Lottery Update
Hey Sis, I have some good news and some bad news on the lottery front(aka my retirement fund). The good news is I won! The bad news is it's only $10. How would you like your $5? Loonies or a fiver? There is a big draw on Wednesday that I'm sure I'm going to win, so hang in there :) Cheers Don P.S. Pete, check out the Obama Dancers if you can and let us know if they are an act we should bring over here. D
