'somebody in delaware has my horse?.....'

ok, so i play the powerball lottery every wednesday and saturday.....just $1....it has become a joke on wednesdays....as i tell my daughter that i will be 'just a minute' as i run into the convenient store on our way home from church.....and she times me on her watch.....to see if it was, in fact, just a minute........the deal is......if i win, i will buy her a horse.........little chance of having to make good on this promise......but hope springs eternal.......so when the group of 30 folks won the powerball over the weekend.....they will get $2.2 mil apiece....our new joke is......somebody in delaware has my horse...............which is as it should be....so we do not have to feed it, groom, or clean up after it......and i could not see us moving....we live in my spouse's grandfather's house on the lake....too many family memories to pack up and move to beverly hills like the clampetts........so why do i still play...if i don't want to move or buy a horse...............there's the rub...........but i will figure it out should i ever win............
