LOTTERY WIN
I know a guy who won the TX lottery several weeks ago, along with some othe co-workers - it was 12 million but after it is split up - they should each get about $200,000 - give or take (since he hasn't filed income tax in over 5 years - he may not get that much - as he filed this year - so it is a red flag) - but the whole thing is being held up because one of the men will not give his social security number to the lottery commission - i don't know what his reason is - but this is keeping all the others from their winnings. I guess it pays to know who you are doing business with - even if it is combining funds to buy lottery tickets.
Sure, let them play the lottery..
Then, I think they should have to compensate their victims for the rest of their lives for all the heck they went through and will go through. If they don't want to do that then they shouldnt be allowed to play the lottery. They are criminals.
So if I say I'll never win the lottery
does that mean I'll win!!!??!!!
I'll NEVER win the lottery!
Two $1 lottery tickets! :) And an agreement
nm
DH played the lottery, Pick 4, hit it
straight. What got me was he only played 50 cents, but he still won 2500. I would've played at least a dollar!! What was funny was that he had a job number and a work number that were the same number. He said that never happened in 30 years of working. Told him he had to play those four numbers for a week. Three days later, my "cheap" husband hit! I still tease him about it! and still kicking myself that I didn't play it too!! You just never know :)
On the occasions when I but a lottery ticket I say a
prayer that God will allow me to some day have the money to do the work I want to do with animals. They are the dearest things to my heart, each one of them. God Bless all who contribute and do what they can!!! Keep dreaming . . maybe one day. 
Did you see couple won lottery, built mansion and

A Lottery winner so we can be happily unemployed.

Couple wins 270 million lottery. sm
South Georgia couple wins big. He only bought 2 tickets, spend $2.00 and won 270 million. They interviewed him on TV - they were living in a mobile home. So happy for them. Nice to see someone that humble and down to earth win.
Winning lottery, he took wrong move
First of all you should have things in place before letting everyone in town you have won that much money. You need legal advice, places to invest and really good help rather than letting people know. He has children and grandchildren, need to think security also not only for his family but he and his wife as well. If I won that much money I would definitely have lots of good plans in place before claiming.
Quit Smoking and Don't Play The Lottery!!!

So - here is the final story (sm)
The insurance company is givig them $1250 towards carpeting. They were told their premium will not increase now. However, if they were to have another "accident" in the next 3 years, their premium will increase 10%. So, that's the deal.
After a divorce is final...
After a divorce is final...what are your thoughts on the mother and her child requesting that their names be changed back to her maiden name?
"Traditionally, courts ruled that a father had an automatic right to have his child keep his last name if he continued to actively perform his parental role. Although there is still some bias in this direction, it is no longer strictly true. Now a child's name may be changed by court petition when it is clearly in the best interest of the child to do so. When deciding whether to grant a name change, courts consider many factors, such as the length of time the father's name has been used, the strength of the mother-child relationship and the need of the child to identify with a new family unit (if the change involves remarriage). The courts must balance these factors against the strength and importance of the father-child relationship. What this all boils down to is that it's up to a judge to decide which name is in the child's best interest."
What would really be in the childs best interest if he doesn't grow to know his father anyway? keep the last name? or change it?
It started out with the final four SM
Katee, Courtney, Joshua and Twitch. Then they did the first elimination, which was Courtney and the second was Katee.
Then down to the final TWO: Joshua and Twitch.
JOSHUA IS THE FINAL WINNER!!!! $250,000 PRIZE!
I dearly loved Twitch too! When Joshua won Twitch hugged him and he held up Joshua's arms!!!
After I got engarged, I played my wedding date on a lottery
and won over $400.00 and then bought a few scratch offs with the winnings and won another $50.00! I also won $500+ at a slot machine with my last 20.00 cash as I was leaving a casino after staying the weekend :) However, this was all over ten years ago and I haven't won anything since :( I AM DUE!
Gas card? Lottery tickets? Paid magazine

