If I was Winston Smith I would rewrite that part of history at the Ministry of Truth. Then I would be good again, not ungood.

"...If I was Winston Smith I would rewrite that part of history at the Ministry of Truth..."

LOL!

Eventually we'll get that head of yours in a cage full of hungry rats where it belongs...

On a lighter note... My practice of buying a Powerball ticket for every drawing is cheap entertainment that occasionally is free entertainment.

By that I mean that one year I won enough of the tiny prize amounts to make every ticket I bought that year free.

I know this... If I keep MY OWN council, and buy the tickets, I do have a chance, albeit a vanishingly small one, of winning a sometimes enormous jackpot.

I'm also putting off the day when the government puts the gun to some poor bastard's head and demands the money in a non-voluntary mode. (I buy in a neighboring state)

If I were foolish enough to take the advice of those who love to hate the lottery however, my odds of winning anything drop to zero. My opportunity to have a little harmless fun drops to zero and the day that someone will be taxed for what the lottery brings in will be moved up.

I'll bet that at least half the sanctimonious lottery pooh-poohers buy tickets on the sly whenever they get a chance.
