I wish. My wife is a McNamara like Dolores (unrelated) and from the same parish, so that's about as close as I'm getting to it. :-(

From what I heard your wife got about as much out of that win as the relatives did and without the anger. :)mad4city said:aguero93:20 said:mad4city said:I'd be too embarrassed to collect it a second time.

Do you actually believe there are combinations of numbers you can ignore without reducing your odds of winning?

It is likely I can't grasp the principles. But you pick 6 numbers, and a machine draws a random 6 from 49 possibilities. The only reason it would look weird is because as people, we would see the pattern of 1,2,3,4,5,6 and go "NO WAY!" But the machine doesn't know that. It's random.
Is that too stupid?
