I said to my wife last night..." first I'll buy a kick a** truck, then I'll buy a kick a** boat, then I'll buy a kick a** house to store it all.  What are you going to do with your $12.25M"  She was not amused  ;D

I had much the same conversation with the wife as had The Gilly,defiantly not received well ,she did point out that after the initial split 50/50 she could divorce me and get a good part of my 50%. decided not say any more especially after when asked why I like to fish so much I jokingly replied Menopause not a good joke (shes a red headed Italian)

finding your limits is fun, it can also be VERY painful.

If you care about Canada's future, get involved by holding your MLA's & MP's accountable!! don't just be sheep!!

There is a Russian short story called The Lottery Ticket, that you guys might enjoy (your experiences with your spouses are parallel to its plot).

My sister works with the wife of the guy who won the $24 million lottery ticket in Richmond.  I’m sure lots of people are trying to figure out how they are related to this long lost relative ;D
