golfer1960 — Thu, 09 Aug 2012 11:52:13 GMT

Ok, nobody won. I can't believe it. When I saw the numbers I thought someone would hit it.

$253M!!! I'm excited all over again

IPlayWeekly — Thu, 09 Aug 2012 10:40:52 GMT

I got 2 white numbers last night, which is nothing. Not sure if I'm gonna play for Sat's drawing. Been sucking at PB for a few mths

Comment #120

dognabit — Thu, 09 Aug 2012 04:11:32 GMT

I know it's posted. The reason why was surprised is because the odds are slightly greater to get the pb+1 as opposed to just the pb.

Not saying I should be able to retire off it, but a buck or two more would be nice

Comment #119

RJOh — Thu, 09 Aug 2012 04:04:23 GMT

Didn't use to be that way, it just when they increased the prices they increased the amount for matching the PB and not the amount for matching the PB+1. It's posted on the websites so you shouldn't be surprised.

THRIFTY — Thu, 09 Aug 2012 03:59:47 GMT

Time to renew the dream on Saturday 08/11/2012. Yes I do play and I feel the same way you do about not winning the jackpot or a second prize. I will play the powerball again someday. Good luck.

Why is pb+1 the same as just pb

I just checked by 2 tickets. Nothing. Since I didn't win anything I hope it rolls.

golfer1960 — Thu, 09 Aug 2012 03:31:23 GMT

Dang it! The numbers are all low (birthday numbers). I think someone is going to hit it tonight! I had the PB only (#12) so I won $4.00. I'm so pissed

Comment #112

golfer1960 — Thu, 09 Aug 2012 03:24:18 GMT

Just curious Thrifty, do you ever by PB or MM tickets? I ask because it sounds like you think we are wasting our money.

OMG Pia, I love you more!!

These are modified bumper cars from the amusement park in Asbury Park, NJ (from my childhood). How creative and wonderful! Some people are just geniuses! I'd love to drive one to see what if feels like.

Jill34786 — Thu, 09 Aug 2012 02:34:59 GMT

I believe the LP also had a Mega Million 250k winner earlier this year, I think he was from Louisiana.

Anything can happen so the chance of someone here hitting any of the jackpots is as good as anybody else...very slim chance but still possible.

Comment #108

weshar75 — Thu, 09 Aug 2012 02:18:47 GMT

Lottery Post has a winner of powerball's second prize $200,000. So your statement is wrong and you should believe that maybe some day a jackpot winner will be here too.-weshar75

Comment #107

RJOh — Thu, 09 Aug 2012 02:12:52 GMT

LP members probably account for less than 1% of PB players so they're not even a good sampling for studying. Anything can happen and most likely will.

Comment #106

THRIFTY — Thu, 09 Aug 2012 02:01:54 GMT

The Powerball jackpot will not be won tonight. I have never seen anybody winning at least $10k on lottery post.

golfer1960 — Wed, 08 Aug 2012 20:41:00 GMT

Hey Cletus, its called a The Brutsch Mopetta (only built in 1957-58). It's not really my car but I thought it was unique.

Here's what I found out on Wikipedia:

The Br tsch Mopetta was an egg-shaped, single-seat, three-wheeled microcar designed by Egon Br tsch (who also designed the Spatz Kabinenroller) in 1957 as Br tsch Mopetta using a 50 cc ILO V 50 engine and an open roadster type glass fiber body. Only 14 were built.

A single wheel was in the front. The car was only 67 inches (170 c... [ More ]

Ford made a Falcon here from 1960 to 1970, a little compact car.

Seems like they're all little compact cars now though compared to what they used to be, even the Cadillac.

Good! A decent digitial camera does not cost much and most photographers end up with several cameras. Having a good eye and instinct for this sort of stuff is 90% of the battle (and lots of people do not have it). Go for it.

I have wanted a Bentley since I was very young.

After actually sitting a few Bentleys, I understand that they are works of extraordinary craftsmanship.

Nothing like the real thing!

The people at Bentley Pittsburgh are very nice. Not the least bit pretentious or condescending

Very classy looking golfer! Amazing how far they have come since the original Taurus day-viewed back in 84 I like the white color scheme.

The interior is also very roomy, comfortable and futuristic

With a little good luck DP, maybe you'll be driving that Bentley out of their showroom later in the week.

I'm sure they would appreciate the extra space that would give them, to replace it with another Bentley Beauty.

The nice people at Bentley Pittsburgh let me sit in any car that was in the showroom ............. very nice people considering that they knew that I couldn't afford the cars! And a 59 year old guy can get in and out of one without hurting himself ........

If you sit inside one of these, you know that they are not ordinary automobiles ..............

golfer1960 — Tue, 07 Aug 2012 00:14:14 GMT

Hey Grovel, I don't blame you, and you'll be able to afford it too! With $212M you'll be able to buy one of Donald Trumps apartments in Trump Towers.

NYC is beautiful and you'll never run out of things to do and people to see! Beautiful people at that

I hear ya girl!!!! I agree about traveling. I work in the tennis business but if I won I wouldn't open a tennis club because I want to travel the world and play golf and tennis. Maybe even go to Margaritaville!

I didn't know that horses show emotion. When I was a child I used to watch a TV show called Mr. Ed . Mr. Ed was the horse who could speak and had a sense of humor. Great show.

Horses do show love. They can be very dog like. My daughter's horse has a sense of humor and make faces at you if you eat her jelly beans. Had another horse who loved the little kids and would bury his head in their arms, close his eyes, and sigh (his back measured at 17hands or 5'8 tall).

I've watched National Velvet! Great movie. Have you seen International Velvet? It's about Velvet's granddaughter.

Margaritaville is wherever the fun is happening. And no horse farms for me. What a damper... [ More ]

It is good to come back to LP isn't it? We all have something in common that only we can share and understand: we have PB and MM DREAMS! We have a great cast of characters here. After a hard day of work, I can't wait to log on to LP to see what is happening.

Yeah, I guess falling from a horse is painful. Don't you fall and mess up that pretty face!

I haven't spent much time with horses but they are beautiful animals. They look you right in the eye, you know. Is it theraputic to care for them or do they show love like dogs do?

The ground and I don't agree because I don't bounce very well these days. Horses are great therapy for both body and soul. And I do like being around the horses and watching others jump them.
