Right now.

Those numbers last night could leave a person with the impression things are slipping back into behavior patterns I've been discussing on this blog.

13 numbers picked, bought 9 tickets.  4 of the 13 numbers hit as whiteballs.  I had the redball down as a whiteball, as well.

Meanwhile, PB jumps another $6 M lump, bringing that jackpot to something in the ballpark of $36m lump after taxes.  A goodly sum.

Some of you might find this interesting.... All the recent jackpots won numbers.  49 and 52 aren't on there, but the rest are, some conspicuously.  All those 27s dancing were the reason I had 4 whiteballs instead of 3 last night.
