August 27, 2001:  Will:  The Powerball Lotto paid four people $295 million this week.  Al:  That's a lot of losing tickets.  What kind of chump plays the lottery?  Skip:  Hey, dudes!  Guess what I won Saturday!  Al:  You have got to be kidding me!
August 29, 2001:  Will:  I can't believe you won the lottery, Skip.  Skip:  With my strategy, I couldn't lose!  Will:  Strategy?  What numbers did you pick?  Skip:  All of them.  I bought 80 million tickets!  Will:  Skip!  You lost money playing the lottery?  Skip:  Dude, everyone loses money playing the lottery!
August 31, 2001: Skip:  When the lottery goes over $200 million, I can make a profit by buying $80 million in tickets, provided no one else wins.  It's rich-guy gambling, dude!  In this case, I lost that gamble when four other people won, too.  But I like winning, just like all the other winners.  Will:  Uh-huh.  So what's the first thing you're going to do with your winnings?  Skip:  Pay off the trailer house!  Yee-ha!
