There are many routes from southern to northern Illinois, and every one of them was congested to a crawl Monday night. Post 717 comin' outta the sky. David Sitting on my butt while others boldly go, Waiting for a message from a small furry creature from Alpha Centauri. |

Posting while not winning the Powerball Jackpot, $759 Million, lump sum after taxes about $336 Million, that boggles My mind. It would tickle my fancy. ![]() |

Posting while not winning the Powerball Jackpot, $759 Million, lump sum after taxes about $336 Million, that boggles My mind. If you had been the winner of this jackpot, you could have done all that with the odd fraction and still had the $758 million.

Well cash value after taxes is about $336 million. A totally safe investment could earn 4% per year at minimum. I would expect to be able to earn about 12-15% or more. But at 4% that would be $36,800 per day. Vic you just spend about 15 days worth of interest. And these are all high estimates (except the new bigger place. That could be a lot more. House I would build would likely be in the $20 million range. Land alone is about $15 million. Hey I live in an expensive area. I don't think anything i less than $2 million, and that is for something that is not water front. jeep repairs $5,000 Car repairs $5,000 New Mustang $25,000 Bigger place $250,000 upgrade to new place $250,000 hire mover $5,000 move $0 fix up current place $50,000 2017 prop tax $1,000 give to frenid $0 sign old place $0 sign quit claim deed $25 move him $5,000 post office $30 Total $596,055 ![]() |

What is a word made up of 4 letters, yet is also made up of 3. Sometimes is written with 9 letters, and then with 4. Rarely consists of 6, and never is written with 5. ![]() |

All right, time to get up and do something. One good idea would be to get gas before Harvey raises prices. David Sitting on my butt while others boldly go, Waiting for a message from a small furry creature from Alpha Centauri. |

All right, time to get up and do something. One good idea would be to get gas before Harvey raises prices. That's a wise suggestion. I just took your advice and paid $2.29/gal. ![]() |

Glad I filled up last night. It's already going up around here. Best price is $2.61. Even Costco is a few cents more. ![]() |

Forgot to figure in my discount cards. Checking again, there's a Shell at 3.8 miles that's 2.439 less .05 with card. David Sitting on my butt while others boldly go, Waiting for a message from a small furry creature from Alpha Centauri. |

Posting from home. Likewise. Should take my sleeping pills soon for what may be my last weekend at the museum, depending on my new work schedule. David Sitting on my butt while others boldly go, Waiting for a message from a small furry creature from Alpha Centauri. |
