Just my little view on the way things work...

Today Could've Been The Day...

So the Mega Millions lottery got up to $351,000,000 last night. Yes, you read that right, Three Hundred Fifty One million dollars. It's played in 41 states, and people all over the country were lining up to get their chance at the big bucks. Imagine what you could do with that kind of moolah. There were two winning tickets. Neither of which was mine, but at least I can wallow in the fact that no one else I know won it either. As usual, the winning tickets weren't purchased in the big city. In any big city. Not even close. One was sold in Post Falls, Idaho and the other in Ephrata, Washington. If any of you can point to those on a map without having to search for them I'll buy you a lottery ticket. I mean really. Makes me want to move out to the middle of nowhere and live in a house that is build on cinderblocks.

Now, if anyone needs me, I'm on my way to buy a ticket for Friday's drawing. It's a measly $12,000,000; somehow I'll have to manage to make that work when I win.

Happy New Year! (A Day Later)

So I am bound and determined that, come hell or high water, I am going to blog at least weekly for 2011. There is way too much fodder out there I can use for comment. Celebrities going off the wagon, sports icons texting inappropriate pics, and people just making fools of themselves in general. Last year I got into tweeting with a vengeance, so now that I've got that under control it's time to get this blog going for real. So if there is a topic you want covered, or just to know my opinion on some matter of the utmost lack of importance, let me know! =)
