Lottery Weiner

I played the $20 Halloween Illinois lottery that sold only 500,000 tickets, offered 509 prizes of at least $1,000, including five at $1 million. I bought one the first day they went on sale, October 1.

There was actually one winner from the local store I bought my ticket at. Some lucky guy around town is $1,000 richer.

Meanwhile, I'm just one of the citizens for whom the lottery is a tax on people who can't do math.
