Hey Jeff!:)

Sounds like you all are having a blast! That's awesome mi amigo!:rock:

It has been an eternity since the last time I was in San Francisco ('97 I believe). On that trip also went up the coast to Monterey and all the way to Seattle WA. It was so much fun!

Hey Wabo,

Have you been over to Sausalito? It is a really great place. Just across the Golden Gate Bridge....

Mega Millions Makes History with $540 Million World Record Jackpot

The Mega Millions jackpot has reached historic proportions. With no jackpot winner in Tuesday’s drawing, the jackpot for March 30, 2012 is an estimated $540 million. This is the largest lottery jackpot in world history, surpassing the previous record of $390 million.

If one ticket matches all six numbers for the half-billion dollar mega-jackpot, the winner would have the choice of receiving the full jackpot in 26 annual payments of about $20.7 million, or a cash option of approximately $389.8 million.

“Friday night’s Mega Millions drawing will truly be a spectacular event in lottery history and provides an unprecedented opportunity for players to take a chance on a half-billion dollar dream for just the $1 price of a ticket,” said Gary Grief, executive director of the Texas Lottery and lead director for the Mega Millions group.

More than 4.7 million tickets won prizes in Tuesday’s drawing, including four tickets that each won $1 million and 43 tickets that each won $250,000.

The jackpot for the March 30 drawing was originally estimated at $476 million, but with stronger than anticipated sales nationwide, it became clear that the jackpot for Friday’s drawing would be much larger.

[Show spoiler]

The odds of winning the jackpot are approximately one in 176 million. The odds of winning any of the Mega Millions prizes are approximately 1 in 40.

Mega Millions is played in 44 jurisdictions (42 states plus the District of Columbia and the Virgin Islands). Drawings are held Tuesdays and Fridays at 11:00 p.m. Eastern Time; 10:00 p.m. Central Time; 9:00 p.m. Mountain Time and 8:00 p.m. Pacific Time.

RELEASE DATE: 3/29/2012

That "Cash Option" of $389+ Million is Before taxes, but even still, you're prob looking at a Quarter of a BILLION in TAKE HOME money. :eek: :ohnoes: :panic:

Hey Wabo,

Hope you are having fun and getting nice weather.

May 10-15 I believe, should be a fun trip assuming we don't spend the entire time just at the wedding and scurrying all over the state. Debating whether or not to take some Cowboys gear along to flaunt at a passing 49er. :p

Lol. Yes, you should sport the Cowboys gear.:D

Hey there, phansson.

How's it going?

Yes, we've been to Sausalito before. It's funny you mention it, because we're spending the day there tomorrow.

Yeah that was a very fun trip.:) I dunno when I'll go on another long trip again. When I eventually do, It'll most likely be a European trip to Spain, Italy, and Switzerland.

Thanks, Travis.

Spent the day in Chinatown, Little Italy, rode the cable car and ended up back on the Wharf. It was a long day and the dogs are barking.
