Ha Ha, I see what you are saying.

Did Rebecca demand that 2 easy, consecutive numbers be released so the payout would go up and ease the moaning of the people? Hmm....

When you stop the root of the problem I will start to play again.I will not continue to support the Lottery financially.You got to give a little to get a little.I feel sorry for the kids in this state I really do.Find a kid in your own hometown and help them,thats what I do now,the rewards are much greater.
