Playlist: Music to Lose the Lottery To

Well, last night the world record lottery jackpot was drawn (MegaMillions - $640 Million)... Once again i didn't win (damn).  i matched the MegaBall on one ticket (yeah $2).  This got me thinking what songs am i going to play next time the lottery goes north of $300 Million. 

Delusional Daydream 2: What If i Won This Lottery

i was wondering what i would do if i won the MegaMillions jackpot on Friday March 30th.  For those of you outside the US, MegaMillions is a lottery (kind of like a national lottery).  The jackpot is currently at a record $500 million (or $.5 Billion if you prefer).  The cash option is currently $359.4 million (before taxes).

Losery Post of Loserdom: Videos Watched in February

i don't really have a life (and too much time on my hands).  One of these days i will have to get around to saving blog posts in word (i don't know why i should - there is nothing worth saving in here).  So, what did i "watch" in February 2012 (while not playing video games)?  One of these days, i will have to do a post of all the movies i remember ever seeing (theatre, DVD, TV, etc). 

Seattle's New Arena: It Probably Won't Happen

So, i have been reading (a little bit) recently about Chris Hansen's purported desire to build an arena. 

The plan's massive catch is the desire for both an NBA team (which he would try to buy) and an NHL team (which Hansen seems to have no interest in buying).  i read that as an IFF contidion (if and only if).  i really don't see that many relocation candidates on the market in either sport. 

Hiding From Social Media in Plain Sight

Am i an invisible hominid?  i think so. 

So i Have Been Thinking About Tablets Again...

For some reason the concept of eventually getting a Tablet PC came up in my mind again.  i have been looking at the current crop of tablets on the market.  What did i find out?  i found out that the tablet with all the features i would like to have is not on the market at my price range.  So, if i do wind up eventually purchasing one, i would have to compromise on some things.  Here is some of the criteria i used

If Seattle got an NBA/NHL team (Delusional Daydream)

i visited a Seattle Mariners fan blog recently (initialled LL) and they had a post on what to name a team if Seattle got an NBA and NHL franchise (speculated to be Sacramento Kings and Phoenix Coyotes). 

That got me thinking.. what would i do if i hit a massive Powerball/MegaMillions jackpot (easily clearing $150 million after taxes).  Now you see why i used the term "delusional daydream".  If i had that much money, it would be kind of fun to own part of a sports franchise (minority interest).
