Didn't Win the Powerball
Looks like I will need to show up for work tomorrow.

It was fun spending my fictional billion dollars for a little while though!

Hope one of you bought the lucky ticket!!!

$5- no winner. They say your chances of winning are exactly the same whether you buy a ticket or not.

My consolation is believing whoever won it will do great charitable things with it!!

Didn't match even a single Number. This Good Fortune saves me from any attempts to emulate the Lifestyle of Charlie Sheen. I'm safe...

They already have. Someone in Cali. But more than 1 can win.

I'm not sure, I haven't checked my ticket! All the winners were sold in California, so I know I didn't win the big one!

Hey whoever won tonight is about 35 minutes away from us. I wonder if we drove street by street if we would spot the winners house?? Yeah...
. I don't think I'd be "advertising" it either.

Cali, Florida, and Tennessee - 3 winners. I'm a loser here in Georgia. Oh well!

So they have to split $1.5 billion 3 ways? What a shame

Didn't win and honestly, I think I'm glad I didn't. It would be too easy to start drinking again if I didn't have to worry about working.
