Congrats to all of the winners!! I am glad to see a few Hoosiers coming out on top. I always said that if I ever win big...I will take care of my famiy and if a stranger or two ask for a helping hand and show me that they truly need the help then I would do so. I keep in my heart what we all have been taught, you never know when that stranger could be an angel from God, seeing if you are humble to man kind.Jasimine555
