No one won the Jack Pot on Tuesday, nor did anyone win the Jack Pot on Friday, September 7^th, 2007.

The New Jack Pot for Tuesday September 11^th, 2007, is now at $26 Million. The new Cash Option is worth $15,500,000.00.

Here are your numbers:

Numbers	Mega Ball	Dates Valid	Notes
22 31 40 47 56	24	09/04 – 10/05/2007
11 13 43 49 53	44	09/04 – 09/21/2007

We had $80.00 in our original pool. Abu and I sold this game base on $5.00 per share. Most of you paid for 1 share; there were two people who purchased 2 shares. They paid $10.00.

There are 16 shares issued in this game, and in the event we should win in the next 10 drawings, I will divide the Cash Option by 16 to determine everyone’s share. If we should win Tuesday Night, here is what the payout would be (not including any attorney fees, taxes, or tithes).

Shares Purchased	Amount you could win.
1	$968,750.00
2	$1,937,500.00

These games are coming up, so see me if you would like to play.

1. Mega Millions Lottery Pool – Game 37, right now this start date is Friday, September 14th, 2007. However the Jack Pot is low, and I have Game 35 and Game 36 both running, so I could delay the opening of this game by one week. The cost is $10.00 per share, and I will sell ½ shares in this game.

2. Lotto Texas Lottery Pool – Game Eight starts on Saturday September 15^th, 2007. If you wish to play in that game, it’s run identical to the Mega Millions Game. The cost is $10.00 per share, and I do allow people to buy ½ shares.

If you want to play in Lotto Texas Lottery Pool – Game Eight, you will need to have your money to me no later than Wednesday, September 12^th, 2007. The same goes for Mega Millions Lottery Pool – Game 37.

3. 13-Week Pennsylvania Power Ball Pool – Game Two. I have right now a Power Ball Pool. We purchased the tickets from Pennsylvania. This current game is closed, and they have the last drawing on October 3^rd, 2007.

Juanita Brown, will be going back to Pennsylvania to pick up our winnings and purchased tickets for the 13 Week Pennsylvania Power Ball Pool – Game Two.

The cost for the Power Ball Pool is $26.00 per share, and I will accept ½ shares in this game.

13 weeks is 3 months and 1 week, so the game is long. The good thing about Power Ball is it goes up very fast. The Jack Pot was just won and started over at $15 Million, and then rose to $20 Million. The current Jack Pot is now at $29 Million. If no one wins in on Wednesday, it could easily get to $40 Million by Saturday. See www.powerball.com

If you wish to play in this pool, you will need to have your money to me no later than September 20^th, 2007.

HOW TO HANDLE A HUSBAND

A couple was celebrating their Golden Wedding anniversary on the beaches in Montego Bay, Jamaica. Their domestic tranquility had long been the talk of the town.

People would say, "What a peaceful & loving couple".

The local newspaper reporter was inquiring as to the secret of their long and happy marriage.

The Husband replied: "Well, it dates back to our honeymoon in America," explained the man. "We visited the Grand Canyon, in Arizona, and took a trip down to the bottom of the canyon, by horse. We hadn't gone too far when my wife's horse stumbled and she almost fell off.

My wife looked down at the horse and quietly said, “That's once."

"We proceeded a little further and her horse stumbled again. Once more my wife quietly said, "That's twice." We hadn't gone a half-mile when the horse stumbled for the third time my wife quietly removed a revolver from her purse and shot the horse dead.

I SHOUTED at her, "What’s wrong with you, Woman! Why did you shoot the poor animal like that, are you friggin crazy!?"

She looked at ME, and quietly said, "That's once."

And from that moment, we have lived happily every after.
