Well Self, we have been in a pick 3 slump for five days now. Can't find a lead anywhere---nothin---nada---nyet!  Patuey (spit)! @#%$^&@!! and then some....what do we do? Wait for some more spit! No really, when a slump in the numbers racket occurs, (the best thing to do is go take a good dump, just kidding(?) you have to ride the waves of depression and wait. Aggravating as it is there is no choice in the matter. What causes a 'slump' is anybodys guess; my thoughts are that a ballset changeover has occured and when this happens, the darling little ping-pong balls are allowed to be truly random not enhanced. Same appears to be true with electronic calling too. How? Simple...programs have a habit of going bananas when over used, so...a new program is either written or installed to compensate. Your own programs are witness to that fact...don't you have frame freezes or messages telling you that the poor pc can't find something and refuses to co-operate, sticks out it's 'tongue' then plays innocent in a dumb way? (You are the operator dummy, do something!) Right? Your nose will grow if you say otherwise. Go do something else, won't do any good to fret...been there and done that! As soon as 'control' has been reestablished you will be in business again so that you may accrue a few more wrinkles and grey hairs or lose more short follicles.

  "Patience is virtue," so it has been said. {}You can see my thoughts but then that's me!
