I've seen a bunch of interesting names here. Some with something to do with the lottery and some don't.
Mine is Wolverine's real name from X-Men. I'm a big comic book fan. I also figure out he must be lucky because he hasn't died once (in main continuity).
Anyone else?

I'm a Nascar fan.....and my favorite driver is Reed Sorenson, who drives the #41 for Chip Ganassi Racing with Felix Sebates in the Sprint Cup Series. That's where mine comes from.  A Stocking Stuffer couple of $500,000 Player's Club scratchers: $10
A feast of chicken tenders and fries with wimpy, tongue torch, and nuclear sauces at Zaxby's: $14
Airfare and hotel in March 2007 to see The Price Is Right before Bob Barker retired: $600-something
Watching Reed Sorenson get into victory lane for the 1st time in 2009: Priceless

The DoctorEw part is for my first name (Just abbreviate the word "Doctor"). The 220 is for February 20th, my date of birth. I finally got the old domain name back. Go to my website at www.dr-ew.tk. There's still some funny stuff there.

From Wikipedia:
Uff da (can also be spelled uff-da, uffda, uff-dah, oofda, ufda, oofta or ufta) is an exclamation of Norwegian origin that is relatively common in the Upper Midwestern states of the United States. It roughly means "drats," "oops!" or "ouch!", especially if the "ouch!" is an empathetic one. In Norwegian Midwestern USA culture, "Uff Da" translates into: "I am overwhelmed." It has become a mark of Scandinavian roots, particularly for people from Minnesota.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uff_da
I'm originally from Minnesota and one of my parents was of Norwegian origin. I often heard the expression "uff da!" from the older generation. I thought the id seemed appropriate for use on a lottery web site because of the number of times I buy tickets and win nothing, so in this case I'm using it to mean "drats!"

I Submitted a system to the publication LottoStats in NY using the moniker MysteryMan, and the number 424 happens to be the best double combo in NY since the new drawing machines began.
