  LOL...

  I know of only two ant and elephant stories. One my uncle used to tell me over and over and over again when I was about 5 years old, and the other is a dirty joke, which I can't write here...lol

  BTW...An elephant with it's trunk in the air signifies good luck.

  Which story is the one you're talking about?

  The dirty joke one!

  It involves a female elephant getting hit in the head with a coconut and falling down, a male ant climbing on top of the elephant and havine its way with her, and the elephant groans every time another cocunut falls on its head.

  And every time the elephant groans, the ant says.... 

  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.

  Well for me, I would look for a good German Shephard import that is protection trained.  Never know when some idiot would try to kidnap the family to get my riches. Besides, I have had several German Shephards in my lifetime and love the breed.

  I like canines but I want to travel when I win on Wednesday night the Powerball jackpot.  So I would not have time to care for the animal.-weshar75

  If you win the Powerball jackpot, you hire "pet nannies" for your pets so you can go on trips. Or you get a dog small enough to travel with you.  No stinky kennels for little Fe-Fe.

  I already have 2 Italian Greyhounds and horses (a baby and a retiree).  I'd probably take a few rescues to keep my retiree company when baby goes off to be professionally trained.

  Goodness....if you hit the JP, you would have the $$ to be able to charter/lease a private jet and take the pet with you.  At least that is what I plan.  Why have a pet/protector that you leave behind?  Just a thought.
