      - I was making fun of the alledged million dollars he collected, but Stew is probably more media commentary than politics - zeitgeist Apr 5, 11:33 3
        
        Stewart is running the SuperPAC now! -- nm - loosilu Apr 5, 11:35 2
        
        that was just for a week while Colbert ran for president under the pizzaman's name (see how fleeting fame is already forgotten) and then they milked.. - zeitgeist Apr 5, 11:38 1

- haven't followed it lately, but, the lottery can confirm it was bought there right, and no-one else from Maryland has claimed it, right? - Andie Apr 5, 11:07 12
  - It's been confirmed it was sold at a 7-11 down the street from the McD's where she works. -- (link) - mara Apr 5, 11:40
  - [deleted] 4
    - perhaps whoever really won is busy getting their team of advisors together. - Diva Apr 5, 11:19 1
      - if I were the real winner, I might appreciate the distraction she was creating. -- nm - loosilu Apr 5, 11:20
    - I believe they have 6 months to claim, then the money goes back into the system to be up for grabs again? -- nm - Strongbad Apr 5, 11:18 1
      - then the pot is claimed by the state(s) and they keep it -- nm - zeitgeist Apr 5, 11:30
  - I can't find whether she was confirmed to have bought her tickets there at that time. -- nm - loosilu Apr 5, 11:09
  - The lottery can confirm store location and time of purchase -- nm - Strongbad Apr 5, 11:08 4
    - so, if that matches her story, there is actually a chance she's not wacko. which is, in itself, kind of crazy. -- nm - Andie Apr 5, 11:09 3
      - another weird thing I just learned by reading the story ... she needs a Creole translator. apparently doesn't speak English. -- nm - loosilu Apr 5, 11:11 2
        
        That's not that weird. There are plenty of people in the country who don't speak it, or at least not very well. -- nm - Don Homer Apr 5, 11:14 1
        
        I know that, just didn't know it about her. -- nm - loosilu Apr 5, 11:16
- all she has to do is produce the ticket. she clearly doesn't have it. -- nm - loosilu Apr 5, 11:05 13
  - [deleted] 12
    - I can just see her trying to go back and retreive her purse from her locker -- nm - zeitgeist Apr 5, 11:11 9
      - seriously I think this is all a ruse - until she figures out her best shot legally in keeping it all. -- nm - Epiphany Apr 5, 11:22 8
        
        It wouldn't make sense to say it was there. I'm sure the co-workers have torn the place to shreds by now. -- nm - loosilu Apr 5, 11:23 7
        
        she just wants them to think it's anywhere BUT with her -- nm - Epiphany Apr 5, 11:25 6
        
        that's what I figured. tricksy. maybe she does have it. -- nm - loosilu Apr 5, 11:31 5
        
        they teach us a investigators - what a person 1st says after the event takes place is usually correct - Epiphany Apr 5, 11:34 4
        
        You'd better put me in a room and slap me a little just to be sure -- nm - con_carne Apr 5, 11:40 1
        
        okay. Just a " little". - Epiphany Apr 5, 11:50
        
        cool. I must remember not to lie to you. :) -- nm - loosilu Apr 5, 11:36
        
        that's an interesting thing to know! -- nm - Andie Apr 5, 11:35

~ off to never-never land! ~ -- nm - Beryllium Apr 5, 11:04 2
- LYC: My favorite about a baseball game is the player's theme music when they come to bat. - Strongbad Apr 5, 11:07 1
  - We haven't done a "what would your theme music be" poll lately -- nm - Beryllium Apr 5, 11:08
