Chinamen are the ones with the fortune cookies.

I got in a big fight in a sushi joint one night cuz I didn't know that.

So make a note of that.

Vietnam is one of the most rapidly growing nations in the world, economically speaking. Yeah, still if I were here at least I would try. But life is whole lot simpler over there and people do have different tastes.

The only threat Vietnam is facing is China. And they have been successfully defeating china many times.

She's destined to be a lottery winner. Indeed lottery is also a game of chance. Who would tell that her simple error will become her key to win the lotto

mainstream media kool-aid? Give me a break. I don't blindly follow any news service. I look at the facts regardless of who published it and I ask myself is it accurate? If they published it, they are responsible for the information and fact checking. If someone told me Abraham Lincoln was the first president of the United States and I decide not to check the facts and as a journalist I write a news story about how Abraham Lincoln was the first president of the United States and someone called me...

They were paraphrasing from the CALottery website here http://www.calottery.com/media/press-releases/press-release?Item={7CF5CA90-2039-4B21-B058-C18053FB2E28}

Le and a friend usually go together and buy their Lottery tickets at the same time, but yesterday, Le went by herself to purchase her usual $4 worth of POWERBALL and $1 in SuperLotto Plus from her local CVS Pharmacy.

If you would spend as much time using your brain as you do drinking the MSM kool-aid and dissing fox news, you might... [ More ]

I didn't know that fox news did the California Lottery publicity stories.

yeah, California only started selling Powerball less than a month ago so how can that be her usual? Sensationalism at it's best right here. Thanks fox news

I saw that and wondered the same thing. Exaggeration seems to be the in-thing in 2013.

I am happy for Ms Le. She can cut down on the time she works and spend it with her sons

Congrats to her, now time to get the hell out of California.

Le went by herself to purchase her usual $4 worth of Powerball

Is two weeks, three or four drawings really enough to call that usual

Single mother's simple error earns her $14 million lottery prize

Lottery Post — Mon, 06 May 2013 17:28:16 GMT

At the intersection of Fate and Lotto, Thuan Le made a very fortunate error.

The California single mother of four is thanking her lucky stars after mistakenly slipping an extra dollar into the self-service Lotto machine at her local CVS store in Mission Viejo.

That superfluous dollar wound up getting Le the SuperLotto Plus ticket holding the five winning numbers 5, 33, 25, 46, 32 plus the Mega number, 26, selected randomly in the April 24 drawing.

In all, Le won a $14 million jackpot.
