I feel like Charlie in the Wonka movie..
"How many Wonka Bars did you open?"
"One."
"One? You can't do just one."
Well. I did. Hopefully it's a winner. If it is, I will share some with all of you for indulging my daily spam-mails. (And by share, I mean, I'll buy you a beer)
By now, you've heard and seen it all I'm sure but just in case...
11 things that are more likely to happen than you winning the jackpot
Lots of pretty dark items on there.. dying in a plane.. dying by a bee sting.. why couldn't they have used dying during a three-way with Kate Upton and Brooklyn Decker... I think Tyrion Lannister put it best...
The Risks of winning a huge jackpot
Again, surprised some things didnt make that list.. you know, like back surgery needed after sleeping on a bed made of hundreds, or the abrasions from swimming around in your vault full of gold coin.. Uncle Scrooge style..
Last but not least, check out some of these numbers.. this means we can afford to fix that pothole on my street, right?
-As of 10am today, the MA lottery has
already sold $1.5 million worth of Powerball tickets.
$4.3 million were sold in MA on Tuesday.
-The MA lottery estimates some $35 million
dollars in tickets will have been sold since the last jackpot was won 10/3.
There have been 15 drawings since 10/3
with no winner.
-The Jackpot:
If you take the lump sum payment it’s
$327 million before taxes.
After taxes, it’s $228.9 million
-The MA lottery is currently
selling Powerball tickets at a rate of $7,300 a minute statewide.
It
anticipates that during peak hours (5:00-8:00pm rush), sales will reach
$20,000-$22,000 a minute-The MA lottery estimates that there will be a brawl every 8 minutes between those homeless-looking, unemployed types who spend all day hanging around convenience stores scratching off tickets and stink-eyeing every other lottery player who buys a ticket.
Ok, I made one of those up.

About The Arnold Palmer
Film Summary
92 tournament wins, seven major championships, a Congressional Gold Medal, and a Presidential Medal of Freedom. These are just a few of the accomplishments that have solidified the legend of Arnold Palmer. However, for an entire generation the "Arnold Palmer" name might be more synonymous with the lemonade-and-iced tea beverage that has become a piece of Americana. Will Arnett, Peter Jacobsen, Fuzzy Zoeller, Jim Thorpe, Fred Funk, Brad Faxon are fans of both the man and drink, and lend their insight to director Bryan Gordon's exploration of the history, mystery, and industry surrounding "The Arnold Palmer."4. Come Again?
Update: After City Hall cockblocked their efforts in Gov't Ctr, Trojan has found a new opening for its climactic giveaway. (Unfortunately, it wont be as perfect as the NYC location... (see caption below))
Asked to keep sex toys away from City Hall, Trojan plans visit to Boston Center for the Arts
(Trojan Vibrations)
In this photo supplied by Trojan, workers hand out sex toys in New York City’s Meatpacking District.

From our Detroit Sucks correspondant...

According to a Grand Rapids police report obtained by MLive.com, Riley Sheahan twice registered a blood alcohol level of .30 percent when tested in jail after his arrest on Oct. 29.
The "super drunk" charge carries a penalty of 180 days in jail and possible deportation. Sheahan also faces a charge of providing false information, as he was carrying the driver's license of fellow Wings prospect Brendan Smith when he was arrested.
