Gotta love an optimist!

In-effing-credibal. I wake up this morning, open the snail mail from last night, and the first letter i open is from the Spanish Lottery, La Primitiva. Reading through the letter I find out that my name has been submitted as part of the annual telecommunications promotion program.

And guess what, I am a winner. I have won 516,912.53 euros. That's $692,523 dollars with today's exchange rate. All I have to do is fill out this form and mail it back and they will automatically deposit the winnings into my bank.

I am besides myself. I can't believe how lucky I am. Why, I don't even remember buying a lottery ticket but i am a big winner. But wait, it gets better. I open the next letter and guess what? My wife won the Spanish Lottery as well. Her prize is also 516,912.53 euros. Can you believe it, two winners in the same house for a grand total of $1,385,046 and neither of us actually bought a ticket. This is surely my lucky day.

I won a house last week in the mail as well. Seems as if the winning is spreading all over

I did win £15,000,000 a long time ago... Back when dodgy fraud was emerging from it's embryonic stages into full fruition. What a load of codswallop that was!

However, one of the best things I did actually win was a pair of tickets to Hyde Park to watch Live8, and on the train ride home, I won a 20GB ipod after buying a pack of gum. Bargain weekend

Congrats! I'd take a vacation, somewhere in a Latin country maybe.

New York to Spain, 5 days/4 nights plus flight going for $800 departing end of of February.

I know because Ive been looking at them

Boston to the UK, Easter time, $750 pp return. Not bad at all - haven't bought them yet, still scouting about. That would be for 2 weeks or so. Air France too, so not a crappy airline. Who would you be flying with?

The flights are setup with Air lingus from the last time i checked.

Why buy a ticket when I already won... Twice... And I just found out that my neighbor won as well. Can you imagine, three winners all within 200 feet of one another. What are the odds...

...Air lingus ....

I am so mature. I can't help but chuckle every time I read/hear of this airline.

Glad to know that.

I was beating around the bush.

I was thinking something more like Con Air Lingus, after the movie.
