OK, I'm playing those numbers in Powerball tonight, if I remember to.

Wait - if I play the same numbers twice, don't I have to share the jackpot with myself?
Posted by: ubetcha | August 01, 2007 at 11:34 AM
How about if I play it 3 times?
Posted by: ubetcha | August 01, 2007 at 11:35 AM
Halooo? Anyone home?
Posted by: ubetcha | August 01, 2007 at 11:35 AM
Jackpot, ubetcha!! A morning hat trick to you!
Posted by: DeskDiva | August 01, 2007 at 11:35 AM
BINGO!!!

Dave, as you very well know, 59 IS NOT OLD!

psst, Jeff? Dave is 60 now! Did you forget?
Posted by: DeskDiva | August 01, 2007 at 11:40 AM
...59 is not old but it is a little ripe. Not rotten,mind you, but past it's prime. Of course not referring to our Dave.

Growing old is not fun. We have this to bide our time however.

Thank you my friends. Nothing like a morning trick.

Jeff, the geezer bus is parked in the Idaho Crapcam thread. It's the colorful one so we can't miss it!

...However,I do have a "I Break for Seniors" bumper sticker.
Posted by: Texas | August 01, 2007 at 11:45 AM
Tex, we have no use for that bumper sticker here in Miami. Everyone's fair game.
Posted by: Siouxie | August 01, 2007 at 11:49 AM
I have a "I Brake for Poor Spellers" bumper sticker.

Dave, I think the other advantage is you can hide your own Easter Eggs.

Test. (Dave don't open this)

Old threads are a really good place for 'testy' people.

lilrascal: check here.
I know Dave is 60, but that's more than 59 right, DD? And not that I am 59 because I'm not...yet.
I see you've got the link.

I have a "I Brake for Poor Spellers" bumper sticker.
===================
How about AN "I Brake for Bad Grammar" sticker? Do they make those too?

I was listening to a rock station yesterday and they played in sequence Pink Floyd, Steve Winwood, and Eric Clapton, all three guys/groups that I listened to in frickin' high school and all three still selling records. My 14-year-old's band bud burned him a Led Zeppelin CD.
Geezer rock RULES!

No Stairway To Heaven unless you have been approved to do so at the front desk.

I was in the middle of ripping the lead riff to this when you called.
"Dave's Idols"

the question is, will he remember that he won and go to pick up the prize?

Built especially for me 12 years ago by Bernie Hefner (in his garage). Easily the best playing/sounding guitar most of you have ever laid eyes upon. Those are three Seymour Duncans. JB custom in the tail.

A favorite moment at the RBRs concert was when somebody (not one of our group) yelled out, "Play Freebird!"
Posted by: Jeff Meyerson | August 01, 2007 at 02:04 PM
Jeff, I'm surprised it wasn't one of your/our group. (I say "our" because I was with you in spirit!!)
Posted by: DeskDiva | August 01, 2007 at 02:05 PM
Jeff, that was the heckler guy that kept yelling in my ear and I kept giving him the "cuban death stare". He wanted to butt in...sheesh.
Posted by: Siouxie | August 01, 2007 at 02:07 PM
Wait, did anyone ever answer UBetcha's question about the jackpot? Didn't the guy just win two half-shares instead of one full share (which, back when I was in school, was pretty much the same thing)? Or at age 37 did I miss the response and I'm ready for early admittance onto the Geezer Bus?
Posted by: Scott | August 01, 2007 at 02:17 PM
I saw Lynerd Skynerd in concert in the mid 70's. A huge fight broke out. A tatoo commemorating the occasion may be appropriate. That or a rose on my ankle.

The lottery winnings are split equally amongst all winners. So, if his two tickets were the only winners, he got the same amount as if he'd only bought one. However, if more people won, he got twice as much as anyone else, although not quite double what he would have received with just one winning ticket.
