Poor Alabama one of the only states with no lottery even though the consensus of people want it and voted for it. The state house will not bring it to the table. They got their hands in the Native American casino's and don't want anything infringing on the lining of their pockets.

Us neither.  Wife went to buy 2 tickets and they told her the drawing had already been done by 10:30pm.  Don't know what time they do the drawing, but most lottery ticket sales don't close until 10:45pm in Florida, then the drawing is usually held at 11pm, except for a couple that have a 7pm drawing on select days.

Now maybe we'll have another chance, but winning it, there I always have doubts, I NEVER win anything big, just a pittance here or there from time to time, usually nothing over $50 if I'm lucky on scratch off cards. 

Tried Publisher's Clearing House, but I won't even bother with that one ever again, their games CHEAT!   Had one do it to me, so I won't even touch them now.  

Plus I see a ton of negative reviews on them too, they even got sued by several states because of how they make it sound like you're going to win or have won, and you hadn't won a thing, and they are now doing that same EXACT practice again.   

Some companies never learn 'til they are forced out of business because of their idiotic tactics, then it's too late.   If that happened to PCH, wouldn't bother me one bit.

Would they not get a cut of the lottery also?

Yes, but that would be a "managed" cut with record keeping and all.

Me, a large plot {15-20 acres - NO NEIGHBORS {close by at least}! or HOA!} of property and build a home on it all set up with RGB lights installed around all windows, doors, garage door and roof area.  Also quite a lot of CTB16PC controllers mounted and wired in the attic to outlets outside in the yard and along the bottom area of the house for some of my Blow Molds and other AC powered display items.   There would also be speakers mounted in the ceiling all over the house, each one volume controller so they could be turned off if needed, as well as outdoor speakers mounted {built in} all around the house.  Yes, I'd still use an FM transmitter as well.   I'd also have a parking lot so folks could park facing the house and watch the display and listen in on their car radio or walk through the display, their choice.

No visible controllers, no visible cat5 cabling, and limited extension cords to trip over!    That would be MY DREAM HOME.    I'd just have to hope Light-O-Rama had enough products in stock to get the job completed as the house was built.

The attic would be my "work cave" for sequencing, testing and for my indoor O gauge train layout, so it'll have a mini kitchen including small sink, microwave, regular sized refrigerator/freezer and of course a bathroom so I don't have to leave for anything while I'm working or playing in there. 

And of course I won't forget to have a very large "G"arden Train Layout out in front of the house for use during the Holiday times too!

Let's see, I'll need a power panel located in the attic for everything and from LOR I'll probably need about 150+ 12V RGB Controllers in the green, white or black{?} boxes{pre-assembled} with 100 RGB lights each port, guessing around 50+ new CTB16PC GEN 3 controllers, 15-20 High Speed Adapters and about 200 replacement RGB strands for repairs or replacement.   Then I'll buy 2 mini-vans, one will be as it comes, the other I'll have customized for use for Holidays/Parade use using CMB24 controllers and RGB lights from LOR, the lights will be mounted outside and inside the mini vans body.    I'll make Disney's floats look very pale by comparison! LOL

Have a I spent the approximate 500 million, {well maybe 300 million after taxes} cash payout yet? ROFL

And what's left my wife can furnish the house with furniture.   Oh yes, there will also be RGB Lights along the interior rooms of the house as well, nothing like some really cool mood lighting that you can control how they light.   And they'd be on a separate computer system for indoors vs the outdoor ones. But they could be combined if wanted during specific times of year, like Halloween or Christmas.

Anyone else like to have a house and yard set up like that? 

It'd definitely be the coolest looking house in the neighborhood, if there is one...neighborhood that is!B):D
