Carex, I don't hold a grudge that long. The Giants won when I was 6 years old, so at least I am able to say that they won the World Series during my lifetime. Now, with the Red Sox and White Sox having won, that leaves just the Chicago Cubs, who have not won since 1908, to win before every Cubs fan alive when they last won all die out, as is the way of Life.

Sadly, it was not my ticket that won the 649.

Jicon, bite your tongue about the frost!! We are getting cool nights but not that cool. The highs don't seem so high anymore either. We are due for a big storm tonight and tomorrow. Our first monsoon.

Morning, all. Late getting to my desk, yet again. My only defense is that so much of what I do happens elsewhere. Anywho, another day, with bright new prospects, is under way. Sorry to hear you didn't win, Sinc. I gather the person who did has not yet come forward, which strikes me as odd. Assuming they didn't drop dead from shock at the news, why on earth would one not come forward?

It was 2 above at the airport when I got up this morning (4:30AM). I definitely note the change in temperature, but it still has been getting sunny during the afternoon, and its nice enough to walk around with a light shirt.

Fortunately, I'm off to Nevada next week... unfortunately, I have to come back to the cooler temperature the week after.

Alas, I didn't even buy a ticket. I meant to, but instead just threw my money out the window. Same odds, I figured

Kidding.. I am usually quite lucky - last time I bought a ticket I won $10, any money is good, right? I just didn't make the time to go buy a few. Guess I like working too much?

RevMatt people wouldn't come forward right away because as soon as they come forward they are completely assaulted by people looking for donations/handouts/etc. You need time to arrange for a new private phone number, possibly moving, and passing all the information onto the people you want to have it, so that as soon as you claim it, you can do your best to disappear, because you will be instantly famous.
