Good bye
This might not be the right forum for a general good-bye message, but I hope it is fine. It is the forum that I frequented the most.Due to personal issues (and as you know finances is always half of the personal issues) I have to retire from the lottery business. I guess I hoped for a miracle, which did not happen. The last three months were just too much. So I go.I want to thank Lucky, Emily, Todd, John, Al, Bill and everyone here for that support and their interest in my ideas and all.The web
