  Here's the deal.   At work today, I bought a Pay Day ticket from the vending machine.  Absolutely none of the surface had been scratched off.  I scratched it, and it was a $10 winner.  I went to cash it in at the end of my day, and the machine said it had already been cashed.  I went to a convevnience store and got the same message.  I'm waiting to hear from the lottery on this, since it may have happenend to someone else.

  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.

  I don't know much about vending machines.  I'm not sure who stocks them. (I assume the retailer)  Maybe the store didn't validate the book of tickets before stocking the machine?  That or a computer glitch may be the cause.  Of course a computer glitch could mean anything.  I hope you are able to collect.  If not...  At least you didn't win $100 or more.  That would be a tough pill to swollow.

  How are you going to win if you don't play?