But now they may make less on the final movie (sm)
 I personally may not go see it just in protest of the way she went about all of this. It was strongly marketed to children and I see no reason that Dumbledore, a fictional character who was given no sexual orientation throughout the books, now needs to be deemed as gay. Who cares one way or the other? He's not even real! I suppose it is because she wants her books and movies to become a cultish type thing that will continue to produce money for her for years to come as people pore over her books trying to find clues that evidence Dumbledore's sexual orientation. It strongly discredits her in my opinion and I am sure in the minds of many other parents of her child fans.
Divorce is final insurance is gone
Once you are divorced, you are off of his insurance unless you COBRA over but yo have to do that immediately. He cannot add her without being married and if he does this under the table, it is insurance fraud and both of them can get into trouble. If he is behind on his support, don't trust him on anything else. All she has to do is to call his HR department or if she knows what insurance they had while married, call them. Beware of him he does not sound to be above board and legitimate.
Final installment - You need to read what I said again -
I said NOTHING about getting back together or a fairy tale ending. This is about HER being able to move on 4 years after someone beat her. It is about being able to say what needs to be said and letting the chips fall where they may. I get it. Seen this in action in my own family. I also know that often without help these ladies often choose the very same type of men over and over. Everyone deserves better in life. I hope she finds peace. 
Divorce final today
Just feeling a little down, as my marriage is officially over as of this morning. I'm okay; just a little sad. Any of you "been there, done that?"
Adam and Gookey in the final
,,,,,,,and Adam to win!
I agree with I think Melinda & Jordin will be the final 2 but...sm
would love to see Blake go next. I'm tired of hearing these guys who don't sing better than you can find at karaoke keep singing week after week. It's about time Phil & Chris went home!
Thought Idol final excellent
I had never been a Tony Bennett fan- think i have changed my mind. What a performer! Loved the Reuben and Jordin duet, wonderful! What about Gladys and her backup group? Unbelievable! Kelly looked far too punk, ugh, did not like her getup! I think the public finally got it right in Jordin. She will do great. Overall show gets the thumbs up from me.
great final show as was DWTS also....
Final season of Battlestar Galactica!
Heck of a ride that series has been! 
Yes it was gone during sentencing and REALITY final sank in
He has gotten away with too much, road rage incident, a domestic situation when his daughter called the cops on him and others. He is a loose cannon and finally got shot down.
Our little burg here in lower NY state does this, too, and the final concert is usually
s
OMG I so agree!! I had hoped for Zack/Dick final
I HATE THE FACT THE DONATOS WON - I want to vote at cbs site for Eric to push Daniele to win because then she and Dick will be at each other's throats once again - because he'd probably want half the $$ if it all goes to her. *LOL* - money matters and family often cause problems *laughs*
Why not give him some rings to choose from and let him make the final decision?
Some guys want to say they picked it out. Makes them proud to say they did so. Ultimately, it is not really about the ring, the wedding, or any of that. It is about how you two will live your lives together. Congratulations!
Kim is great... I wish she could come and decorate my home.. Loved what she did on the final challan
@
Sorry, don't believe in that place either!
Hmmm, that was a very christian-like post - NOT! lol
she's in a much better place now
and with her son. I wonder who raises the baby.
there's a place for everyone
:)
That's why this is no place for it
I can tell you right now a lot of people would not like that. I asked someone how they would like it if it was the satanic bible and they have yet to answer. Although they were mighty quick to come back accusing me of being a non-believer when they have no idea what my background is. People don't want the Koran or Tanakh or the Jehovan bible (if they have one), the Wiccan Book of Days, or better yet, how about the Satanic bible. No, they wouldn't like that. To them its the bible or nothing else. People need to keep their religious beliefs to themselves.
I think I might have already gotten something to take the place
My husband the other day told me we needed some new towels, others worn. I thought well just let him get those as I seem to always be the one to buy things needed in the home. Yesterday UPS delivered a brand new 32 inch television to me, an early birthday gift for March from hubby. This morning I went out and bought him lots of new towels (and wash cloths also).
In the first place...sm
Sounds like he went to rehab for all the wrong reasons. Namely, for you, not for himself. The only way an alcoholic/addict has any chance for long-term recovery is to want sobriety more than he or she wants anything in the world. You work the program not for your family, not for your friends, not for your employer, but for yourself. Otherwise, he'll go right back out. Trust me on this.
Meanwhile, get yourself to Al-Anon STAT! The Al-Anon program shows you how to detach and take care of yourself and have your own life. It shows you how to make healthy decisions for yourself and not to enable to alcoholic/addict.
Best of luck to YOU.
What happened in the first place??

