No, never heard that one before but now that it's been explained to me
it is kinda funny. I'm a bit slow sometimes.
Ok...a lot of times. :-)

Unfortunately we don't have lottery tickets in NC. I wish we did, if
we'd put a large chunk of the $ it raised towards the public school
system. Thanks again, Mike.

No problem. The whole "I'm sorry!" "Me too!" thing is about to get
sappy here. ;-) I sense a group hug coming on so I'm just going to
silently step away now... heh heh.

Re: This might not have been a good idea, but...
Hi Travis:
Don't fall for the baloney that the state politicians pitch you when they
want you to vote for a state lottery. When the Ohio State Lottery was voted
in by the people many years ago, all the lottery proceeds were supposed to
go to the schools.
Yeah right! The lottery proceeds did go to the schools, but an equal amount
of state money that used to go to the schools before the lottery came into
being, was diverted to the state general fund, so in reality NO additional
money went to the schools.
