  the odds are fifty fifty.

  Either its won or it grows.

  I think it will hit once more before the end of the year for PB.

  Mega will start the new year out with a nice little jackpot over the 100 mill mark :)

  Count your smiles.

  There isn't enough time for the jackpots to get to $300 million.  If nobody hits either jackpot from now until the last day in january, then it will come close.  People will be spending too much on holiday presents and expenses for trips.
  

  I've redone my website.  Go to www.dr-ew.com.  I kept a lot of the old stuff, and I've added some new stuff.  Look for more new stuff in the coming weeks.

  Hard call.  I am inclined to say no.  Leaning towards the holiday being an expensive one, with little money left over.  The heating bills, like the previous gas bills, are gong to impact.  Wifes are going to be upset with hubby spending money on the lottery options while the bills are increasing.  I am no longer married, and not hurting for the few dollars, but many are.

  I have personally cut back on the lottery.  These last two PB & MM have burned me out.  I think many feel the same way.  I have decided to go the "wait until the $250M level" before buying PB, and only spending a dollar a draw on MM.  If some one hits below those numbers, I'll change my position.  Until then, no more chasing the shiney lure.

    Yeah, I shall win Powerball soon too.  Powerball may have produced a record number of jackpot hits this year (for both PB and MM), but as long as I'm not one of those winners, it can never have one winner too many!!

    Anyway, I highly doubt any game will break $300 million by January.  I predict both games will be hit once more before then.

  Yeah this Holiday spending stuff is going to dampen all the (PB & MM) lottery players! I don't think either PB or MM is going to be at the 300 million dollar mark by January and if it does make it that high, it's going to have to be closer to the middle of January (maybe). 

  Keep dreaming the impossible dream, it just may come true!

  Middle of January, that would be near my birthday of the 20th!  I'll take the proceeds from a $300m Jackpot.  I should have won one of these two most recent ones.  But starting a new year and new birth year, I'll take it then.

  PB actually has a good chance of breaking its jackpot record next month, if nobody wins.
