No, l am not advocating any such thing. Politicians like Religious figures should KNOW when to step down. Take Pope Benedict for example.

On 11 February 2013, Benedict unexpectedly announced his resignation in a speech in Latin before the cardinals, citing a lack of strength of mind and body due to his advanced age. His resignation became effective on 28 February 2013. He is the first pope to resign since Gregory XII in 1415, and the first to do so on his own initiative since Celestine V in 1... [ More ]

No pick 3 straight numbers in Illinois lottery in almost a year(11 months). This is very strange.

If Mitch can work he's colleagues to Give Tax cuts to the wealthy, he sure can do the right thing by coming up with another stimulus check rollout for those hit hard by the virus.

Was watching Guess whose coming to dinner a few weeks back what stood out was Sidney's Mom going one on one with Tracy * l think her saying something like what on earth happens to peoples brains when they get old?

* * That could be asked of Mitch others, on both sides of the aisle.

But MItch doesn't want to give out more stimulus checks and unless they do, sales will fall again. Wonder how many other states had increased sales because of the checks

Agreed, there is a lot of genuine anger about the jackpots being lowered without an adjustment in ticket price. Many people contact us every day about it. The longer the reduced jackpot rules are in effect, the more I personally agree with that anger.

Hopefully, the Powerball and Megamillion rules go back to normal soon.

Kentucky has had it's share of interesting winners. You can read about David Lee Edwards here on the Search box. His journey began on 2001. Just before 9/11.

Congratulations to KY for making the Lottery Post opening page

Like I told the retired Director of the KLC and Chip Polston I'm very luck to live in a progressive lottery state. I complimented them for having on-line sales and asked the Director (names aren't my strong point) if FL, where he came from had on-line sales=NO. Said my homestate of MA doesn't either. Know I'm rehashing old stuff here, but the KLC is very diligent and happy to see they are on the rebound.
