Apparently New York doen't have PB...sitiing here in New Delhi I didn't know that till yesterday...which would be the closest place to buy from outside NY...sorry but I'm not very familiar with the geography of the area....

Yes, I do know PTS is there....

Did you guys watch the lunar eclipse............astrologically speaking, it is supposed to effect the various sun signs..someone's luck is going to change dramatically for the better.

Todd, this bit is for you and many of the others such as Chewie and Jack who are often posting msgs...its you guys who make this site a very interesting one. So, its not surprising the membership is increasing pretty rapidly.

catch up with you all later.....

Every time the jackpot reaches an incomprehensible number, I start dreaming of the impossible, and how to get closer to it. I keep a shortcut to the links that list those things I would never have a possibility of achieving - without the B-I-G bucks:

American Express Black Centurion Card:

Part of the fun is the what if..................... I think it is great that those who wish to can dream.....................  When I was younger I too would dream of what I might do with B.I.G Bucks................. Now I just would be happy to be able to have a modest home in a warmer climate and maybe a newer Vehicle............... Do I have any expectations? No not really.............. but I still play............... After all hope springs eternal................... Good Luck to all that play and dream

I don;t think that American Express issues out the black card anymore.

Bummer - just when I was about to became eligible. What's Martha using, VISA? I already have a VISA Check Card, I wonder how it works with a $165M cap on it.

The web shows that the American Express Centurion is still in use, a review dated in Spetember comments on it: http://www.reviewcentre.com/reviews56231.html

It if you look it up on the AmEx site, you will not find it as an option. It is by invitation only.

How do you acquire a Centurion card? First, apply for an AMEX Platinum card, if you don't already have one. Then use it frequently, especially for any travel that you book and for any expensive purchases that you make. Above all, pay ALL your bills on time. Then be patient. Don't call them. They'll call you. Actually, you'll receive an invitation in the mail if you're lucky. The AMEX Centurion Card is by invitation only. Don't worry. If you're offered one, it means you CAN afford it.

With $165M plus, I can afford it - and I will ask for it. Betcha they offer one in a hurry! I don't see AmEx turning down a chance at a piece of the pie. A million dollar deposit should ensure my card being hand delivered that very day.

I hope the jackpot rolls over and breaks the North American jackpot record holder of 363 millions set by Mega Millions [formely The Big Game]. Lots of people are going to gamble with the largest jackpot in PB history.

I don't care if it rolls or not, although it would be nice. I just want to win it! =)

You realize that if it rolls on Wendsday that the pot will be 365 but still below the record thanks to Powerballs inflated annuity. The cash prize will be around 176 million which may only place it as the third largest unless it's more than 176.7 million. The only record Powerball seems intrested in is the largest second prize.

This week will probably be the week that it Will be hit...............imagine the lines ........... Personally I hope that it is hit by several players rather than just one....................... I like Power ball because of the PP option so I do play it more than MM at least those in Texas have a choice.

Nothing personal, but I don't want to share MY millions with a stranger. Never had the opportunity to give away millions of dollars, but instinct tells me it would not make my day!

lol! None Taken Chewie....... ............... if it is to be a single winner then I hope it is you........................... but only after me <<<<  no real expectations of hitting

I don't think I would mind sharing such a large pot at all.  I mean that's a lot of money and I certainly would find a way to spend it in whole or in part.  My brother is a truck driver and I've instructed him to purchase a ticket in every little remote town he passes through over the next few days. 

Got my fingers crossed that we win!

Hi,

When the jackpot is such large ....I wish it will split to at least two person ( even it is me!).

One winner with the whole bag like this is "not wrong" but it's a pain for the rest ...I think!!
