Today’s MegaMillions Lottery draw is getting, um, interesting. Last time I looked, the jackpot stood at $640,000,000. That’s a lot of money. So, questions:

1. Do you have a dog in this fight?

2. If so, are you playing numbers you chose yourself, or are you playing the computer’s idea of randomly picked numbers?

3. Given that your odds of being struck by lightning are tremendously greater than winning the lottery, if you are playing the lottery tonight have you taken out lightning insurance or purchased a lightning rod?

Inquiring minds wanna know.
