I am CONVINCED only way you WIN BIG if they let you win!Reply
Considering the Hot Lotto fraud, numerous RNG issues, and other various glitches, it does make many wonder whether it's even worth playing various lottery games. Ball drawn games could be rigged in devious ways too involving computers. Even if all balls weigh practically the same (which is near certain, since they regularly check that), there could be other ways to rig the draw. In many instances, the balls contain RFID chips so each one can be individually tracked from a distance. Could the

British Columbia Lottery taking bets on US electionReply
I'm sure this was mentioned above because it seemed to be mighty important last night..and Hillary's shock and awe at Trump uttering the statement that he won't accept the results...or that he'd see after the election was like someone took all her money away! The cohorts were shocked too of course and Sheppard Smith/Fox didn't seem to like it either. But here we go - trump crude again..I know what he meant..for a very, very long time CNN has boldly been Pro-Hillary...there's

British Columbia Lottery taking bets on US electionReply
Hillary lost Secret Service because she's a rotten witch with a behind the camera persona which includes a filthy mouth, no class, no respect and no dignity. She's a witch by all definition, look at her face, she doesn't even have to open her big mouth. She's about as arrogant as you can get. When Bill told the Marine who served 8 years for his country and did 2 tours in Iraq to sit down because he wanted the truth about Benghazi, it shows you what type of couple they are..they w

2005? They dug up a video from 2005 and are making it relevant today? I'm not going to defend it. I don't like it either. I do think that the only apology he has to make is that he was recorded talking about it. You know there are women that must have lined up for him because of his money. And if you're all adults here, you know and have probably heard this kind of talk at some point in your life...maybe you used it yourself too. It's raw and raunchy and disgusting but to be shocked

Bill would send NC lottery winner info to food stamp officeReply
$2,250 s such a life changing amount! Wow kick them off benefits for the rest of their lives why don't you, North Carolina! If someone receiving food stamp benefits gets lucky with an extra dollar, let them for Pete's sake. Raise the threshold and eye up regular, repeat winners/abusers. Kick the ones deserving of termination off the books. An extra $100 a month isn't going to raise anyone's standard of living to a point where those that do not get benefits are suddenly in a role
