Yes, Stees, many eons ago, I did purchase a few weekly tickets at our Neighborhood "21|7 Variety Store @ Shady Lane & Main. Nitely I analyzed past results and used a "Homemade 32 Number Bad Dawg Matrix" as the basis of my selections:

[18] [47] [03] [23] [03] [73] [93] [69]
[87] [73] [67] [16] [89] [09] [55] [31]
[48] [86] [39] [24] [59] [50] [32] [64]
[60] [92] [18] [44] [27] [86] [17] [91]


Yep, that was when I was young and foolish and chewed bubblegum in bed and was all cereal about winning
and so totally sewious. But then I LOL'D!! (i lol; u lol. are we are lolling yet? wut was ur biggest lol evah?)

This may or may not sound silly but the use of "lol" is so pervasive on the internet that it's stimulated my curiosity to ask: has anyone here ever said, "lol" to mean "laughing out loud", "lots of luck" or "lots of love" in person or on the phone? lol[/b]

rsvp
