I'm beginning to think only lucky people win the lottery. Maybe I'll be lucky and live for 80+ years or win a lottery jackpot or both. Congratulations to the winner.

Turn the 6 upside down to make a 9? Clap your hands 10 times and do a dance around the slips before handing them to the store clerk? I usually only clap them 4 times and then hop on one leg and kick with the other. Maybe I should switch legs.

Now you have to figure out which one to change!

One digit?

One number

Gosh, it's the one change that bothers me. I'm afraid if I make a change, my original numbers will be drawn!

Yes, never give up. Let's see...1989 to 2007 = 18 years. So I am way past due

Robinson's sister, Beverly, began playing five of the six numbers when Lotto began in 1989. After she stopped playing, he decided to play her numbers with one change. And as they say, the rest is history .

Never give up--- never , ever give up
