  We went to a place we normally play today to play the Sat. Night state Lotto - and there on the counter was a live Pick 3 ticket- $1 Straight Box Evening 419.

  I told the clerk someone left a live ticket there and he said he knew who.  

  Then I said it might be an omen, so I played it too. Heck, you have to play something like that, right?

  The drawing?

  1....9....0

  Moral of the story, it's just luck. You might see an "omen" but you still have to be lucky - or not!

  

   PS

  This was at the same place a few months ago I had seen a license plate:

  Minnesota

  PAY 247

  and 247 hit in Minnesota! 

  Those who run the lotteries love it when players look for consistency in something that's designed not to have any. So many systems, so many theories, so few jackpot winners. 

  

  There is one and only one 'proven' system, and that is to book the action. No matter the game, let the players pick their own losers.

  LOL! The first number I ever hit was off a license plate and I haven't hit off a license plate since.

  I guess if it is for you to win, you'll win!

  Until a few days ago I gave absolutely no credence whatsoever to signs or omens.

  I met my x-wife back in 1970 in San Antonio and she lived at 222 Fantasia. We were married for 34 years, and while teaching I constantly referred to the number 222. The number almost became an obsession to me.

  We divorced in May of 2006. I try to erase the last 34 years from my memory and psyche to erase or reduce the pain. I have been successful, but found myself thinking about her a few days ago on November 19.

  We were married on August 19, 1972. During those 34 years, we obviously celebrated each wedding anniversary, and had  a wonderful meal at a great restaurant. I don't recall when, but we use to greet each other on the 19th of each month with, "Happy monthly anniversary".

  So, on November 19 - three days ago - there I was remembering that my x lived at 222 Fantasia, and here it was November 19th. I am such a terrible number picker, and very unlucky, I use the picks of RAVEN62, BLACKIE, MAZK, or LUCKY. I noticed that at least two of my favoriete posters and selected 111. It still did not click!

  222 hit and I am still lamenting.

   

  Morale - if you get a sign or omen - maybe it is somebody trying to tell you something.