I'd have a BIG problem with it. Not her place. (nm)

Yes I would - it's not the teacher's place to do this....sm
shouldn't they be spending time teaching anyway instead of being worried about what kids do and don't believe in outside of the classroom?
Teachers are being allowed to do whatever they want this day in time. My high schooler listens to her biology teacher rant and rave each day about the "evils" of eating meat and she's sick of hearing it every day and is anxious for the end of the semester next week to get rid of this obsessive teacher.
Maybe look for a bed and breakfast place in that...
area. Chamber of Commerce might be able to help you.
Congratulations to her and to you!!! You should place the right arm
far over the left shoulder and give yourself a pat on the back. What a wonderful support you have been in helping her achieve her goals and you should be very proud of yourself, too. I know she is so appreciative for all of you that made her dream come true!
It's OUR place to tell our government that
Don't forget, the government is supposed to be owned by us, US citizens. They have gotten so giddy with power, they have forgotten that. Why else do they write their own paychecks, given themselves raises, and can continue to draw HUGE incomes after they leave office for the rest of their lives, including HUGE incomes for their wives long after they are dead, free healthcare, all the perks. These are public officials. Once they are out of office, they're on their own. We have let them take control of OUR government. It's up to us to take it back. You have a phone, e-mail, petitions.......you get the message across to them. Don't wait for others to do it for you.
I will take more than I bought in the first place
if they don’t cough up the $700 plus Tuesday morning and according to what (if that is the way it goes) it brings in on the court house steps, then I get % and the courts take % but not as much as mine. I can hardly wait until Show-Down at the OK Corral Tuesday morning. I just get ticked off thinking about their nerve.
NO WAY. It is not your place to tell them, let their parents tell them when they
think the time is right!!!!!
"No other place...."
NO OTHER PLACE
By Sondra Stallman ( poetry from II Cor. 5:8)
I turn and walk down a corridor.
Even though it is a strange and different place, I am not afraid to walk it.
There is a deep quiet here, like a hush and a soft sound of singing.
Everything has gone white. I am in a Most Awesome Presence.
There is no time nor space.
The Presence is all encompassing.
There is no “air” as I know it, yet I care not.
I am still. I feel no need at all.
No hunger. No thirst. I’m not tired.
The greatest change within me is the total lack of desire to utter a single word.
My thoughts seem to have stopped. It is like I am floating.
I have always been very conscious of my “self”….my “body”….my “thoughts”,
my perception of things around me! In this place, I am utterly emptied of “self.”
My awareness is keen, however, of the Presence that is everywhere.
It is a Peace so deep it sustains all things that come near.
I feel as if I’ve been shot into the very center of a hot and burning star.
I can feel the energy that is creating and re creating every milli second.
There is a distant sound of song, as if miles away.
Voices that sound like velvet feels
are floating past me.I linger before the songs.
I reach out.
I can touch them with my finger.
I can TOUCH the SONGS!
Suddenly,it seems that the SONGS are INSIDE ME!
The light is bright and deep and all wrapped up in the songs.
I see no one.
I feel only Ecstasy.I know of no other place.
I know nothing but the Love
And The Light.
I Will never Leave.
II Cor. 5:8…”to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord.”
Looking for best place to raise a kid
I like where I live...but after a week from H E double toothpicks last week, I really feel that a bit of distance between myself and any family members would be better. Long story short, you think your family will be there to help when you need it, but instead all you get is beaten down and end up feeling bad and having to deal with your crises by yourself anyway (it's the ONLY reason I moved back to this area a couple of years ago).
Currently, I live in the deep south and my city has an excellent !!! school system, but I know there are other good school systems out there. So, here are some of what I would like in addition to a good school system.
Near water and mountains (could be lake or ocean, or state park), easy access to public transportation (in case my car breaks down), a good YMCA or city recreation center.
I've been looking at a borough just north of Philly, a couple of small cities in Virginia, a city north of Denver, some areas in North Carolina. I would like to avoid the west coast unless it's somewhere in Washington State or Oregon. I've considered the Reno area, but I've never been there and I don't know what the schools are like.
Any ideas? Thanks!
Another place to check...
My basement has a sump pump and water collection area behind a basement wall. The drainage pipe goes out to a pond down the street. It took a while to figure out that was how tree-frogs were getting into my house. Sorry about your snake problem--it's one of my few phobias (though I still will not kill them). BTW, I also saw one go through a crack in the sidewalk. Amazing critters aren't they?
There is no place in my house
where these would fit in. I am no where into the shabby chic thing, have had these in a cabinet and going thru all my stuff for the last day before the sale next weekend found these and hey, since I am not using, am gonna try to sell selling. I have some things of my hubby (who is a pack rat) and just hope he does not find what I have gotten of his. Ekk...I have everything but the kitchen sink, carpets, vintage jewelry, floor lamps, table and chairs, etc. I can hardly wait.
What a beautiful place for all of you!!! nm
