    Ok, I just did a search to see if a thread had been started about the Megamillions jackpot. How about this for a coincidence? The last time it was at $325 million was in 2007. This Saturday will be exactly 2 years from the date the last thread was posted. And guess who made the last thread? :eek:

    Once again I ask, "who's in a pool...for disappointment? *raises hand*

    i just noticed the user text under my moniker in that thread.

    macalu is Aaron Brooks -- will become famous soon enough.

    :confused: i have no idea what that's supposed to mean and why it's only there in that instance.

    Interesting: why seven tickets? Do you consider that number lucky, or is that the change back after a diet soda or something?

    Don't mean to pry, just seems that most people seem to buy either one or two, or multiples of 5 or 10.

    Okay, cool; thanks for the reply. (That's the kind of thing that would keep me from going to sleep in a few hours, had I not asked.)

    ENGLISH MOTHER****ER! DO YOU SPEAK IT?

    Haha, that is awesome.


    Umm. I'll buy knowing that I won't win. With that money, I am going to buy the Houston Dynamo, and buy Fat Ronaldo.
