Hi all- I'm reporting in with results of the Powerball lotto purchase.

Out of 75 quick picks, we hit the Powerball #27 twice.  that sucks. and only
one pick had three numbers.  nothing higher.

So the final count is:
1 ticket with three numbers    $7
1 ticket with the PB and 1 #   $4
1 ticket the just the PB       $3

$75 invested, $14 returned.

I'll donate the proceeds to the church unless someone has a better idea.
and yes, Gabes, Mags and Terry, you were all in.  Someone bought for you.
With a jackpot of $215 million, can you imagine the party we would have had
with the winning ticket!  ah, its great to dream.

back to reality, business is busy, which is good.  and speaking of good, it
was GREAT seeing everyone over the weekend.

Dave, thanks again for setting up the venue through your sister.  and Fr.
Hiltz has an infecteous laugh.  I still cant believe Willo tied for victory
on the golf course.  but with Prep's calcutta, at least I participated in
the cash courtesy of Bill Phillips.  Way to go Bill.

Albert, based on Prep's complaining, I still can't believe I slept through
your snoring.

John and Ikey, well done guys for travelling in from a long distance and not
even getting in a round of golf.  Sobo, it was fun having dinner with the
wives.  You're now heading to Paris.  have fun - or as much as you can
staying at the airport hotel for three days.  Jack, I think I enjoyed your
Chivas as much as you did.  thanks!  Fox, it's always great catching up with
the professor.  And how about making the Villanova connection at the
tailgate after the game!

Andy, you managed a skin on the golf course Friday. That's more than I could
say.  Then again, you had a few more strokes to work with.

and the football game was boring.  in the first half.  but we won.  Isnt
that what we want?  I read today that the Stanford players were really
pissed they didnt beat us.  too bad.  On to Navy, and another bullet dodged
by Ty.

I assume all got home in one piece.  Next time, hopefully Mags, Terry and
Gabes can join us.  but don't worry guys, we had at least one drink each in
your honor.

Rotohoops??   nah.
