Longtime Director of N.H. Lottery to retire

Why you ask? Because it's the work of the devil! That's why!

What Is Your Real Profession??
In the daytime I'm a brain surgeon, and at night I'm the senior program director of computer system design for the large Hadron collider.
On the weekends, I get paid to design and build 30 million+ dollar telescopes for scientists in 17 different locations around the world.
I'm in the process of finalizing the last touches to my fully operatable time machine, and a patent in about a week from now.

Lottery directors do tend to bring a lot of old habits with them when they swtich states. Just look at how Rebecca Paul, or Hargrove, or Throatwarbler-Mangrove, started up the TN Lottery, a ton of similarities to Georgia.
