Texas sheriff who won $85 million lottery jackpot arrested for tampering with video evidenceReply
I don't know anything other than what I've read in this article; certainly there is enough in it for readers to argue one position or another either in support of the prosecution or in support that he is being persecuted. The adage that most likely applies, however, is when you mix politics with anything, you get politics. Truth, justice, and the American way certainly has gone off the rails in so many ways.

How is this a story? Ridiculous. Should we write an article praising every billionaire giving their fortune to their children?

NJ Lottery temporarily suspends sales and drawings for 5 Card Cash due to coronavirusReply
The facts in this article is the temporary suspension of the NJ 5 Card Cash sales and drawings because of the virus. Has nothing to do about expressing opinions, but if nobody can play the game, what is the relevance of saying the game sucks and/or should be discontinued?

ProbabilityReply
I agree however triples or quads are easier to think about. Remember that article you had about all those people winning in SC on 2222 i think it was?? Not that it has any better chance of winning but it is tracked by more people. Maybe this could indicate a methodology where you take numbers that have a similar hit and skip range like triples taken in groups of 10. Probably already thought of ,back tested and either proved not to be of much use or no one is saying anything :)

When will the Corona Virus hit LP?Reply
The pangolins got a pass, not guilty. I saw the part about our funding the lab study on Tucker who does a pretty good job of getting things right. Not a big fan of any of the channels, they all make stuff up or lie by omission. He cut the CDC budget they screech. No, he raised the CDC budget. Actually he cut the next year's rate of increase. Say every year their budget goes up a million, and he cuts that in half, so it is cut for next year and raised too. While back on this thread I posted

Update: Every US state lottery's COVID-19 responseReply
Excellent article. Skimming through all the states impacted I did not like Idaho's lottery saying the Lottery will consider extending claiming periods for all winning tickets impacted by closures . Either you do or you don't, not a good time for indecisiveness.
