JXP: Maybe if you buy a bag of chocolate donuts, eat all of them and stand there beside the machine, you will get a chocolate buzz and misinterpret it as a sign from the lottery gods.

Perhaps I'll give in and buy 1 or 2 tomorrow before they sell out. I just haven't had one of those lucky feelings so I've gone to different stores this week. I stand by the terminal and try to get a vibe. Nothing happens..no bright lights, no spiritual music...no warm fuzzy feeling. Maybe I need to stop thinking about raffles and start dating again.

Nah, a raffle ticket will be a better gamble.

Just6, since the rules of the game award 10 lucky ticket holders one million each, indeed there will be 10 one million dollar winners.

You are indeed a master of the obvious.

I hope the tickets are sold out and 10 winners take home $1 million. This is a good story.
