Virginia woman dreams of Obama, wins lotteryReply
Q: Did George Washington have wooden teeth? A: He had several sets of false teeth over the years, but they were not made of wood. For at least one set, Washington's dentist, Dr. John Greenwood, used a cow's tooth, one of Washington's teeth, hippopotamus ivory, metal and springs. The teeth fit poorly. (courtesy Mount Vernon) Link here to a photograph of a set of Washington's dentures. (courtesy of the Smithsonian Institution) google is helpful. i also found an article that said

Ct. man claims he lost $254M Powerball ticketReply
Just read this in another article: The sanitation worker who allegedly lost the ticket, a 51-year-old West Side resident, has been searching through the garbage to find it; He's not sure when he bought the ticket, what any of the numbers were and, since he couldn t produce the ticket, he couldn t definitively say he had won for sure; He said friends told him he won but wouldn't say how they knew.

Irish NY lottery winner's estranged husband wants halfReply
Thanks for posting this article, Todd Ms. Daly sounds like a very decent woman with a strong work ethic who just wants to take care of her three young children. IMO this is a case of delayed gratification - I predict the following: her attorney will continue to milk the case for billable hours; her husband will end up with half the money (and be broke in a year or two) ; but in the end Ms. Daly will move back to Ireland with her children and live a very comfortable, financially

Lottery ticket sales increase across countryReply
Well, since the article claimed (and I agree) that buying a lottery ticket, each draw, is considered cheap entertainment expense it would have been good to see what other comparable, cheap entertainment expenses Cornell listed in their study. In my community, there is an old Cinemark 10 screen theator that charges $1 to anyone to most any movie at any time on Tuesdays (and senior citizens are also welcome to pay $1 for the same on Mondays). Two additional cheap entertainments I can think

Lotto winner shot by deputies wins settlementReply
I read the article, sounds like both parties are lying , the cops should be fired and charges brought for destroying evidence, The victim, clearly needs to take responsibility for his own stupidity, he went out into the dead of night with a loaded weapon, hid in the bushes and laid in wait, you only do that if you have intentions to harm, clearly, I believe people have the right to defend their home and property, but he went about it the wrong way. Growing up in Detroit , I have witnessed ma

Mathematics and the LotteryReply
The implication of your statement/question here is that there is some REASON or CAUSE that resulted in these data. Since I don't think there is ANY reason or cause responsible, and YOU FERVENTLY BELIEVE THAT THERE IS... You said RB28 always has a 1 in 39 chance of being drawn and now you're ignoring the statistic that proves RB28 had zero chance of being drawn in the last 270 drawings. For someone tauting the gambler's fallacy, it sure looks like by that statement you're trying to convince

W.V. Lottery ends 3-year losing streakReply
Yeah, understood, Todd, but the article reminded of some of the stunts casinos pull. Let's say you have a casino that grosses $3.2 million in June of 2009. Then let's say the same casino only groses $3.1 million in June of 2010. So for the quarter ending June of2010 they stiff their employees on profit sharing saying business is down . But all those at the very top get theirs, of course. Let's call it voodoo accounting. rdgrnr, Well said. Not just gov't though. A few years after

Massachusetts Lottery to end TV broadcastsReply
rdgrnr says in response, Thanks for your attempt to circumvent truth by a deft comparison of apples and oranges by the liberal husband and wife team of SNOPES when neither of the two (apples or oranges) had anything to do with the topic at hand, Nancy. But it's the thought that counts. Inasmuch as the article I linked to deals directly with your phoney claim that lawmakers excluded themselves from Obamacare, it is precisely on point! Since you reject the Snopes team, perhaps you'll co

A Wheel Question...Reply
Basically you're saying because these guy write gaming articles for the Casino City Times, they are THE casino industry experts. All you need is the courage to face the possibility that Don, the two Michaels and me are right, and you are wrong. I'm assuming you're saying I'm wrong about their credentials because you read their articles, found them fascinating and I find those articles useless information to me. The difference between you and me is that I read other articles written on th

Atheist converts after mock prayer to win $1M lottery is answeredReply
The only people that law is going to affect is libs That doesn't even make any sense. Read the article - don't just look at the pretty pictures! Unless you just want to remain stupid? Come back when you understand. And while you are at it...try calling people by their proper names. You are the one that keeps bringing up queer stuff. Everything was quiet until you got sober and found your keyboard. You do nothing but throw insults around. Everytime I try to picture all of the people
