Man I am so bummed....just got home and saw that IL came in 926...a number short or long depending on how you look at it I guess.. Haven't had a chance to check the other states yet, but it's not looking good for me and the Easter picture folks. Lucky...I may need to borrow that old Brownie camera. Emily, I don't have an easter bonnet so I'm counting on you babe. Just picked up my older son from O'Hare and a vacation in MT with my sister and he says he'll run interference for me when I'm run...

Great. Something to improve my disposition. Since I didn't seem to get any offers to beat me with a stick (yet). I am sure your post made quite a few people laugh and brought smiles to their faces. So, even though I am still holding out for Ca tonight, let me be the first to let you off the hook if it doesn't play. Only because you made me laugh. But if the others don't let you off the hook I might just peek at the picture. lol After all, it is all in good fun. Deb

Thanks to all you guys for your support to keep me from becoming a spectacle...as Jackie Gleason used to say... I gotta big mouth . I checked my single pick from yesterday and although I was close in several states, the 386 did not come in anywhere in the US. After that I realized there only half as many drawings on Sunday so I'm getting a little nervous here.My other picks for tonight (box format) are 168-189-689. I'm hoping that if one of these falls, you guys will give me a break and I'll... [ More ]

Rick GYour comments brought out a lot of good ole memories for me and it looks like for almost everyone here at the forum. My folks had an old brownie camera and we would click away at Easter time with all 5 of my sisters smiling all over the place with all their matching purses and shoes. But since I was in the middle of my three brothers I kinda got the left overs from my older brother - did you ever have to wear left over shoes that were too big? I remember standing to get the picture taken... [ More ]

Hi Rick G:I'm willing to spend $2.00..... One dollar for the number (169). One dollar to see the picture if you don't win..... But trust me, the smile you gave everyone was priceless! LOLThanks for the visual

Hey there RickG,if you don't quit with the negative thoughts in front of your mirror, you will be right about not having a winning number. I don't know what you know about the forces of the mind but it's very powerful. The subconscious does not care or rationalize between positive thoughts and negative ones. What you think will happen if the thoughts are strong enough. Although you might look cute in your Shirley Temple suit.PS~ Don't forget to put on the large collar too!!! HAH, hah! Yes, I rem...

Emily, I saw that Lucky has 169 in his list so I'm hoping he's right. My 19 year old son won't come with me downtown as my bodyguard (do you blame him?) so I'll probably get my ass kicked at the train station before I get down there...my sister offered me her matching tu-tu to wear with the pink bonnet, but I don't think that will help matters much...It's too frilly and she couldn't iron the wrinkles out of it......

Emily, If I make it into the Tribune, I'll send you an 8 X 11 glossy. I'm going through my wardrobe now...will have to improvise on the short-pants suit but I think my sister will lend me her pink Easter bonnet and I have a great bow-tie for the outfit........please pray for me?Oh man..................................

Did your folks ever dress you up in a short-pants suit and make you pose in front of the house for pictures in the early 50's on Easter or some other dvent (Sometimes wearing a weird hat too)?Well I've had enough! I'm picking 169 to come in some order, ANY order, someplace in the U.S. of A., tomorrow, Sunday, 7/13, or I will put on my short-pants suit and wear a pink bonnet and walk around downtown Chicago during the morning rush hour!!!Please wish me luck or make arrangements for the photo...
