Today's Quote

Never "for the sake of peace and quiet" deny your own experience or convictions.

-Dag Hammarskjold

We won $15 in last night’s drawing. None of my other clubs won a thing, and I, with my own tickets cash out with Nothing.

That is sad, because normally I keep 17 as one of my Mega Balls.

We had no winner in last night’s drawing, so the Jack Pot when up to $55 Million. The Cash Option is set at $34,400,000.00.

Your next game is Friday July 27th, 2007.

We have 120 shares issued in this game. We should be dividing the Cash Option Sum, by 120 to get the per share ratio.

I took today off to go the Claim Center to see if I could not get our $600.00. However, I never made it. I slept until 11:00 a.m. I was too tire.

I have tried calling the Claim Center before, and you get to sit on hold for days at a time. I may e-mail the Claim Center this evening, I may be able to get my answer that way.

The following is NOT a Joke: Postcard E-mail Scam

If you're like me (and everyone else who has e-mailed me about this), you've been getting some strange e-mails in your Inbox lately. Am I right? Well, those e-mails are part of a new scam that is going around these days. It's going by the name of the "Postcard Scam," but there are various versions of it that may have found its way to your e-mail Inbox. Let's take a look at it and see what all it entails, shall we?!

If you receive one of these e-mails in your Inbox, the subject will say something like "You've received a postcard from a family member" or something similar to that. There have also been some that say something about an e-card, a greeting or even one specifying a special holiday (like the Fourth of July, for example). The senders of this scam have also varied. These spam e-mails have come from Hallmark, Greetings123, eCards, GreetingCards.com and more.

If you open the e-mail, it will tell you that you've been sent a postcard and there will be a link you can click on to go and preview it. But, if you click on that link, you're putting yourself at risk for a potential virus or malware infestation. Once you click on the link, the scammers know your address is a real one and they can start sending you malicious material at any time. So, although these e-mails look tempting, don't click on that link! Be extra careful not to fall for this trick. Like I always say, if the e-mail looks suspicious, just delete it as fast as you can. It's better to be safe than sorry, don't you think?!

I get this e-mail all the time, and I think, but am not sure, this may have been the cause of my computer going down several weeks ago.

Now, if you have e-mail, and want to do something fun, go to this web site: http://www.kylottery.com/apps/player/ Then go to Number Cruncher. It’s cute, it will randomly select Power Ball numbers for you.

Speaking of Power Ball, I have two new Pools coming: Louisiana’s Power Ball Lottery Pool & Kentucky’s Power Ball Lottery Pool. See attached Game Announcements for each game.

I do have one rejoin who has already paid for Game 36, so it will start on Friday August 10th, 2007

If you want to play in Game 36 you will need to have your money to me no later than Thursday August 09th, 2007.

The membership list for Game 36 is attached.

YOUR AGE BY EATING OUT

Don't tell me your age; you probably would tell a falsehood anyway-but your waiter may know!

YOUR AGE BY DINER & RESTAURANT MATH

This is pretty neat.

DON'T CHEAT **BY SCROLLING DOWN FIRST!*

It takes less than a minute. Work this out as you read ..

Be sure you don't read the bottom until you've worked it out!

This is not one of those waste of time things, it's fun.

1. First of all, pick the number of times a week that you would like to go out to eat. (more than once but less than 10)

2. Multiply this number by 2 (just to be bold)

3. Add 5

4. Multiply it by 50

5. If you have already had your birthday this year add 1757...

If you haven't, add 1756.

6. Now subtract the four digit year that you were born.

You should have a three digit number.

The first digit of this was your original number. (I.e., How many times you want to go out to restaurants in a week.)

The next two numbers are YOUR AGE ! ------ (Oh YES, it is!!!) *

THIS IS THE ONLY YEAR (2007) IT WILL EVER WORK, SO SPREAD IT AROUND WHILE IT LASTS
