The Lottery
Californian Bill Helko was thrilled when he had the winning numbers in the local lottery, the first prize being $412,000. We would all be doing the happy dance right?
He straight away went and ordered a Porsche, booked a family holiday in Hawaii and had a champagne dinner with his wife and friends at an expensive Hollywood restaurant. You have to give it to ole dude for sharing the wealth
When he went to pick up the winnings he found that 9,097 others had also won first prize and his share of the jackpot was $45. Not even enough to cover the expensive dinner *cries for him*...lets pray he didn't quit his job as well.
Thanks For Nothing
An ambulance was called to the aid of James Ritchie, thirty, who was lying injured on a road outside Odell, Illinois. As it arrived on the scene, the ambulance skidded on the snow-covered roadway, then struck and killed Ritchie. O.o I think this speaks for itself... you just can't find good help these days *wibble*
