Wow that's a good lump sum. In Illinois or Missouri it would be closer to 3 million.

Sorry to disappoint everyone, but unfortunately it's not me.

I live in Brooklyn, NY, I'm not married and my name isn't Leon.

Will we? Denial sometimes is stronger than an admission GB.Remember when you were a kid, and Mom would ask you Did you eat one of the cookies? .. and with a straight face you would say No. All the while the crumbs around your mouth on your shirt says otherwise?
