Can you imagine, a lottery where one of us could win over $1 billion dollars! Incredible. $2 and a dream.

Ever think what you'd do if you won?

Between the Feds and Gov Malloy the govt would get a huge chunck.

Besides helping out my family and friends - what would I do?

Purchase everything on my Amazon wish list.
Purchase the complete Topps baseball card sets 1955 thru 1969
Start a new career

1.) Help finance the release of a hundred or so Zappa concerts complete from the vault "Hello ZFT - I'd like to go into business"
2.) Start my own business and with the help of a VP or three go to each and every Yankee game for the next 20 years to scout them...every game except the ones at Fenway...I wouldn't go near that....
3.) Help my friends here fill in gaps in their collections
4.) Get about a dozen more basset hounds.


I'd never have to drive though the ice & snow anymore...wouldn't have to shovel it or move it...heck I'd never have to see it as I'd be somewhere down south.

Well, it's three dollars if you select the "multiplier" option!

It's a lot of CDs I could buy.

quite possibly every CD ever made!

and a building to put them in......

Just buy the RnR Hall of Fame and throw Wenner out and finally let in real rock n roll bands!

Either that or start our own Hall and put it right in Cleveland. Board members must be from here. The IMWAN mods could chair.

Give Dave Clark a large sum of money to purchase the masters from him.

Start an organization called Save Every Dog, and try to do so.

That would buy a lot of chicken.

First and foremost I'd hire the best therapists & doctors to help my mom get over what's ailing her or at least to cope with it the best she can.

Then after helping some family members, I'd add on several rooms to my house. I'd build a huge music room and soundproof it.

I'd have a big shed or small barn built in the back or side yard for all the neighborhood stray cats who seem to make a home of my car-port in bad weather.

I'd hit Discogs, Double Crown Records, Kool Kat Musik & the Surfer Joe store for some fine music. And I'd make sure Landlocked Music & other local record ships stayed in business while I'm alive ha ha.

All I know is it wouldn't change me, I'd still be good ole JohnG!

I'd supersize my McDonald's lunch.

I would pay all my bills and the house off.
Pay for both kids colleges.
Definitely quit my job.
Decide where to live and maybe rent this house.
I might publish comics with stories and art by IMWANKers.

And treat myself to one of those delicious apple pies for dessert, what the heck!

I've never played the lottery....and I still won't.

Not even $2? For about the cost of a good cup of coffee, you could win $1 billion dollars, that's worth a shot!

Hey - let's not get crazy here!

(Cherry pie, maybe, although with that kind of scratch, I could just go to Arby's and get a cherry turnover.)

Jimbo already has every CD ever made. He just needs the place to store them.

I don't work in an office but how many of you guys will participate in an office pool?

I would visit Jimbo and JohnG a heck of a lot more than I do these days.

Any time, Todd!

I'd get the large popcorn at the movies. And that $5 bag of M&M's.
