You have a much better chance of being hit by lightning than winning
anything in the Florida Lottery.  A few years ago, they added 5 more numbers
to the mix and the chances of getting even 3 numbers is low.  They also took
the payout for 3 or more numbers much lower.
If you are from Jersey or NYC, like I am, I remember much better odds on
winning the numbers game from the mob, and they gave better service too,
they came around to collect.
The lottery is the MOST EFFICIENT tax on poor people that has ever been
invented.  Florida govt has gotten much too greedy because they keep over
half of the take.

Sorry about the off topic rant.
