Have you ever played the lottery? Do you still do it?

i have never purchased lottery tickets in my life, but i have picked lottery numbers with someone in the past only one time.

he agreed to split the winnings if we win, but we didn't.

i am thinking about buying some lottery tickets, hopefully i will get very lucky.

I was playing the lottery only $1, just when the jack pot got over $1,000,000. I wonder how many other people were using this same tactic, because they raised the lottory ticket to $2 a ticket. Seem to me they raised the price of the ticket so the jack pot would go up quicker then more people will buy tickets when the jack pot is higher.

I don't think it is wrong to play, just be careful of the snares, you don't want to become addicted...

I was one of those people "Oh, I never win anything" so I played a pick five in any combination of numbers and how be if the numbers did not come up in the exact order, so I won $2,600 instead of $5,000, and from then on for a short time I would win something everytime I played (min. $50), had to go accross the river to buy tickets were it was legal and my boss sent me to buy him $100 in tickets, he wanted some of my luck to rub off on him, so I bought my boss his 100 tickets and I bought myself 1 ticket, I won $100 with my 1 ticket and my boss won $0 with his 100 tickets. Oh! my boss was mad, HA! HA!

I then went to Ceasers Palace casino in Las Vegas I was in the win $700 and a day later some shady guy kept trying to get me to give him a ride and they changed dealers on me and got there $700 back from me, it was quite a deal and thought maybe they were going to drag me off in a back room and beat me up if I did not give up the $700, and decided it was about time for me to get the heck out of there, but the place was so big I did not know the way out, so I tenkered around with a couple of one armed bandets until I could find someone with their heads hung low and follow them to the way out...

Amen!

IF we erased all history... WHAT "truth" would emerge in time?

by AK - Jeff in

i posit that if we put mankind into a state of suspended animation, erased his memory, and removed all traces of recorded human thinking over the ages, that given a few thousand years after his wake-up science and it's principles would have been rediscovered, reaffirmed.

all the sound principles would be once again discovered and leveraged into powerful technologies along lines similar to those we see today.

in other words, gravity, thermodynamics, astromony, magnetism, and physics of the universe would eventually be considered 'true', and verifible.

SMART phones: I got my first iPhone

by Terry in

for my birthday, my daughter (who works for apple) got me an iphone.. yes, i was using an old motorola flip-phone until now...like a geriatric captain kirk.. and i wondered why people had been giving me those strange looks before.... .

anyway, imagine my reaction to the mammoth technology contained in an iphone.. talk about a miracle, this qualifies.. i'm particularly impressed by the onboard gps.

i can type in a destination and the phone already knows exactly where i am and will plot a destination map onscreen.

I like tools so I downloaded a level it is a free download, can also have tape measure or sliding ruler, lots of carpenter tools, measure a window on a multiple story building from far away, just installed voice2text and can record a message and send it email in writing without typing, but it missunderstands some words or maybe I don't talk well. Like to try the speed senser.

I think they can do just about anything with it.

Scratch and sniff would be killer...

Question for those who know

by truthseeker1969 in

as you all know i am not the sharpest tool in the ice box, the old lady is!.

can anyone tell me if it is in the elders book that is says if an elder commits serious sin doesnt report it and is found out, but, has the respect of the congregation it is assumed it is forgiven?.

also, one comment i read states that elders were told to destroy certain files when the data protection act came out in britain, what were those files and does anyone know anything about it?.

trueblue

This thread reminds me one time this elder made a comment in a book study about when following rules from the wts, that elders should abide so as to set an example, this same elder was seen by several of us running around town alone with a member of the opposite sex.

Elders mating call... "It's o'kay honey, I am an "ELDER" and no one knows what goes on behind closed door's"

Watchtower and World Government

by Infowarrior in

i, like many of you, are aware of many issues involving the watchtower society.

this is about the watchtower, world government and the new world order.. .

Conspiracy and all that is just giving people too much credit they are not intelegent enough to agree with one another and could not get people to agree enough to reach a campain against world power then there is the issue of natural desasters, floods, earth quakes, hurricanes, etc., etc., and maybe something come along man never heard of. Man can not even predict the weather.

Don't worry about tomorrow, tomorrow will have it's own problems, and would not have near the problems the world has if everyone would just quit worrying...

Some people just have too much time on theit hands, not me, I have to work for a living, besides what can you do about it? Can you add another cubit to your life? Probably substract a few cubits from your life worrying all the time.
