have fun fun fun now that daddy took the T-bird away by the Beach Boys. Jan and Dean recorded Fun fun fun about 20 years after the Beach Boys.

Both sounds were very similar and about Southern California and very easy to confuse over 50 years later.

ALTADENA = 1+12+20+1+4+5+14+1 = 58 -- California has 58 counties

15 West Woodbury Road = 243 -- 243 = 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 -- also 2 x 4 x 3 = 24

With a little creativity and a lot of free time, you could make any number seem significant.

wander73 — Wed, 09 Nov 2022 18:35:42 GMT

No its not. because lots of people on here don't see the real truth. When the numbers were drawn I knew right away something was up. Look on my topic. if you think this was only once you're mistaken. The same as you go to a casino, they can change the algorithm. People can do what they want, cant tell people nothing, the same as everyone that votes, the opposite happens.

Super cool advice but I'll continue to buy my one ticket every time the lottery jackpot passes $650 million. I usually spend less than $50 per year on lottery tickets.

The worst and horrible cheating game i ever seen. Prople need to wake up and see what's really going on here. All i can say is, save your money and put it away. If you can manage your money correctly. You don't need to play the Lottery. You will save alot over the year's. Good luck

It is funny how I can jump into a Maddog PB thread and post numbers and do better than some people who claim to see things.

Well, my friend I hear you. Trust me, you are not alone on that.

But on the other hand, even if the lottery rigged. Let's suppose it is. There is still a chance somebody get paid at least second tier prizes.

I for one, don't know where else can I get a million if not in a lottery. I've tried working, still do, but it doesn't pay nearly as much.

Ok.

11/7 is the 311th day of the year. 311 is both a band and a useful telephone number to call if a street light burns out. In Europe, 11/7 is written 7/11, which is a good place to get a slushie and a lottery ticket.

May this sacred knowledge bring you good fortune.

On 9/28, the Powerball grew to 322 million. The Powerball for the first draw was 11. The Powerball for the second draw was 8.

Now, as far as the glitch in whatever system, that transpired along with the reset to $20M( not $40M), You PB leaders can cancel my participation card until the cash value reaches $400M.

I'd be happy with $20million. Lately, I've been playing 2 tickets for Powerball but when the jackpot started getting higher, I started buying a few more tickets. This morning, I bought 5 additional tickets just in case it rolled again so I could avoid the lines if it rolled again. The retailers were selling Powerball tickets but the tickets didn't have the jackpot amount printed on them yet because it hadn't been determined if there was a winner.

According to the California Lottery website, disclosure laws require the lottery to publicize the winner's full name and the name and location of the business that sold the winning ticket .

But from what I read, they won't identify the lottery that needed more time . And this isn't the first because on August 23, 2022 the two lotteries needing additional processing time were never identified.

If I were the winner of this billion dollar jackpot I would NEVER come forward, what a huge safety risk. I understand all of this drawing delay is sus, but it is way too dangerous for the winner to come out publicly. They wouldn't last long.

Comment #17

goldfish777 — Tue, 08 Nov 2022 19:26:40 GMT

I think the reason why California has so many jackpot winners is because it's one of the most heavily populated states (MORE PLAYERS). With it's higher cost of living, residents tend to spend more money on everything including lottery. I hope that ONE ticket is a group of hard working people that could really benefit from a huge windfall! Congratulations

The gas station that sold the winning ticket in Altadena is along a commuter route very close (by CA standards) to the Jet Propulsion Laboratory. Did a brainiac who works there crack the lottery and get some tickets on the way to work? Too much of a coincidence for me. Please pass the tin foil.

Around the United States, millions of people had to wait an extra ten hours last night to find out if they won the unbelievably massive Powerball jackpot, due to one unnamed state's inability to deal with the huge amount of ticket sales data.

When the drawing did finally occur Tuesday morning, it turns out that just one ticket sold in California matched all six numbers drawn and won the entire jackpot.
