I am in the minority who said I'll think about it . Of course, my wiser side of me is telling me to just keep it quiet and on the downlow so I can have peace in my life. But since I plan to travel extensively when I win, I wouldn't mind sharing that aspect with the world. Of course, I would shoot it in public places...like the airport. I would even see if I could commandeer the use of a frequent flyer lounge before normal operating hours so as to provide a nice backdrop. Since I would not have m... [ More ]

I never looked at it that way, Larry. That's a novel idea.

And it would be a good way for me to showcase some of my interpretive dance talents.

I've always wanted someone to film my Insane Pelican Dance so I can see what it is.

I'm told I only do it when I'm hammered out of my skull, pukin' through the nose, drunk.

They tell me it's really something to see though.

I would try to stay as anonymous as possible. Maybe tell my mom and that's about it.

Low key is the key.

Of course this would only apply to millions of dollars. I don't mind when people find out I hit the pick 3 or pick 4.

Even if I ever played and hit the Cash 5, and especially the Pick 6, I wouldn't tell anyone.

Basically I would narrow it down to over $5,000 I wouldn't tell anyone, lol.

I intend to move to the neighborhood Osama Bin Laden lived in for 9 1/2 years before the U.S. Intellegence was able to find him.

I figure if it took the U.S. Government that long to find Bin Laden in Pakistan, then all the money grubbing moochers that believe I should share with them doesn't stand a chance of locating my monkey butt.

She was on the David Letterman Show (when it was still on NBC, so a LONG time ago! 1990's? 1980's?). I always wondered what happened to her (and her kid - and her ex-boyfriend/father of the baby). After that, they would usually have the big winners on his show.
