We should stop accepting people who don't speak English and have no skills.  If what we hear about dancers, models, and other performers coming about of the eastern European countries are tr...more

You know which drawing your ticket is for when you purchase it.  This story is a crock!.  Roller coaster my behind!    Really what went on here is a woman didn't buy a lottery ticket when she should have.  Is that a good headline?  She did not, I repeat, did not buy a winning lottery ticket.
