Neither rain, nor snow, nor sleet, nor hail, nor dark of night, nor lotto winner shall keep a milkman from his appointed rounds. I, however, would not work my current job if I won enough to retire on. Of course if I had a job I actually liked, that would be different. Either way though, I would need something to occupy my time or I'd go crazy. I'm thinking volunteer work. Who knows.

Quick-picks having a good run over long time favorite numbers. I must also continue to remind myself that the recent Idaho Powerball win shows that trusty albeit dusty four year old number sets can bring it home as well.

A couple stories recently about lucky folks who ditched the tried-and-false numbers for a QP just in time.
