Stopping Powerball Play

    no more powerball for me
I've been playing Powerball since 2002. On my sister's birthday I will cease playing Powerball.

Her birthday coincides with yet another change in the game.

I didn't like the last change they made, but tolerated it. So now they want to change the rules once again.

I decided that I can no longer be subject to the whims of an organization I view as a bunch of arrogant contemptuous crooks in the vein of Ernie Passailaigue of both South Carolina AND Arkansas lottery fame — so I am reduced to but two plays of one lottery game per week now ...

This would be Megamillions.

Those funds I used to spend on Powerball each week will join the weekly funds I stopped spending on Lucky for Life when the stupid state lottery people cancelled that game in South Carolina.

My savings account grows with the diminished lottery business. Whereas I very recently went from eighty to sixty and now spend $60 weekly now it will very soon be but $30.

the lottery is a dick
