Garyo!!!

How the heck are you? Long time no see. Hope you're doing well and made it thru the ice capades ok.

Thanks! I lived comfortable as a caveman through it all! LOL!

I'm probably here unless I'm not.
Dreaming would be a perfectly useless function if it's only purpose was to entertain.

There is a guy in my neighborhood who apparently wins Pick-3 regularly. He wins so much, so often, that he purposely spreads his plays across several tickets, so that he doesn't win a big lump sum on any one ticket. It's not that he is trying to avoid being detected, it's actually so that he can collect his winnings in smaller bunches at a lotto retailer in our neighborhood, instead of having to trek all the way to downtown Toronto to pick up big cheques at the OLG lottery office. Cause if you win over $1000 on any one ticket, you can't collect it from a lottery retailer. Winning often doesn't seem to be causing him any problems.

The cutoff is $600 in NM. Anything larger is a trip to the lottery commision.

Say hey!
