I can't get the link on the CBS page to play. Is it playing for you, if so...what media player? | | |

They only showed a few mnutes. The NJ Lottery guy started into how great they are and the news cut out. Never stuck around to meet the winners. CBS stated they would be on the noon broadcast - which could be any time within 12:00 to 12:30. I'm sure the reruns will be every where tonight.

Thanks for the link Todd...does anyone know if it was a quickpick or not?  | | |

I watched the newscast. No one asked if it was a Quick Pick, and they didn't say. I got the impression, the New York CBS news team wasn't too sure what the lottery was. Some kinda money winning thing. The concept of a Quick Pick was way over their head. The male member of the team had no idea of the type of place the winner bought the ticket. He thought it was a bar. The on-site woman stated she received a flyer, but had no idea of what it was about. Show up, smile, read the flyer, go to next disaster, or shooting, or stabbing. The woman did mention they would contribute to Katrina.

Haven't visited a bar since my quad-bypass several years ago. Nothing there that will increase my life.

I also haven't been to a bar in some time, even to play Quick Draw. I almost never drink anymore. | | |
