That oil is burning up, Kola! Hope I don't run out! Thanks for stopping in. And now is a new discovery for you folks to try. Duh! I didn't even think about this but when we are writing out our first string of numbers we have one of each, right?

Pick 3 Strings!!Reply
Nice to hear from you CW! The latest news on the strings is that I have been fooling around with plussing and minusing them.

Andy Rooney: Lotteries and lottery players are stupidNews Story
Editor: The following is a weekly 60 Minutes commentary by CBS News correspondent Andy Rooney, originally broadcast on March 19, 2006, and re-broadcast last night. The study that Rooney quotes, saying that poor people gamble the most, is completely false. All credible studies show that all demographics gamble roughly the same amount. Rooney's commentary is shown here to illustrate the ignorant and myopic arguments of some anti-lottery critics. I suppose it's true that I'm too easily annoye
