I will believe this only if I see it on a actual ballet. Why is the Senate

oppose to scratch offs. If they make the games interesting the prizes

worth playing for people will buy them.

teacake58: Your post made my day. Do as I say, not as I do is what some of them live by. Come to the casino in S. Indiana and the number of KY tagged cars far outweighs IN tagged vehicles ALL the time. So glad KY has a lottery @ least.

music* would be perfectly content with a small win of a million or 2 on the lottery. There is no need in my life for those megajackpots. OTH though if it were to happen, so be it

Power Ball came to California in the Spring of 2013, I believe. As to Bible thumpers, I prefer those over criminals. Criminals continue ruining life for the innocent.

Bleudog101, are you ready for the reality of having millions of dollars at your disposal? Jack Whitaker did not set goals for his child and grandchild. He must have had personal and business goals in the past that helped him create a thriving business before he won.

True enough. Don't forget you are in a progressive state and these Bible thumpers have a different mindset than that of an average Californian!

Bleudog101, It usually takes more than a year to get a lottery going after a vote by the people.

At least it is not dead and they are still talking about it.

Go Power Ball and Mega Millions

I'll believe it when I see it. No Christmas present this year for Alabamans this year.
