Well there's the POWERBALL too.....
MEGA MILLIONS NOW $1.6 BILLION, $904 MILLION CASH, and counting, whoa! Getting close to buying your sports franchise hockey maybe?
Good news. There’s another chance to become America’s newest billionaire.
There was no winner in Friday night’s Mega Millions drawing and the jackpot is now at least $1.6 billion for Tuesday’s drawing.
If the winner goes with the one-time cash option they will receive $904 million.
The winning numbers on Friday were 65-53-23-15-70 and the Mega Ball was 7.
The potential payout would be a record for Mega Millions.
No one has won the Mega Millions jackpot since July 24, when a group of 11 workers in California split $543 million.
The jackpot grew more than $400 million since Tuesday night, when the payout would have been $667 million.
Washington will also be a big winner. The federal government takes 25% before the check is handed to the winner, and collects remaining taxes when due. Most states also tax lottery winnings.
Don’t throw away your ticket if you don’t match all six numbers because there are secondary prizes worth up to $1 million.
Powerball holds its drawing Saturday night, with a potential prize of $470 million. The Powerball record jackpot was $1.586 billion, split between three winning tickets.

Let's see $904M after federal and state tax about $550M (+/-).
NHL, yes you could swing that 19 under $500M with AZ $186M and FLA $220M , MLB Tampa about $900M, NBA all $1B plus now, new soccer?
So if you wanted to be a jock owner it's doable I guess......smart move, eh?

We play only on Mondays if needed, the other day someone played $680 in front of my wife in line.......$680? You wonder if they really need that, even group plays.
Oh well that's why it's $1,600,000,000 and people are making plans to quit work and moving to Hawai'i.

If I won, I'd take a nice, big Sheet courtesy of Chipotle, put it in a gift-wrapped box with a nice bow on it, and put it on my boss's desk. I'd get video of him opening it up and put the tomfoolery on the Interwebs, right after looking at him and doing my best Dave Chappelle: "I'M RICH, BITCH!" as I left that shithole laughing.

I'd have to hook up a noise-maker with that like a M-80 for some *BOOM*.

Buy a place in Spain with a really decent AWD SUV that is small enough to negotiate a lot of those small in-town roads throughout Europe. Buy an Alpha 2 seater for the faster highways to other metro areas I'd like to go for the museums.
Get a place in the Caribbean or Hawaiian Islands for the winter months of Europe. And another small AWD SUV to get to out of the way beaches. Get some decent SCUBA gear to go in the SUV.
Give away the max possible to each kid, grandkid and sibling that the law allows every year. Make sure I claim my two kids are equal "cowinners" come claiming time to escape inheritance taxes later down the line.
Donate to a worthy cause such as a "Dump ? Trump" fund. LOL.?

I thought very hardly and strongly about making a critically unbiased (from both sides) documentary about the origins of communism and fascism, about how the soviet union under stalin sent people to forced labor camps in Siberia, and about the radical idealogical thinking of Europe and Germany's mass murder in general during this time.
You see, now you have people in their 20's, much like myself, who are confused in general. Some become nihilistic, some successful, and some radicalized. Too much ideological thinking happens today. People are much too far left, or much too far right, and don't think much in the center anymore. This chaos has been going on for a hundred years, and even a girl i talked to from Russia in class says the anti-comminists are fighting the communists for control, and both side ares radicalized. One person even murdered her close friend.
Where will we be in 100 years if this idealogical thinking keeps occurring on both sides? Will both the left and right clash again? Or can our society manage another 500-1000 years without a power struggle.
And the most important question of humanity, will we live to see the Browns win a superbowl?

Is that a joke?
If I were going to make a film, it would be about Napoleon's russian campaign. The heroic march, conquering Smolensk and Moscow, and how the war turns against an invisible enemy and the freezing winter when trying to reach back Smolensk (which they found out was devastated) and friendly lands.
It would be a contraposition of patriotism-survival, blind faith in a leader, comraderie-desperation, the human limits, the homeless, the importance of soldiers in a big scale war... If you ever read about it, it has a lot of food for thought.

Nah, it isn't a joke. Think Rebel without a cause meets Donnie Darko.
A film about Napoleon would be great. Not enough modern films out there.
Just imagine getting someone like Daniel Day Lewis playing Napoleon. I know he's retired but (damn) would that be great.
