Poll question: Did You Buy A Powerball Ticket?
I did. Put in $3 with a group at work.

1. My husband is on his way out right now to pick up pizza...
He'll get a couple Powerball tickets too.

We won't win, of course, but it's fun to dream.

2. It's been snowing here in NC so I didn't fancy the drive.
No lottery here in NC yet. Hopefully by the end of the year, if the nutcases don't stop it.

Mark.

5. Is the snow sticking where you are?
It was really pretty here (chapel hill) earlier while it was snowing somewhat consistently.

7. Sorry nope nothing really stuck.
My son was so disappointed. Last time we had some "snow", we had enough to scrape off of the car and the minivan and make a mini-snowman. Nicolas even made mummy put the snowman in the freezer so he stuck around a bit longer. Fortunately he forgot about him - and he's now with the snowmen in the sky again.

Mark.

6. yep
Don't know if I won yet (haven't checked the tix)

My wife and I agree, if we won we would try to keep it a secret. And probably move somewhere we could be relatively anonymous. Like midtown Manhattan or something.

8. I bought one for the first time ever, and I live in Lincoln Nebraska.
I used a coupon that came in the mail to get one for free with the purchase of a $2 scratch ticket.

However I wasn't able to get it until I got off work, so it's next Wednesday's Powerball that it's good for.

The buy 2 get 1 free coupon and all the hype made me do it.

Damned waste of money no doubt.
