I don't think I have ever won anything from a ticket bought. =)

And as someone old enough that is already ahead in your future, standing at a distance of more than half of the years that you've already been wandering until now in your whole life. I can assure you, that is not gonna change!! };)

All gone to the essentials, booze and women.

And the occasional box of chocolates to lure those succulent females to share those elixirs of youth tightly together with us. LoL

This is the thing, having a learnable tool is a different thing, then there is a skill too.

Exactly!! as far as games of pure luck go, if you don't have at your disposal a whole bag of tricks under your sleeve, it's game over. ;o)

one day I will win the lottery... then get hit by a bus the next day.

Knowing us so well... without a doubt my dear friend!! :)
