Dictator - a person exercising absolute power, especially a ruler who has absolute, unrestricted control in a government without hereditary succession. Since a dictator, would have far more power than a president; what would be some of the things you would do or change?
*Serious or comical or outrageous .. as dictator you can always change your mind or add to it later*
No Mega Millions Winner, Jackpot Climbs to $1.6 Billion
Next drawing is Wednesday
It costs $2 to play the game, but the odds of winning the jackpot aren't good. The chance of matching all six numbers and taking home the grand prize is one in 302.5 million. (You are more likely to become the next president of the United States. Odds...1 in 10 million) The game became harder to win last October, when a redesign upped the price to $2, NBC News reported. The odds of winning the Mega Millions dropped from 1 in 258.9 million to 1 in 302.6 million, making it more likely that jackpots would rise to astronomical amounts. The redesign also gave players better odds of winning smaller prizes, like $1 million
If it seems that the lines have gotten longer with every lottery drawing or that jackpots have grown larger, that's because they have.
Mega Millions now stands as the largest jackpot in U.S. history after moving past the $1.586 billion Powerball drawing on January 13, 2016.
And sales figures are hard to exaggerate. One local Nebraska newspaper reports that tickets sold at a rate of about 400 per minute on Friday. In California, the lottery Thursday sold 5.7 million during the first half of the day. Mega Millions tickets can be purchased in 44 states, Washington, D.C., and the U.S. Virgin Islands
Even the Ancients predicted a WEB that would span the world for destruction (Original peoples in North America, Myans and Aztecs in South America and I think the Aboriginal people in Australia and New Zealand did also)
I agree. Especially after all the articles saying 'Canada wants to play a bigger part on the world stage'. Then they can't expect the United States or any (English speaking country) to run in and save them, when they comment or criticise or pass judgement, on world events. If the Saudis are pissed or pull up stakes .. oh well, welcome to that world stage.
Here is the next one... Ramadan in 2019 will start on Monday, the 6th of May (6/5/2019) and will continue for 30 days until Tuesday, the 4th of June.. Note that in the Muslim calander, a holiday begins on the sunset of the previous day, so observing Muslims will celebrate Ramadan on the sunset of Sunday, the 5th of May
A doctor? Damn.. what 3rd world was he from? Perhaps he was power tripping and argued over it because you didn't have him up on a pedestal and say "Yes doctor"
You know that old saying "Treat people the way you want to treated"?
The hell with that... (Just kidding).
For every nosey, way out of line question.. I fire one back (instead of answering it), just to give them a taste of their own medicine and watch their head spin
Asking about money.. usually sets them off. Especially men.
This is sick in so many ways. But what is standing out most is the student who signed an agreement with the school. His/her, and the parents rights have been violated. It is illegal and null and void, in the United States for a minor to enter into a contract of any kind without both parents signature. I hope there is a lawsuit.
Deep question. But too personal to answer online, because the cards we were dealt would have to go back to our parents (or even before).
I suppose anyone could say, they were dealt a bad hand. As an adult, my view is 'What have we overcome and become (with those cards). And what cards have we given our own children? I am certainly proud of mine.
